Decorating with Velvet for a touch of luxe
I'm definitely not into frilly and fussy when it comes to my home decor, but sometimes a girl just needs a little luxury in her life. Especially as the temperatures drop and we spend more times indoors, it's nice to have your home feeling a little more indulgent and comfortable.Enter velvet, beautiful color, amazing texture, and when done right...
Small kitchen inspiration and ideas
Small kitchen? Me too. Why is that a good thing? Because everything is closer at hand! I actually prefer a smaller kitchen to a large one because everything in my kitchen is at most 3 to 4 steps away. We actually only have 3 drawers. In a small kitchen the biggest challenge is adequate storage space and work surfaces.I...

Modern Rustic Inspiration

One doesn't easily find a straight line in nature, so in my eyes blending straight, clean lines with natural organic elements is an art form. Here are some interiors that I...
St. Bart’s house tour: cool, crisp Caribbean style.
This house tour will have you packing your bags. It is the home of Keld Mikkelson of Day Birger et Mikkelson and his wife Marianne Brandi. In full disclosure I'd never heard of them, but if their clothing and accessories line are like they're home, I'm sure I'd be a fan. The home is adorned in sleek blacks and...
Beautiful rooms that are eclectic, artisan, and bohemian
I know we see this look around a lot now, but I can't help it - I love it. White kitchen, oriental rug, and clean hardware. Jealous.
I think this would make a great guest room. The amazing plank ceiling, antique bed, and pretty textiles hanging from the ceiling.
How fantastic are the bones of this room? From the moldings to...
We’re loving Greek Revival – see why
Of all the "fancy" styles, Greek Revival is probably my favorite. Granted, it's more of an architectural style than an interior decorating style. I like that while it's grand, it can also feel very intimate through the use of sumptuous fabrics, furniture with gorgeous lines, and pattern.Greek revival is also heavy on moulding, hardwood floors, and well-crafted architectural details,...
