A few weeks ago, I was asked if I could name 5 words that describe myself. Every word that came to mind seemed trite. Okay, we have creative…but that one’s obvious. Artsy…but that’s the same as creative. Hmmm. How could 5 little words escape me? Could I really not describe who I was? Can you? After some consideration, I ca[...]
Happy Thursday! Gawd I love putting together a mixtape, and this one has been playing on heavy rotation. I popped in a few oldies and some new jams that I recently stumbled upon. This afternoon, I'll be enjoying a cocktail or two while listening to this one outside...soaking the last bit of sunshine before the snow heads our way. If you s[...]
A year ago today, I was in San Fransisco attending the Design Influencers Conference. Life was still normal albeit Covid was the talk of the town. All the attendees packed into rooms sitting shoulder to shoulder listing to Nate Berkus and Young Huh give advice to interior designers and home decor bloggers like myself. A group of us went[...]
Over lockdown, I made it my mission to grow on TikTok. If you've been on this short-form video platform, then you may already know that TikTok puts you in common interest buckets. If you start liking videos created by dermatologists, you're put into a skincare bucket. If you start liking home decor content, you're put into the interior de[...]
This is a post that I like to write once or twice a year...last year can be found here. It's easy for me to forget you know more about what my house looks like and nothing about me personally. So let's get into it! I kinda sorta believe in all that woo-woo crystal stuff and manifesting good energy during a full moon. And yes, I th[...]
The mix of scrolling Facebook and the COVID-19 coop up has caused me (and many others) a lot of anxiety. All the fighting and speculation. I’d had it. But there were a few choice Facebook Friends that were making me laugh. One gentleman in particular really raised the bar when it came to posting. His name Scott Wostal...we went to high[...]
Today's post was supposed to be about pretty outdoor home decor to zhush up your patio, but all that changed when I read that the Payroll Protection Program (PPP Loans) funding designed to help small businesses during the COVID-19 crisis has run out of money. This is not a democrat versus republican post, but rather an open letter to our[...]
In case you haven't heard the news, it was just announced that I will be one of the One Room Challenge Spring 2020 featured designers! Holy scream emoji! Exciting right!?!?!? When I first discovered the One Room Challenge, six some years ago, I was in the middle of the guest bedroom makeover in our old house and completely befuddled why[...]
It's quite the honor to be part of the Better Homes & Gardens Style Maker event. Last year I was invited but it was a bust...if you saw my Instagram Stories, you know that I became deathly ill the night before with the flu, stuck in my hotel room. Cooper and Zoe got it before I left, and at 2 AM, the day of Style Maker, I became the n[...]
