I am delighted to introduce you to the woman behind the rug and and linen brands Dash & Albert and Pinecone Hill.\xa0 Annie Selke is a true powerhouse of an entrepreneur and she\u2019s also a lovely human being.\xa0 I remember when I first first encountered her Dash & Albert rugs, years ago, when I was poking around in specialty home decor shops in Maine.\xa0 I thought to myself, wow, those are not fun and colorful, I\u2019ll be they will also stand the test of time.\xa0 And I was right!\xa0 Annie\u2019s aesthetic is classic and timeless and elegant, but it\u2019s also really, really fun.\xa0 Fast forward to this interview and my visit to meet her and her staff at her headquarters in Lenox, MA.\xa0 Her staff, by the way, love her, which says a lot about any business owner.\xa0 We met in her office and toured her warehouses and I also got to stay in her beautiful inn, decked out with all of her fabrics.\xa0
