KITCHEN RENO PART III
In case you missed the first two parts: KITCHEN RENO PART I | PART II The main work of the remodel was all completed in the month of February. It took less than four weeks, but the house was covered in sawdust, the walls were open, floors, cabinets and counters were ripped out — and we were...
KITCHEN RENO PART II
Part two of the kitchen renovation series: inspiration photos! These are some of the most fun things to look at during any renovation, in my opinion – I love to see what direction the design was headed based on photos of other spaces. Here are some of the probably many photos that inspired our budget renovation with...
LAVATORY ENVY
Brass, Carrara marble, subway tiles (the old-looking ones), warm woods, industrial lighting… Jeff and Jason’s home-away-from-Brooklyn was featured on DesignSponge yesterday, and I must say – these dudes did their bathroom right. I am quite envious. Reminds me of one of my favorite places, not just for the libations but for their authentically industrial design: Schiller’s Liquor Bar....
MODERN FARMHOUSE
Have you seen this Austin home tour on Apartment Therapy? It’s a good one, featuring the home of Roger and Chris Stout-Hazard of Design Hazards which features a few of my favorite things including Americana, industrial, and farmhouse… we have the same buffalo-plaid style curtains in our living room (ours are from Pottery Barn kids, they’re blackout…...
YOU CAN RESTORE MY HARDWARE ANY DAY.
Umm-hmm. Double entendres, anyone? The super gigantic fall Restoration Hardware catalog/magazine-like-publication is packed with the most new products I’ve seen from them, ever. Talking new sofas, chairs, lighting, a larger range of paint colors. Damn. I dog-eared so many pages, our RH card definitely won’t be able to fulfill many of my wishes, but dang...
HAND RIVETED & WOVEN FIREHOSE BENCH
Isn’t this a cool idea? Looks like the perfect spot to sit and read a book outside… plus it can get wet. I just don’t like looking at those floor brackets so keeping it in the grass seems to solve the issue.PURCHASE VIA Hand Riveted and Woven Firehose Bench made from by GoodTimeJunkin.
F-YES ROMAN + WILLIAMS.
IF AT ANY POINT IN TIME STEVEN AND I BUY THE HOME OF OUR DREAMS, I’D LIKE TO HOPE WE’D BE ABLE TO HIRE ROMAN + WILLIAMS TO OVERSEE THE DESIGN AND PLANNING. Our home is sort-of a LO-FI tribute to Stephen Alesch and Robin Standefer, the formidable duo behind R+A – they provide the inspiration and solidify...
HICKOREE’S HARD GOODS.
…that’s what she said. Yeah, that one didn’t work. Seems like I’m always battling whether or not it’s appropriate to pull that off at given opportunities. That’s irrelevant. Hopping around from one blog to another today I found the shop HICKOREE’S HARD GOODS–they’ve got the best selection of well-priced quality American goods varying from bags,...
MEETING JONATHAN ADLER.
Last night Joy and I had the pleasure of going to the dual-book realease party at Kuhl-Linscomb for Jonathan Adler’s two new books: Jonathan Adler on Happy Chic Color and Jonathan Adler on Happy Chich Accessorizing. Now let me explain how this post could have almost been titled PUKING ON JONATHAN ADLER. We had such...
J.D. FISK
J.D. FISK is a new mens’ store in NYC that just made my day – I’ve been looking for a headboard and wall-mounted nightstand for our guest bedroom to no avail until now – see 3rd photo. This DIY is happening soon. EASY. Classic Menswear with a Dash of Bourbon at J.D. Fisk : Now Open : Racked NY.
DASHING.
I have to confess that I love the freaking Kardashian girls. So much so, in fact, that when I woke up Sunday morning to an infomercial on their new skincare line PerfectSkin, it only took about 10 minutes before I decided to buy the damn stuff. I was easily swayed by Kim going on about...
