Our Design Plans: Mudroom
I’ve never had a mudroom before and I feel like I’ve been missing out all my life. You’re telling me that there’s a room in one’s house dedicated to storing your wet umbrellas, muddy boots and dirty dog supplies – all in an effort to keep the rest of the house pristine?! I’M SOLD!!
Our Design Plans: Laundry Closet
I am very excited to share this upgrade with you all. When we purchased this house nearly 2 years ago, a busted washer and dryer greeted us at the back door. The appliances were sitting on shaky ground in the area between the makeshift mudroom and kitchen. We quickly replaced the damaged set, but their location stayed the same as we didn’t yet have a new hook up…
The Best 7 Flea Markets In The World
I toyed around with the title of this post a bit. Do I say these are simply my favorite flea markets? Are they the ones you “absolutely need to see?” Yes and YES! The truth is, these are just about the best dang flea markets around – and I should know; I’ve shopped a lot of flea markets in my day…
Reveal: A Very Vibrant Victorian
I am so excited to share this project with you all. These clients came to me over a year ago, via a very extensive Google search, after a move to Philadelphia from Park Slope. They had recently purchased a lovely 1800 Victorian Home and needed a designer’s touch to infuse their style into the space. As avid art collectors, they came with a bevy of beautiful pieces, which they wished to display around the home…
Design Ideas From KBIS
The first post was getting a little too long for my liking, but I still have SO MUCH to share about what I saw at KBIS. I was totally inspired by all of the saturated colors at the show. You might be thinking that a kitchen and bath show would be pretty boring, maybe a little too white – and you’d be wrong. There were shocking and bold colors in nearly every booth I visited…
Good Bones Abode One Year Update
This blog post has been a long time coming. If you’ve been following along here and on Instagram, you’re likely “in the know” with where things stand with the house. I’m not sure what the exact date was, but this month we’re celebrating the one year anniversary of us living in our new house…
Signature Style: Stranger Art
It’s so secret – I’m into some funky artwork. My favorite subject is PEOPLE. I love finding vintage oil paintings of unfamiliar faces – or what I like to call stranger art…
Signature Style: Fearless Wallpaper
For this installment of Signature Style, I’ll be discussing Fearless Wallpaper – and what it can do for your space. As you scroll through some of these images, you may be reminded of this post. Well, to be fair, my favorite projects are the ones that include a few of my favorite themes – not just one…
Before and After: My Powder Room
such a request. While it’s not for everyone, it is for me. This is the wild wallpaper of my dreams and I am still so obsessed with it…
Before and After: My Home Office
When we moved into our house, there was this awkward little room off of the dining room. The room had gross, red paper tile. Kitchen cabinets hung on the walls. It was a tight space, but there was potential for it to turn into valuable square footage. We envisioned it being the perfect place to keep a computer and the piles of paperwork that comes with being an adult…
