Art & Architecture
Artistic Genius and Serendipity
This is the second installment in my Junior League of Boston 2017 Designer Show House ‘week of gratitude,’ where I’m blogging about the partners, sponsors, and donors who were so generous with their talents and/or products. And today is all about the art! Little known fact: I was an art history major in college. Which…

The Junior League of Boston Show House is back again this year, after a successful event last spring, for which I was honored to transform a blank, crumbling space into a warm and vibrant mother-in-law bedroom. This year’s show house will be held this fall, and I’m so pleased to announce I will be participating…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Framebridge Custom Print & Frame
How is it Friday again? I don’t know about you, but I am feeling waaaay behind on all things holiday. There is so much to do in the next week, I’m frankly not sure how it is all going to get done. Given my current stressed-out state of mind, I thought I’d share a last-minute…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Minted Little Artist Shelf
The holiday crush is in full swing! This has been a week full of meetings and events and very little time behind my computer (during ‘normal’ business hours, anyway). It’s always nice to take a moment to step back from it all and focus on a single, great home decor product to share with you…
Read MoreThe Allure of Antique Portraits
Maybe it’s the art history major in me, but every time I see a photograph of a room with a prominent antique portrait, I get a little weak in the knees. They lend warmth to a crisp contemporary space, balance whimsy with a dash of gravitas, and lend a sense of depth and history…and dare…

I have a Google alert set up for “family-friendly interiors” so I can keep up with what other designers and decorators are doing that they consider to be Interiors For Families. I could get fancier and more comprehensive with my keywords, but I haven’t – and interestingly, it’s a pretty quiet feed. There was a…
Read MoreOld House Love
With all apologies to the eponymous Young House Love bloggers, I just have to write a bit about some Old House Love – for the one my husband and I now own. We haven’t moved in yet, but the prior owners moved out this week. I have to say, now that the house is completely…
Read MoreA Change Of Plans
You may have noticed I’ve been away from the blog for awhile. I’ve been on writing hiatus while we’ve been focusing on some personal business. For months – heck, for nearly a year I’ve been blogging about “our new house,” and the process of designing and decorating it while construction has been ongoing. I’ve spent…
