Nothing is perfect in this house. The house has been lived in, tweaked and added on to for 130 years. But that’s the charm of it for me. Little narrow passages, hidden staircases, mysterious doors and cubbies. Victorian woodworking, glass doorknobs and iron pulls. Simple little moments around every corner where all the layers both […]

It’s here, it’s here, it’s here!!! For so many reasons today is like Christmas. I cannot wait to pour a cup of coffee and spend my morning combing through renovated rooms created by the featured & guest participant designers over the past six weeks of the One Room Challenge. And for us here in the […]

What is harder than the One Room Challenge timeline itself? Waiting to share!!! Last year’s ORC taught me the value of professional photography. In order to get the photos edited in time we had to bust out a one week-early completion date. I am thrilled to report that this baby is DONE! New quartzite counters installed. […]

Man, do you ever get exhausted from the hustle? Those last minute hold out decisions are killing me. The smallest minute details would make anyone listening in on my rants think I am positively an insane person. Shades of color suddenly feel monumental. Oh, I found the magical perfect vintage rug, hooray, does it make […]
