Less than a year ago I adopted my first dog. I had dogs growing up, and could write a tome about my love for them, but had never had all the responsibility that comes with having a dog of your own. My fiancé and I have been together almost a decade (!) and had been… Continue reading Modern Dog Accessories
Mentally, I am constantly redecorating my apartment. Although my fiancé, my bank account and my amount of free time can sometimes pose obstacles, I have a new idea for my living space almost every single day. It’s not that I am unhappy with my home, it’s just that my style is always evolving and changing… Continue reading The search for a new coffee table
Ok, last up in the Mother’s Day Gift Guide series: The Perfect Hostess. We all know (or have) those moms who have an uncanny ability to make others feel welcome in their homes. They’re the ones who always have their guests’ favorite drinks on hand, or set that amazing tablescape for family gatherings, or just… Continue reading Mother’s Day Gift Guide Series: Volume 3
In my experience, pretty much any kitchen item makes a perfectly acceptable Mother’s Day gift. Pot holders, coffee cups, aprons; all good. On a side note, when I was young, I gave my dad a coffee mug every single Father’s Day for about 10 years. The wonderful and sweet pop that he is, he still… Continue reading Mother’s Day Gift Guide Series: Volume 2
Mother’s Day is one of my absolute favorite days of the year. The joy it brings me is only equaled by its brother holiday, Father’s Day. As an opportunity for brunching, giggles and heaping love on someone who truly deserves it, it’s just a day that I inevitably come out of feeling good. Leading up… Continue reading Mother’s Day Gift Guide Series: Volume 1
I am not what you would describe as a fashionista. I like clothes, I admire certain designers and, like anyone, I fantasize about a closet the size of my apartment with a perfectly curated selection of color-coordinated clothing. Unforunately, in my profession, there’s not much use for stylish clothes. I wear a uniform of chef… Continue reading Put a little spring in your step! A roundup of my favorite sneakers for spring
So, in framing up the artwork for my bedroom gallery wall the other day, I decided I am sorely in need of a typography print. I looked at my collection and it all felt a little too…pretty. I need something with hard lines, bold shape, classic Helvetica for gods sake! I love how typography adds… Continue reading Font-ed House: Choosing a typography print
A few months ago I ordered a couple of really cute prints from this curated online shop. I’m planning a gallery wall for the wallpaper accent wall in the bedroom, and I wanted some fun prints that would fit the Palm Springs/desert/Scandinavian vibe we’re going for in that room. In line with that thinking, I decided… Continue reading Framing an Engineering Print
Do you ever get so obsessed with something that you legitimately don’t want anyone else to know about it? You just want to keep it your own little secret and horde it and pet it and stare at it all night? This totally creepy sentiment is exactly why I must share this obsession and hear… Continue reading A current obsession
As I mentioned recently, I am going to be adding a removable wallpaper accent wall in my bedroom soon (hopefully). This will be my second foray into the popular renters’ solution for boring walls, and I’m super excited about it! Earlier this year I wallpapered a small nook in my kitchen, post to come, and… Continue reading Peel & Stick: My favorite sources for removable wallpaper
