Fresh Start?

January is here and everyone is talking about January being about having a fresh start. I can't seem to get up and go, and embarrassingly enough I still have half of my holiday decorations up. Last weekend was a wash between jet lag and the lack of light in England, it was impossible to get out of bed.

So in an attempt to get my energy back, I am sitting on the sofa attempting to start up my blog again after a mostly dormant 2013. I am looking to make this more of a personal journey in the design world and take some time to jot down some of my favorite things about London.

Lastly, I should explain that if I had a real live Christmas tree there would have been motivation to get rid of it weeks ago, however this paper white LED tree still feels fitting especially given the polar vortex hitting the US and headed over to England.

Better Homes and Gardens

This weekend is your last chance to pick up the summer issue of Better Homes and Gardens Kitchen and Bath.

I was lucky to get the chance to work with the editors on a bathroom renovation project for their Summer issue. I designed a bathroom and then sourced a low-end version and a high-end version. Check it out below, download it to your ipad, or pick up the magazine at your local store this weekend before they bring out their fall issue.

Pet Adoration Decoration

It is no secret that I am a huge pet lover, and there are so many great ways to incorporate your love of Fido into your home decor in a stylish and sophisticated manner. Here are a few ways that I recently worked with artwork to incorporate pets.

Color Story Monday: Margarita

I spent a cold and rainy weekend in London dreaming of margaritas and warm beaches, and although margaritas come in all colors there is one classic greenish-yellow color that makes up a traditional margarita. Add some summer fun with margarita as a color in your home.

1. Margarita by Benjamin Moore
2. Linen napkins from C Wonder
3. Graphic rug in cream and lime from CB2
4. A bar cart for all of your margarita essentials from CB2
5. A two tone bar stool in green and white from ABC Home
