Restyling a triangular shelf with plants and books
Quarantine Spring cleaning...I’ve been restyling my shelves with a few new items from @shopjonesandco and it’s quite the mood boost! Happy to help you out with your shelves, message me some pics and we can discuss! .
Bright paper banners for a cheerful dining corner
Started decorating last night for Cinco de Marlowe...my girl turns 5 on Friday and it became clear to me a month ago that a party was unlikely. I went ahead with my plan and sourced decorations and I’m glad I did...the house felt so cheerful this morning and she was so happy. If you’re home with kids and you have any kind of festive accessories on hand think about putting them up! We need to be as happy and present in this moment as possible because the future is more uncertain now than ever 🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Small ceramics bring warmth to a living room
A little bit goes a long way...toward being cheerful, helping small businesses and enjoying your home (important now more than ever!) These are all recent acquisitions from @shopjonesandco and I can speak to the joy they spark for me. Not gonna pretend that those mugs don’t hold wine as well as they hold coffee but all the more reason to order some for yourself or better yet, for someone who’s been wondering how the hell are we gonna get out of this mess? .
A round mirror and planting in a bright entry
Well, on a positive note, one of my favorite brands @schoolhouse just posted my kitchen (designed by me, shot by @nataliepigliacampo ) on their feed! I incorporated several of their amazing fixtures into our remodel including this beautiful mini chandelier in the entryway💡
A desk shelf refreshed with vintage globes
Shelves = big opportunity in every room; I spent about 15 minutes reworking my nephew’s desk with objects from his closet (+ some vintage globes we sourced 2 years ago) and suddenly everything felt fresh and new🔬📚🗺🏆🦸🏻♂️🏈 (with no money spent!) you’ve probably got all of the “stuff” you just need my help 🧚🏻(so DM me)
Built-in alder shelves for books and collections
📚Styled shelves in a kid space; two of my very favorite things! I designed these shelves (solid alder slabs with a light oil finish) and I’m constantly reworking them based on what my son is into at the moment. Shelves are a great way to showcase collections and add personality (and of course, plants🌿) to a room. Toys in heavy rotation are accessible while vintage children’s books (mine), plants and more delicate objects and art are placed higher up...and just in case your kids are climbers like mine, those shelves are drilled into studs on 3 sides 💪🏻 📸by @nataliepigliacampo .
A green sunroom in the middle of winter
Ok February, I get it, it’s still winter, you don’t have to rub it in! At least it’s still green in here (and all the toys are hidden in those @ikeausa cabinets) p.s. chihuahuas love heat☀️🌵
Reviewing a colorful dining-room photograph
Dining room is looking pretty sweet on @nataliepigliacampo ‘s screen ... multicolored case study chairs have been a dream of mine for years and I love the end result🪑(accessories by @shopjonesandco )
A wooden drawing hand used for jewelry storage
Zero effort IKEA hack ... figure drawing hand makes great everyday jewelry storage 🖐🏻💍
A pilea in warm afternoon light
I try not to play favorites with my plants but...this beauty ( ) is really helping me survive winter
Woven planters and leather poufs in an entry
The right mix plants and containers is constantly evolving and my new @poteydotcom woven planter is fitting in quite nicely! .
Choosing plants in a sunlit greenhouse
At my happy place today...an oasis in the middle of high desert winter...choosing the first round of plants for a client’s kitchen, living and dining room. They add so much softness, color and IMO, happiness, to a space🍃🌿🌱
Velvet holiday cushions on a green sofa
Last week I felt a burning desire to give my couch a mini holiday update by adding a couple of velvet pillows and it’s feeling pretty festive in here, especially with Rocco in a dapper sweater.
Desert planting along a bright sunroom wall
The seasons are changing but it’s always gonna a be California Desert in this room.
Thick alder shelves for books, globes and toys
I designed these floating 2” thick solid alder shelves in the kids rooms and guest bath...tons of storage but also a great styling opportunity! The vintage books belonged to me as a kid, the hatchshowprint carnival art is a nod to the spot in ConeyIsland where @coreindustries proposed, vintage globes, and Roman’s favorite @melissaanddougtoys on the bottom shelf for easy access.
Orange and blue faces across a street-art wall
“Denver Street Art” or “How it feels when you realize on a Monday morning (as you’re about to send your portfolio to a client) that your entire website doesn’t exist anymore” 😳
Vintage landscapes on a bright hallway wall
First day that it really feels like fall...hoping that all this green inside will get me thru winter!
