June 16, 2023

In today's fast-paced and stressful world, finding solace and tranquility within the comfort of our own homes has become increasingly important. The living room, as the heart of the home (I'm not a believer that the kitchen is the heart but the stomach of the home!), plays a significant role in creating a calming and peaceful environment.

Traveler’s Guide to Santa Barbara: Spanish Revival, Home Inspiration, & Where To Visit

May 18, 2023

For the most part, our family took one trip a year together and we were lucky enough to do it in Santa Barbara, California (well, SB, Carpinteria and Montecito). My Aunt and Uncle had moved there in the late 80’s having their third child in this coastal town only to decide to invest in a beach house down the road a couple of years after arriving. This magical oasis became my best childhood memories. Sitting right[...]

History of Homes: What’s Changed in 100 Years

February 27, 2023

Ever feel like keeping up with the Joneses is more like keeping up with the Kardashians? Our decor doesn't feel right, our homes don't feel big enough, it just doesn't seem to be enough. After a recent conversation with my family about why our 2500 sq/ft home wasn't big enough for our extended family to come and hang out in. It got me wondering...Is our home not big enough? When we have kids that fills these ext[...]

Display More Art with This Layered Frame Hack

January 9, 2023

And the space that you live in and the objects that occupy it. All avenues of space are precious because they’re limited and therefore what fills them (or doesn’t) needs to be intentional. The same is true for art on our walls and yet I still believe you can n[...]

2023 Design Trends: The Year of the Divine Feminine

December 30, 2022

I thought it was just me craving more simplicity, more slow, more quality and less quantity. When I started my journey of slow living, I knew that I was on a level of burnout I hadn’t been before and thought, this will help me heal. Maybe it will even help my find happiness again. It did. But it did so much more for me. I realized that it wasn’t just slow living I was looking for, it was the divine feminineâ€[...]

Creating a Cozy Corner in your Home

November 14, 2022

I’ve alway had an eye for design. Even at 3 when I wore every piece of jewelry I owned, I had a vision for things. But design isn’t everything when it comes to creating a slow home. Yes, having a beautiful place that welcomes you in, is nice, but I’m more concerned about having a place that supports the way you live and then is designed well. (What can I say, I like pretty things). Function over fashion has[...]
