4 Dramatic Kitchen Updates We Are Loving For Fall

We’ve had an ever-so-slight decrease in temperature here in Austin, and all of a sudden my autumn nesting instincts are taking over in a big way. I went antiquing this weekend and felt strong urges to buy Tartan wool throws and glass goblets worthy of a Thanksgiving feast. I know we have a long way […]

Meet Me in Paris

In case you’re not up to speed, our executive producer Chanel is tying the knot with her longtime beau Eric in just two short weeks. Oh, and did I mention? We’re all going to France for the wedding. (!!!)  Obviously, we’re giddy with anticipation right now in the office — flights purchased, outfits planned, and we […]

10 Headboards That’ll Keep You In Bed All Day

The most relaxing spot in my home is curled up in my bed reading a good book, binge watching Netflix, or snuggling with my puppy (preferably all at once.) I love the idea of coming home to a comfy bed at the end of a long day and just unwinding. Since my bed is the […]

9 Ways to Make Your Home Feel Straight Out of a Nancy Meyers Movie

When it comes to movie sets we want to live in, no one does it quite like Nancy. It’s like her films connect directly to some mysterious part of the female brain — whether it’s a quaint English cottage, the perfect NYC brownstone, or the coziest ranch style home, she just gets it. We’ve been obsessed with her interiors […]

Claire & Aqua Girl

Claire Craig is one of our ultimate girl-about-Austin crushes. Not only is she the owner of one of our favorite local boutiques, but she’s got a sense of humor and a cool girl je ne sais quoi that just makes you wanna hang out with her. And as if that wasn’t enough, she’s also mom to one of the […]

5 Quick Ways to Dress Up Your Dining Room

In the last few minutes before guests arrive, when I’m running around juggling several dishes in various stages of completion, I always find myself with just a couple of minutes to clear off my dinner table and make it look guest-worthy. Step one is always a quick sweep to declutter the table/workspace/catch all, leaving me […]

Naturally Dyed Shibori Pillowcases

When I first discovered Kristine Vejar’s book The Modern Natural Dyer, I fell in love with the bright colors, amazing textures, and the fact that natural dyeing was one of the few art projects I had yet to try. But after reading a few of her tutorials, I realized natural dyeing involves a lot of […]

The Floral Photography We’re Obsessed With

You guys have probably seen my good friend Ashley Woodson Bailey’s stunning floral photography floating around the web, and I’ve been obsessed with her prints and wallpaper ever since she launched her company a couple years ago. I already own a couple smaller pieces, but I finally got my hands on one of her large format prints […]

8 Ways to Make Your Bed Non-Basic

Editor’s note: Ever since Rebecca Atwood‘s “Living With Pattern” landed on our doorstep, it feels like my design sensibilities have done a complete 180. I’ve had varying versions of mostly white bedding for years and have always loved it, but flipping through the vibrant, pattern-filled pages of this book has me craving color and texture in a […]

How To Finish Decorating Your Home

When I moved to Austin a few years ago, I had nothing but two overweight suitcases in tow. I spent months making trips to and from stores trying to equip my first home, and still it felt so empty. In some ways it was a wonderful having a blank slate without being restricted by hand-me-down furniture […]

Organic Romance

It feels like every couple days I’m asked what my “wedding colors” are, and each time, I offer the same underwhelming answer: “I… don’t really have any?” Sure, there’ll be plenty of white and ivory, and lots of greens too, plus some blush, some blues, and oh yeah, there’s that one lilac element too… Since our wedding design doesn’t […]
