ALright alright. So here is what the Osbornes needed: a living room where they could watch tv, but felt grown up and sophisticated. When i first saw the house they had just had a dinner party and there were folding tables in the living room, they had a eat-in kitchen area for the family, but… Read More …
ooh. I’m about to share so many secrets: sources, behind the scenes and exactly what my process is. Come back on monday for a full tell-all. I’m composing as i speak. er, write.
This one is a wild departure from the last few. Here’s a sneak into the Osbornes episode. Before room: i know. its such a pretty house. Sure it needed help, but the architecture, the light and those huge windows were awesome. These were my inspiration shots for her (she picked them out, but… Read More …
Joy did a behind the scenes post over here where she credited all the artwork – which i was going to do OF COURSE, but man she made it easy for me. Thanks, Joy. So here goes: The prints above the couch are {from left to right}: lady print by Peggy Wolf, floral hedgehog byChipmunk Cheeks, vintage… Read More …

I kinda want this living room. I’m serious. Its just so big and airy and open and now totally fun and happy. It looks like them without looking like it was designed. Let’s talk wallpaper. When i first met with Joy i knew about her wallpaper and yes, loved the gold floral (i think they… Read More …
Yes. The world has now gotten to see the hilariousness that is Bob and the adorableness that is Joy. It was such a fun episode and style-wise i think that its one of my favorites. (second look, not first) photo by Laure Joliet Here’s how it all went down. I met them a month or… Read More …
Here’s the mood board for Joy’s episode. Does it put you in the mood? I saw a rough cut of the episode a month ago, but i don’t remember if they kept me saying that the wallpaper is Joy’s wallpaper. Now i know that you all know it is, but spread the word. It looks… Read More …
I know. You are dying to know. America is shouting out…WHO. IS. SHE. WEARING? Who cares? you ask? Well i have to admit that i like to know who or what people are wearing and into. Be it just for inspiration to find the vintage stuff that is more affordable. Orlando and I… Read More …
Yup. So we have been picked up for a Holiday Special for next year. It’s a one hour, 3 layers (including holiday decoration) bonanza. We’ll shoot for 10 days (twice the norm) and i will pimp your pad per usual. But we need more families for casting to make sure we find the right one…. Read More …
Let’s start at the beginning. I met the couple, figured out their styles and started shopping. I found the sofa first. I dug it out behind a ton of stuff, here’s proof: It looked like this: Fun, but kinda gross, itchy, dirty. etc. and too retro. In general when i say retro its not a… Read More …
I loved this couple and i loved this loft, but it was massive and totally empty. The week started out great, they are super easy to talk to and were really excited on camera (note to future clients, bring on the excitement). Mica does video car review videos for blue-book so he’s used to being… Read More …
Alright so i’ve gotten a bunch of emails about the artwork that Sage gave me on the show. I was seriously seriously excited about it. I love it so much. Look: I know. So special. i LOVE it. Thank you so much, Sage. And here’s a teaser mood board for tomorrow night: I wish… Read More …
Most contrasting styles can work together if you balance it well and stick with the right color palette, in fact I cant think of two that don’t work together (wait, if they are both ornate and old i.e. spanish meets 1920’s, it can be hard because there are no straight lines or anything simple and… Read More …
Lets talk sofa for a little bit, shall we? I got it at Room Service in LA. It’s pretty awesome there because they can do anything in a few weeks. A lot of their furniture is extremely high style and very on trend, which i love, but i want to be a little more timeless… Read More …
