Home is the most important thing. It’s our safe place. It’s where we send time with the people we love the most. It’s our sanctuary. These home decor posts are what inspire me to make mine the very best it can be, and hopefully they will inspire you too!

Wood Backsplash Ideas
A while back I saw a photo of a kitchen and was instantly smitten. Grey-blue paint, gold hardware, and best of all, a wood backsplash. I had never in my life considered it – despite years of working in and around the interior design industry and being exposed to a lot of different options. Wood […]

Epoxy River Tables: Yay or Nay?
Epoxy river tables are incredibly hot right now. It seems like they came out of nowhere, and now all of a sudden I’m seeing them all over the place. Houzz, Etsy, Pinterest, you name it. I have to admit, up until recently I wasn’t a fan. I thought they looked a bit cheesy and were […]

We’re Coveting: The Scott McGillivray Vanity
I never really intended for this blog to be associated with work. It’s more of a fun side project that I work on when the mood strikes. However, when you work in brand development for home and lifestyle celebrities, sometimes work and home collide in a most pleasant way. One of the projects I’ve been […]

Christmas Chalkboard Ideas
I have a floor to ceiling chalkboard in my kitchen, and I love it. I’ve only had it for about a month and a half but I’ve been thoroughly entertained by it. It’s a great little creative outlet, and including a calendar has definitely helped my household become more organized. Now if only we could […]

Is Toile Outdated?
There was a time in my life when I hated toile. I mean really hated it. A tea towel, a footstool, a pillow – even the smallest accessory was way too much. My parents had a bathroom done all in toile and I could barely stand to go in it. But recently something has changed. […]

Decorating with Antiques: James Farmer Edition
I have a special fondness for antiques. I got my start working in an antiques and vintage store right out of school, and being exposed to the collectible curios of days past definitely set the stage for my future decor preferences. Antique items have a patina that can’t be recreated, and if you ask me, […]

We’re Coveting: Luxurious Throw Pillows
I’m a sucker for throw pillows. Always have been. When I want a change and can’t afford to do anything drastic, new throw pillows always do the trick. I moved into a new house a couple of months ago and I’m in the process of making some upgrades. This time around I’m trying an entirely […]

Learning to Love Black Hardware
I’ve never been a huge fan of black hardware in the kitchen. It’s not that I dislike it, but it would never be my first choice. Every home I’ve ever lived in has had either chrome or brushed nickel hardware. Both of those are fine, but I’ve always, ALWAYS dreamed of having a kitchen with […]

We’re Coveting: Star Light Fixtures
I’ve been a fan of star light fixtures since the first time I saw one about 15 years ago. I was working in a vintage store and the ones we got in were the real deal. Fragile and old but absolutely adorable. I wasn’t in the market for one at the time, but now, all […]

We’re Coveting: The Perfect Entryway
In my current home I do not have an entryway. Or at least, what I do have is so small and cramped that it feels like I don’t have an entryway. In fact, the tiny entryway that I do have is so tiny and difficult to maneuver through that it would actually be easier to […]
