living room details
Thank you so much for all the super sweet comments and emails about my living room post yesterday! I am overwhelmed by your kind words and have my butt in gear to show the rest of my house soon, I promise! In the meantime, a lot of you had questions about the products I used,…
my living room sneak peek!
I had planned on posting a fun DIY today, but since I’ve been getting a lot of emails asking to see more of my home, I am posting some sneak peeks of my living room, instead! Even though we built this house two years ago, there is a lot of stuff left to do, thus…
antlers aweigh!
I’m currently working with a dear friend and client on the renovation of her living room and kitchen. Her taste is both classic and eclectic, which has been a lot of fun for me-we stick to timeless pieces and punch them up with fun, bold accessories and fabrics. It just so happens that her hubby…
a great before and after
I love Pinterest- not only for the bevy of inspiration you can find for nearly EVERYTHING, but also because it leads to design blogs to pore over. Such was the case when I stumbled upon Ashley of Smitten Design. I love a good before and after and the nursery she designed for her adorable baby…
kate jackson, take 2
I’m a huge fan of Rhode Island-based designer Kate Jackson’s casual, yet tailored, modern style – I posted some of her amazing spaces before, but when I saw this eclectic beach cottage in Watch Hill, RI, over the weekend, I fell in love all over again! Charming details like beadboard ceilings, Peter Dunham fabrics and…
black and white in nantucket
Out of all my magazine subscriptions, I have to say that New England Home has been killing it lately! When I saw the eclectic living room in the Nantucket home of interior designers Lee Bierly and Christopher Drake, my jaw dropped! Black and white accents, softly weathered furniture and touches of Americana blend together seamlessly…
for the kiddos
I’ve got babies on the brain big time lately. Not for me, personally (sorry, Mom!). I’m working on two nurseries and a big girl room for a lovely little lady who just graduated from crib to her own bed, and I am knee-deep in all-things-kiddos. Truth be told, I love working on spaces for little…
50 shades of grey
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Mine was packed, but fun – Bunco, Blues Fest and the rest of the time spent devouring all three books in the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy. Since I need another weekend to catch up on all the sleep I didn’t get while reading, today I thought…
shaker style chic
A good friend of mine recently asked me to come aboard and help with the renovation of the living room and kitchen of her 1960’s rancher. Like us, they are military and will more than likely not be in the house much longer than four or five years, but the kitchen is in some serious…
marine industrial
If you’ve been reading my blog for any length of time, you know I love me some tiny cottages and would choose one over a McMansion any day of the week (and twice on Sundays!) So, when I saw this waterfront beach home in Marin County, California, in the latest issue of House Beautiful, I…
set a chic (and cheap!) outdoor table
Summer is my favorite time of the year to entertain. I love bringing the indoors outside to enjoy a yummy meal with my friends in the warm summer sun or under a sky of stars (and a ton of candles!). So when my good friend asked for help setting a beautiful outdoor table for…
happy 4th!
I can’t think of a better way to celebrate our nation’s Independence Day than with good food and great friends. John Derian’s celebration at his Cape Cod home in Bon Appetit is my kind of get together – low key, casual and relaxed. Oh, and it helps when the party’s right on the beach! Below…
