There are several blogs I follow which truly get me excited
when I see a new post has been published.
These blogs are filled with a multitude of beautiful images, lots of inspiration,
along with well written and thought out text.
I learn something new each time I visit and many times find myself going
back to reread the posts again and again.
Segreto Secrets, the RDH September blog of the month is one of these special
blogs.
Many of you may be familiar with Leslie Sinclair and Segreto Finishes through Leslie’s book Segreto: The Secrets to Finishing Beautiful Interiors.
It is a fabulous 300 page book filled with incredible photos
of some of Segreto Finishes best projects.
The book is full of inspiration and shares the secrets to fine finishing
and how it can transform a room.
I purchased my copy a while back and have to agree with all
the positive reviews I have seen. The book is truly wonderful! (A link to
purchase the book is available on Leslie’s blog.)
Segreto Finishes is located in Houston Texas and offers a
wide variety of decorative painting and plastering on almost any surface you
can imagine – walls, ceilings, furniture, cabinets and more.
Leslie’s company has rightly received national acclaim and
has been published in many leading décor magazines including Veranda, Beautiful
Homes, Southern Living, and Houston Lifestyle and Home. Below (and scattered throughout this post) are a few of my favorite photos of her
work.
One of the biggest changes at Segreto Finishes is their new
office space. For years, Leslie has been
working from her home and recently purchased and renovated a 1950’s ranch. This
project is the perfect illustration of how transformative Leslie’s work can
be. Here is the house before:
Here is the new office today.
What an amazing difference.

There are many more incredible projects to see at Segreto Secrets
so please be sure to visit Leslie and leave a comment letting her know you
stopped by. (Leslie also has a business website filled with more amazing pictures which can be found here.) She is super nice and would be thrilled! Segreto Secrets is one of my
favorite blogs and I know you will love it too!

Stunning spaces, Stacy! I love that dining room.
Wow Stacy. Just incredible. I'm putting her book at the top of my must have list. That ranch transformation is spectacular. Good for her! I love seeing women succeed.
There hasn't been anything I've ever seen that I didn't love when I see Segreto's pictures of their work! It is always incredible and makes me wish they were right here in Birmingham! Loved everything you showed us on this post! Have a great weekend!

Fabulous pick! I'm a huge fan of Leslie's work and blog. I have told Leslie that I'd love to collaborate with her on a future job. Waiting for the right client ;) Thanks for featuring Segreto.
Cheers,

I bought her book on Amazon in the beginning of the year and she sent me a hand written note inside. That was so sweet. I also sent one of her books as a gift to someone recovering from surgery. I never thought to check out her blog. Thanks Stacy.
We have her book and love what she does with finishes...great blog pick!
Stacy a wonderful review and it does seem everything Leslie and her team touches turns to gold!
Her book is felled with a lifetime of ideas and finishes!
