Friday Family-Friendly Find: The New Traditionalists Console No. 90
A couple of years ago, I visited my sister in NYC (solo!!), and spent a Friday at the New York Design Center while waiting for her to wrap up work for the weekend. It was cool to visit showrooms and see lines we don’t have here in Boston, some of which also don’t show at…

Happy Friday! These days it’s been pretty tough to fit in the blog posts, and I’ve been writing them at funny times as a result. But I’m determined to keep up the twice-weekly frequency as much as possible. I hope you enjoy reading as much as I do writing (it may be hard to work…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Schumacher High Performance Silk Velvet
If there are two words in the world of decorating more diametrically opposed than “performance” and “silk,” I challenge you to come up with them. In fact, silk is so fraught with issues – lack of abrasion resistance, brittleness/deterioration when exposed to sunlight, vulnerability to ‘water stains,’ and extremely difficult to clean, just to name…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Torlys EverWood LVT Flooring
For the second consecutive week, I am featuring a flooring product as my #FFFFind. Coincidence? Not a chance. I’m locking in final flooring decisions on our home renovation right now, so what’s underfoot is currently on the brain. Today I thought I’d share a find I’ve used in a recent project, and will be using…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Rohl Hex Hands-Free Bathroom Faucet
I’m sure I’m not the only one among us in the trenches with small children who are, well, not the most reliable hand washers. Every time I am in there with them showing them how to do a thorough job, literally all I can think about is how dirty my hands will be again as…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Marvin Window & Door Shades
This past Tuesday, I attended a networking event with New England Home magazine, hosted by Marvin at their fabulous window and door showroom at the newish 7 Tide building near the Boston Design Center. Yes, it actually is fabulous – very design-oriented and high-tech, as well. Highly recommended for designers, architects, builders, and anyone building,…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: CR Laine Liv Daybed
This week’s find isn’t new to me, as it is a piece of furniture I used in a client project a couple of years ago. I’m working with the same client again on a new project (their very cool pool house), and she keeps telling me how beloved it is, especially by her teenage boys,…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Land of Nod Squared Up Step Stool
If you have (or had) small children, odds are you’ve got one or several plastic step stools scattered throughout your house. They perform a very important task – helping kids do things independently, like go to the bathroom, wash their hands, reach items in their closet or dresser, help in the kitchen, etc. Unfortunately, however…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Joe Ruggiero Classico II Ottoman
I can’t believe it’s Friday already…again! My how time does indeed march on. And when it’s Friday around here, that can only mean one thing. Wine drinking commences at 4PM. Ha – kidding! Sort of. Fridays are for Family-Friendly Finds, silly! This week’s #FFFFind is not the first ottoman I’ve featured, but it is delightfully…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Giardini di Sole Roberta Pitcher & St. Tropez Dinner Set
Finding attractive tableware that is also shatterproof and easily handled by a child is no easy feat. I don’t know about you, but my cupboards are full of Paw Patrol and Thomas plates, mismatched ‘Take and Toss’ cups and tops, and a slew of other items I cannot wait to get rid of when we…
