The last few weeks I’ve been working on taking down the wallpaper in our upstairs’ hall. I’m so anxious to get our family photos and some other cool things up on our walls!!! Our downstairs’ hall looks just the same, so that will get tackled as soon as I finish upstairs. Right now we have […]
Tuesday Design Tip-Ready-Made Drapery Treatments
It’s been a while since we did a “Tuesday Design Tip” post! I’ve been on the hunt recently for some ready-made drapery panel options for a client. I have been working on a couple of projects where clients choose to go the ready-made route over the custom window treatment route. At some point, we’ll get […]
Built Ins
I’ve always loved built-ins. There are so functional, beautiful and add so much architectural detail and character to a space. Built-ins have been on the brain, lately. I’ve been working on a built-in design right now for a client, and in re-thinking our own home, {you can catch up on what I wrote about here} […]

A while back (before we moved) I wanted to give our bedroom a bit of a custom feel to our all white, ready made bedding. I purchased a pillow at Pottery Barn that had the colors of other accents in our bedroom. I wanted to monogram it, and although I could do it through Pottery […]

‘O Christmas Tree!
Jill’s Tree One of my favorite things about Christmas is definitely the tree. There is just something extremely comforting about a beautifully decorated pine in the living room. Maybe it’s the ambiance from the soft white lights. Or maybe it’s that every ornament is a reminder of a camping trip, a family vacation, our wedding […]
