Today I’m popping-in to share more furniture and design history with you, exploring one of my all time favorites, Biedermeier style furniture. I’ll always remember the first time I saw slides of Biedermeier style furniture in my History of Interiors classes in college. There was just something so distinctly modern about the style…

Today I want to introduce an au courant design style to you, that is Swedish Gustavian style. I’m seeing iconic Gustavian style furniture featured more and more in popular design mags, and even whole homes dedicated to this style. So why is this style so hot right now…

I’ve been looking forward to visiting Scott Antique Fair in Atlanta since we moved here, and we finally made it out last month. This market took me right back to my time living in Paris and visiting the Paris Flea Markets (the Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen is the very best).

The day is finally here, when I get to share the results of our Master Bedroom renovation with you. Before we go forward, let’s look back and remember how far we’ve come in just a few short weeks….

This week I wanted to share some pointers on how to reupholster an antique chair, including a few basic steps and the tools I use most frequently on reupholstery projects…

Signing on for week two of the One Room Challenge. In case you missed it, last week I announced that I’ll be restoring our Master Bedroom over the next several weeks. As promised, this week I’d like to share my design plans with you…

I’m pleased to share that after two years in the design & planning & stages, my textile collection Collection II: Bohemia is finally available…

I’m back again with week two of the One Room Challenge. This week I’m excited to finally share my design plans for our Dining Room…

Here we are! We’ve made it through another round of the One Room Challenge. Hallelujah and PTL! This round was particularly challenging as I tackled two separate spaces, our Guest Bedroom & Our Second Floor Staircase Landing…

You know when you're too busy working to sit down and write a blog post, that you're probably at the midpoint in the project. This is week four of the One Room Challenge, so I’d say we’re at the midway point of the challenge, right?

Today I’m excited to share with you the reveal of our Front Porch Makeover. Remember earlier this year I shared a few home goals with you, including a refresh to our lovely southern style wraparound porch? Well, we’ve been hard at work this winter…

D-O-N-E! Here we are at the final week of the One Room Challenge and I'm so excited to share the final reveal of my Easy Elegant Family Room with you today…

And just like that, here we are at Week 2 of the One Room Challenge. Let me tell you, I am feeling the pressure this week. I’ve hit that crucial point in the project, where I’m over it with the dust and the mess…

I wouldn’t say that my short time living in Paris made my style what it is today, but that experience certainly played a central role in informing my ideas on beauty and design. Here, I’d like to share a few observations learned from the French, and how these observations changed my design style.
