The Photo Gallery
I know some of you have already noticed, but I’ve added a photo gallery to the blog. There are sets of photos for each room, showing them from start to finish (or their current state if not exactly finished).
You could also browse through photos of the apartment Brandon and I lived in before we […]
Four New Dining Room Ideas
These are my latest ideas…
The constants throughout all four designs are the ivory curtains (from Crate & Barrel, now discontinued), the lighting fixture (from west elm), the dining table and chairs (vintage, from Jubilee Furniture), and the wood trim and floors in our home. Also, I may edge the curtains with a coordinating solid […]
Elsewhere: A Sunny Patio
First, Holly created a pretty little living room. Then Ez created a fresh, inviting home office to coexist in the same (virtual) house. Which brought us to… the Blogger House Party.
Several bloggers (myself included, yay!) are each creating another room for our virtual client’s home. We have Holly’s short bio to go […]
The Blog Has Been Fancified
Not being one content to leave well enough alone, and less than a month after moving to WordPress, I’ve redesigned the site.
Well, it’s not a really a redesign… what I did was more for functionality. Of course, I had to make things a little prettier while I was at it. ;)
Making it Lovely […]
Currently Coveting: ZigZags
ZigZag Pillow, Design Public
ZigZag Brown & White Rug, Madeline Weinrib
Mimas Wallpaper, Romo
I’ve ordered a sample of that wallpaper, which is my new favorite. Not too feminine, not too masculine, dark but not overwhelming, no flocking or foil, graphic but timeless… it may just be perfect.
I have, of course, created a mockup.
It looks even better […]
Francesca’s Painting
I couldn’t show this until now because it was a gift…
I had created a similar painting a few years ago for little Ross on his first Christmas, so now it was baby Francesca’s turn.
It was a simple process. I created the layout for the 16′ x 20′ canvas in Illustrator with a vector frame […]
Christmas Wrapping
I love wrapping gifts. Naturally you want to choose a gift that you think will delight the recipient, so why shouldn’t the presentation have the same effect?
Each year I choose a theme for my Christmas wrapping. Actually, I hesitate to use the word “theme” here, because I always think of theme rooms (Jungle […]
The Living Room: A 3D Rendering
Wow. Um. This may be the dorkiest thing I’ve done yet.
I’ve created a 3D rendering of my living room (to scale), which I populated with furniture, animated, set to music, and uploaded to YouTube.
Enjoy:
