Monochromatic

For those of you following along the last few weeks post, you might recall my recent post on buying grocery store tulips (If you missed it- check it out HERE).  A follow up of said tulips in situ. I love all of the whites and creams in this vignette – from the frames to the […]

Casual

Having friends over mid-week can be difficult.  Not a lot of time to prep dinner after work. Sometimes I just like to have people over for a quick drink and some casual snacks.  For this get together, I put out pecans, olives and radishes. I think that is nice to everything out when people arrive. […]

Spring cleaning

Sometimes simply changing a few things can transform a space. For this little refresher project, we recovered the sofa in a lovely grey linen and added in tiger pillows and a grassy green cashmere throw. It really updated the sofa with a whole new look and feel.  I like to think of it as a […]

Charleston

A few weeks ago I took a trip for a few days to Charleston, South Carolina with my friend Caitlin (check out her her blog if you don’t already know it: Sacramento Street). We stayed at a charming new hotel called the Zero George.  It was in the perfect location to do plenty of walking, […]

Oysters

  Last week, I mentioned a little get away with Campbell and Wallace up to Napa. The trip wasn’t complete without a drink at the bar and a dozen oysters at Bouchon. I personally love going to restaurants, but especially eating  casually at the bar.  I love the interaction with the staff – asking questions and hearing […]

Yellow

Out on a walk the other day, I came across this house with a bright yellow front door. I loved the pop of color – it just made me smile.  For me, colors play a huge part in determining moods.  Don’t you agree? What colors make you happy?  Would you paint your front door a bold […]

A few of my favorite things

It’s hard to walk around my apartment (let’s not forgot that it’s a small apartment- so it doesn’t take me very long!) and pick my favorite things. This corner of my living room might be my new favorite area – as it contains two of my favorite objects: my framed sketch from Albert Hadley and […]

Snapshot

Here’s a small snapshot of a project we’ve been working on.  We paired beautiful grasscloth on the wall with a custom headboard in a blue/green linen with an double antique nailhead detail and an oversized stacked crystal bedside table lamp.  We are loving the direction of this project and can’t wait to share more as […]

Lazy

  Sometimes don’t you wish that you could just spend a lazy day in bed?  As you can see, this isn’t particularly difficult for Campbell and Wallace.  Fortunately, a recent weekend away at The Carneros Inn provided them with the opportunity to do so in luxury.   The excitement of the road trip adventure just […]

Grocery store flowers

Here he goes again with the fresh flower thing, you’re thinking.  I just had to share that buying flowers doesn’t have to be expensive or require an extra trip to the florist, garden store or flower market.  I found these beautiful French tulips the other day at my local grocery store.  They were (no joke!)
