I know it’s been forever since I’ve posted, (thank you Gina for taking the blogging reins) but I’m back at the keyboard and I’ve got some great new things to share… First things first, I have FINALLY finished my “Laundry Room Make Over”. My laundry “room” is actually in my garage. A few months ago, […]
A Farmhouse Kitchen
The weekend has come and gone and nothing has been done to my “Command Center.” I hope to get to some paint touch up this afternoon. So instead of showing you what I have accomplished over the weekend, {meaning nothing to share!} I thought I’d share with you some “After” pictures of the kitchen I […]
A Sneak Peek…
A few of my current projects are getting somewhat close to completion, and I’ve been able to visit a couple in the last week to see how they are progressing. I LOVE seeing the design vision become reality! Most projects take some time to evolve and to plan for, and a lot of times clients […]
Laundry Make Over
My personal project this week is one that I have been dragging my feet on starting, mainly because before began I HAD TO clean out the garage, uuuggh. My laundry machines are in the garage, which is right off of our living room so I don’t feel like I’m too far away, but it is […]
Love Your Rental Part 3 – Window Coverings
I once had the importance of dressing your windows and walls explained like this…The majority of what you see at eye level in a room is walls and windows. If you neglect those two major elements you are never going to have a complete space. This statement is true whether you own or rent your […]

But when she recently merged households and moved to a new home, she wanted to make sure she had the best furniture layout for […]

Tuesday’s Tips ~ Renter’s Guide to Home Decor
My husband and I live in one of our favorite areas in San Diego, North Park. We love the energy that comes from being surrounded by small boutiques, a plethora of delicious restaurants, and a comforting feeling that comes from the charm from the neighborhood homes. We love this area and plan to call it […]
Tuesday’s Tips ~ Color Change
I can’t tell you how many times Gina and I have worked with clients who have started off the project by telling us that they want to change the color of their space. Only to find out, after many hours and many design possibilities, that they have been led to believe that they want to […]
A Look Back
I’m sitting in my new family room with semi-chaos surrounding me and I’m thinking about our first little house. My hubby and I have been looking through pictures of our first home and we have totally forgotten how much we had improved it! I thought I’d share a few “Before” and “After” pictures. The picture […]
