I knew when I moved into my office that I would eventually want to invest in a rug or two since I’m not entirely 100% happy with the rugs I’m currently using. I have a natural color faux cowhide rug in the sitting area and a blush pink real cowhide under my desk. I actually …
Decor Trends // How To Get the New Woven Cane Furniture Look
Source: The Style Saloniste Nothing reminds me of ’80s decor more than these woven cane chairs… well, and that orange-stained oak that they seemingly built everything in, and country blue and bears and… OK, there are a LOT of things that remind me of ’80s decor, but these chairs epitomize the decade for me. However, …
Dogwood Tavern Renovation Stage 1 // Opening Up The Space
I SO wish I could have shared the renovation of the old Royal Oak into Dogwood Tavern with you in real time, but alas, I was forbidden. I ONLY wish I had not listened and done it anyway because I think these would have been a lot more fun to see as they were taking …

Miller from HGTV Star season 8 where she earned her nickname, “The Design Daredevil.” She’s recently curated a sale at J&M, Jessie D. Miller/Behind the Design, where you can find many similar pieces to the ones she’s used in the photos from …
Behind the Design // Lilly Bunn Interiors Home Decor Inspiration
Lilly Bunn Interiors is another designer I found via Joss & Main and fell in love with her portfolio. Some of these spaces are just so dreamy I want to move right in. I go through phases with my own home… sometimes I’m full-speed ahead with decorating and redecorating and sometimes I go for months …
Home Decor & Design // Michael Herold Design via Joss & Main
It’s no secret that I love Joss & Main. If I’m not antiquing or thrifting, I’m shopping Joss & Main for home decor from rugs and decor accents to furniture… but mostly small accent ottomans, because it’s clear by how many I have in my house THAT I’M OBSESSED WITH OTTOMANS. Joss & Main has …
Bluma // A New Way to Carry Your FRESH BLOOMS & Flowers
Does it bother you as much as it bothers me when you see fashion blogger after fashion blogger carrying a bouquet of “fresh blooms” in her way-to-expensive-to-be-carrying-flowers-in-handbag? It enrages me, lol. However, I’m totally guilty of it too… I just couldn’t resist the white roses in my Shelby Dress photo shoot, but come on… who …
Stunning High Contrast Design Details // Catelli’s Restaurant
This incredibly gorgeous event space of Napa’s 80-year-old Catelli’s Restaurant was recently reimagined and designed by FORM Los Angeles who turned the unused outdoor areas into stunning functional spaces with a timeless yet modern feel, surrounded by beautifully sculptural olive trees.

Console Table Styling & Decor Inspiration
I love a great console table with a pair of dueling lamps at either end. It must be the symmetry of the look that is so pleasing to my visual eye. In fact, I was hoping to get the look behind our new sectional sofa on the window side, but low and behold, I don’t …
Monday Must Have // Swing Table by Duffy London
At just over $11,000 this amazing Swing Table by Christopher Duffy for British design brand Duffy London doesn’t necessarily qualify as a “must-have” but I’m absolutely obsessed with it anyway and LOVE the concept. They pitch it for the workspace, as a way to make board meetings “fun” {as if}, but I’d prefer it with …
Modern Declaration LoVE
I’m sure I found Modern Declaration via Pinterest… although it really could have been via any social media source, but Pinterest is known for the prettiest of images, so I’m just assuming. Daun Curry is the gorgeous and talented designer behind Modern Declaration and I have just fallen in love with her work. Since stumbling …

Seriously, When Can We Move In?
I Stumbled upon this amazing architecture/decor & home site 1 Kind Design about 20 minutes ago via dwellinggawker and began Pinning like a wild woman. I loved everything I laid my eyes on. I actually scrapped my original post idea when I clicked on Scandinavian Home Gets a Shabby Chic Makeover because I fell so …
Wish List // Iomoi Desk Accessories
As you know I’ve been slowly redoing my office yes I’m taking forever to share it, apologies and when I stumbled upon these fabulous desk-cessories the other day I just about squealed. No, I did. Because EVERYTHING in the iomoi shop is kind of customizably insanely amazing …and for obvious reasons listed above I am …
Peter Karpf Mod Molded Plywood "Oto" Chair
Last week while packing up the gallery the boss ever-so-graciously offered me this mod molded plywood chair that he didn’t have a space for any longer. I asked my coworkers & drollgirl if they were interested and they assured me they were not. So, being the great scavenger that I am, I was giddy with …
