Things have been changing over at my little abode: my dear roommate, Chanel, recently moved out, leaving my second bedroom empty and full of possibility. I’ve decided to transform the space into a much-needed home office, and I’ve got my work cutout for me! First thing’s first: a desk that’s simple, inexpensive, and has a… read more

10 best :: Ankle Booties
As I type this, I’m donning my all-time favorite pair of winter boots — classic black leather riding boots that hit just below the knee. I think they’ve earned their title, seeing as this is my sixth winter with them (impressive, right?), but there’s always room for a new pair or two come November. Since there’s been… read more
Snapshots from :: Los Cabos, Mexico
When friends ask what I did on last week’s trip to Los Cabos, it takes a bit of creativity to come up with an answer because, the real truth is, I did almost nothing! Our full range of activity consisted of little more than walks on the beach, devouring as much freshly-caught tuna as possible,… read more
Come & Craft with Us!
We’re so excited to be resuming our holiday craft night with Anthropologie this season! Last year’s Austin event was such a blast (remember those evergreen monograms?) and this year, the team and I have cooked up a creative way to make your gift wrapping loads more fun and eco-friendly, too. These little boxes are so chic,… read more

From hostess presents to party favors, my list seems to get longer each year. These do-it-yourself clay bowls are good for nearly… read more
Tastemakers :: Easy Tiger
A city’s food scene is only as good as its best bakery. We went too long in Austin without a truly great bakery, so when I learned that my talented friend David Norman was coming on as head baker for the new Easy Tiger a couple years ago, I was beside myself. David has punched dough… read more
10 Best :: Pumpkin Bites
At approximately 9 a.m. every morning, rain or shine, you can find me in the Starbucks line with a Gold Card in hand. While it’s not often that I stray from my routine iced vanilla latte, earlier this week I found myself craving a rich, frothy, cinnamon-y cup of nostalgia. Alas, the infamous pumpkin spice latte was calling… read more
Transformed :: Embossed Photo Business Cards
Claire here, and I’ve got some exciting (and slightly scary) news to share: I’ve finally decided to take the plunge and launch my own part-time interior design business, Claire Zinnecker Design! I feel incredibly fortunate to be surrounded by so many creative, talented and supportive people who have helped me reach this point and shown me the endless… read more
Transformed :: Dressed up Dresser
Refinishing a dresser can be super overwhelming. I’m often asked the questions: What qualities should I look for when furniture hunting? How do I ensure that I prime properly? What paints should I use? Claire here, and today’s project has been a long time coming. Over the last couple months, Chanel has had some major dresser drama… read more
Transformed :: Lazy Day Hammock
Claire here, and even though this time of year is all about winding down and soaking up the sun, it’s hard to believe how fast the summer’s whirling by. So for this month’s installment of Transformed, I set out to create something that would force me to catch my breath and relax: a do-it-yourself hammock! Earlier this week,… read more
