Click Photo For Source When we moved into our home (not quite) two years ago we knew that storage was going to be an issue. Our house has a few closets, but no real space for seasonal decorations, camping gear and some out of season clothing like coats and boots. All of this [...] I have to say this first: changing our bedroom has been one the best decisions I’ve (we’ve) made. I know that is a bold and dramatic statement, but in the 24 hours since completion I’ve felt a sense of calm and peace in our new bedroom. It’s by far the best space I’ve ever created.

I like the idea of [...] I’ve been really productive this week in my studio. Not so much with the creation part, but with the organization part. After reading Alicia’s post about her studio makeover I looked down at all the scraps of paper in the floor, the piles of books and magazines and thought “this room needs major help” and [...] I happened to stop by west elm this morning to check out their new website and fall collection and have to say that the warm palette is lovely.
