Happy Thanksgiving?

Was trying to find a photo of a great dining room or table setting I liked in honor of the holiday…but this lovely living room stopped me in my tracks. So instead of a seeing a fabulous tablescape on Thanksgiving…you get this from me. Maybe it is a sign for me…cut back on food on Thanksgiving Day and enjoy the company of others in the communal living spaces…? Well I will most likely still eat AND definitely commune with family!

Love this room by fab L.A. architect William Hefner! So this is my way of saying Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you for reading. Thank you for your comments. Thank you for spending time with me this year and hopefully next! Hope you have a fantastic day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

P.S. Must wake up early and make a few pies! Wish me luck!

    Love the room too! My most recent pie was pear pie with streusel topping and caramel sauce baked in for the last 10 minutes of cooking. (I have a monthly Pie Salon with interesting artists and musicians — how fabulous is that!)

    Wonderful blog — I always click on the e-mail notification the second it comes through.

    Happy Thanksgiving!!!

A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. It tells you everything about the history of the space. The patina, the pattern, the way light moves across it. These are the rooms that prove good bones never go out of style.
What’s your favorite parquet pattern?

Designer Emma Donnersberg took her own Paris apartment in the 7th arrondissement and used it to rewrite the rules — classical bones, contemporary everything else. Her Wave Sofa and U&Me Table anchor the living room in organic curves. In the kitchen, a green ceramic-wrapped island does the heavy lifting for color against all that neutral stone. And the dining room? A Carrara travertine fireplace that turns stone into the whole point of the room.
Curved, curated, and completely hers. 🤍

A little peek at one of my favorite outdoor spaces, which I designed years ago. The patterned tile, navy seating, white stucco, and layers of greenery make this balcony feel like a little room all its own.
I love how much personality you can create in a small outdoor space without making it feel overcrowded.
Save this for your next outdoor space refresh. 🍃

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎

The right chandelier doesn’t just light a room, it becomes the room. Scale, material, placement. When it’s done right, everything else arranges itself around it.
