Magazine veteran reinventing herself through her handmade jewelry line, Libby and Smee
If you feel like you’ve already seen our master bedroom, you’re right. But you see, I realized when I was writing about all the Urban Outfitters stuff in our house that even though I wrote a lot of posts about our master bedroom (8 in total!), I never gave a proper piece-by-piece room tour with… Continue reading House Tour: Master Bedroom
Last week, when I told you about the room that inspired our master bedroom palette, I touched upon the decadent, sumptuous, to-die-for bedding from Olatz Schnabel that graced her bed in our inspiration picture. I would have loved a full set of her bedding but I don’t have a spare $4000 sitting around so it’s… Continue reading The Hunt for Master Bedroom Bedding
I suppose putting DIY in the title of this post is a little misleading. It should be more like “figure-out-how-to-do-it-and-then-hire-someone-else-to-do-it-because-you-can’t-sew”. That’s a little more honest. But if you can sew then you can absolutely do this yourself. Anyway… I have a love/hate relationship with curtains. I mean, I get it – I know that they… Continue reading DIY: Lengthening our Master Bedroom Curtains
If you’re like me, you’re used to devouring image after image of beautiful interiors whether it’s through magazines, blogs or everyone’s beloved Pinterest. But every once in awhile, you hit upon an image that stops you dead in your tracks and just stays with you. For me, that feeling hit when I saw this image… Continue reading Master bedroom Inspiration: Olatz Schnabel
There are quite a few things that I like about my redecorated master bedroom but like most things in this house, it’s still a work in progress. Let’s look at how far we’ve come before we see how much farther we need to go. Not bad but not quite there yet. You see, I’ve conveniently… Continue reading What’s Wrong with My Bedroom
I’m here with a quick post to tell you about an amazing dessert I made yesterday. I didn’t photograph all the steps but I heard so many “I need the recipe!” comments at the BBQ that I brought them to, I figured I’d write a quick post to tell you where to go to find it.… Continue reading Recipe: S’mores Bars
If you follow me on Instagram then you know that I’ve finally broken ground on my half bath renovation by yanking a couple loose tiles off the wall. By the way, I also ripped down the wallpaper. Yup. I’m crazy like that. Unfortunately, that’s where the reno stopped. You see that thick cement that was behind the… Continue reading Half Bath “Before” Shots and Design Plans
Last summer when we were visiting my parents in Westborough, Massachusetts–the town I grew up in (remember I told you about it here and here?)–I drove past this stunning house on Church Street and it stopped me in my tracks. I just couldn’t believe that I had never noticed it before. Well, that’s because it… Continue reading A Remarkable Renovation: 43 Church Street in Westborough
Remember when I told you my parents were selling their house in Massachusetts and building a new one in Connecticut? And remember I promised to tell you more about the CT house? You know…it was when I shared this ridiculous Google Map shot of the location of the new house? OK. Good. Now that we’re… Continue reading A New House for Mimi and Papa
Well, this was supposed to be the post where I told you to buy my parents awesome house, but alas it’s been on the market for two days and they already got a full price offer so I guess it’s too late for you, suckers! But I’m going to show it to you anyway because… Continue reading Buy My (Mom and Dad’s) House!
