Robbie's beach house is a top pick in my book, and I think you'll like it too. She was my boss when I was digging trenches in the world of advertising, …
If you missed yesterday's post on headboard inspiration and planning, know that I've leaned away from having a formal headboard in our master bedroom, instead pushing towards overhauling the whole …
We've officially lived with the floored queen bed for one full month. And still love it. Somehow, even though it's a bigger bed, moving it 3 feet to the left …
This orange vintage plastic chair has been sneaking into many of my office-rehab shots lately. My sweet, discolored gem. It was a garage sale find much earlier in the summer that I …
I've been plotting to make cement planters ever since I saw them detailed in the late ReadyMade magazine earlier this year. Graphic designer for Exhurb Magazine, and author of simplysofie.com, Sofie …
