Phew! Man, the past week has flown by. Radio silence has ensued (sorry about that...it's not you, it's me), but I swear I'm not sitting on the sofa eating bon-bons watching Days Of Our Lives. (Is that show even on anymore? In college was addicted to it.) Anyhoo, I've been moving around furniture, styling vignettes, giving the UPS man hug[...]
Late last Spring I gave both my primary bedroom and guest room a major makeover. I was on design project overload, and oddly, it seemed like every other blogger on the planet was doing the same. What a strange coincidence. Everyone I knew was suddenly tearing their homes apart and documenting the process. Why are you guys stealing my thu[...]
A good portion of the decor in my home is vintage. Guests that visit often ask me where I got this vase, that painting, or fancy rattan lounger. Much to their surprise, I know where each piece was purchased, who I purchased it from, and more often than not, I have a story to go along with that particular piece. But there are a few things[...]
If you've been watching my Instagram, you've probably seen a couple of sneak peeks of the guest bedroom makeover. I moved towards a look that was out of my comfort zone. Right before teaming up with Decorist, I noticed I was obsessing over white and neutral spaces. Pinning them like I was on fire. Decorist hooked me up with As[...]
Dear Emily Henderson, You'll be happy to know I've finally received some pillow help from the gals at Unison Home. I stopped into the store for a visit and pillow lesson last week, and just to make sure I had mastered the art of mixing and matching, they were kind enough to stop over to the house. I also might have bribed them with[...]
Some of you already know, but I have 99 problems, and pillows might be #1. Just call me Aunt Fossi with the coordination of a T-Rex, dancing drunk on the table with hot pink lipstick...read pillow problems, and I swear it'll make sense. All photos by John Sturdy Anyhoo, back to pillows...mixing all the patterns, colors, s[...]
A couple of days ago, Unison stopped over to have a cocktail at a little pillow party I hosted (Part 1 of that to come this Wednesday). But we got a little crazy and played around a bit with my bar cart styling too. After all, the bar cart is an entertaining essential. Unison's ultra modern design really jives with my old me[...]
It started out as one tiny air plant purchased at The Renegade Craft Fair. Just one. One that I knew I would probably kill. One that let out a tiny scream of fear when it saw me approach. One that I took home and forgot to water. One that I accidentally left overnight in a bowl of water. Subconsciously making up for the week prior. One t[...]
When I gave my guest bedroom a makeover, I went out of my comfort zone and decided to go for a more white and neutral space. Zero color. Something earthy. I had to put a lot of trust in my interior designer, Ashley Redmond, because, for me, this was foreign waters. I was slightly nervous it would turn into a very sterile-looking space.[...]
