Adding impact to your home for less… isn’t that always the struggle? We want our home to look like a million bucks, but we sure don’t have a million bucks in our budget to spend on it! I get it – I totally do, and as weird as it probably is coming from an interior designer: I completely respect your desire to make big changes as reasonable as possible. The world of Pinterest and DIY…
Happy Friday! Do you all love Fridays as much as I do? I’m going to guess yes. This Friday has been so lovely, and it has only just begun: I am currently enjoying a “hat day”, complete with writing this post from my fav Downtown Coffee Company. Woot! However, I am having complete “blog post topic” block. So, instead of focusing on one topic, I’m just going to share with you random thoughts on what…
Can we all agree… fresh flowers are the best! They bring so much life to any vignette or room. You know, I love silk flowers too. Adding greenery and color to a space is so important, and it’s hard to pass up a beautiful flower that never dies. Perhaps that’s why it’s so easy to appreciate the beauty of fresh flowers. I don’t get them all the time, and their beauty is fleeting. My favorite…
Oh – how I have been coveting copper lately. Craving it, perhaps. [source] [source] [source] Isn’t it wonderful? I’m so glad copper has made it’s way to the spotlight in the decorating scene. I love it mixed with white, navy, or deep greens. Here are some ways to add copper to your home. A copper collection to crave… //
I have “deal-itis”. Also known as CPUC – “Can’t Pass Up Clearance” [not to be confused with the California Public Utilities Commission – haha, yes, I looked it up]. This is a serious condition. It leads to purchasing things that I absolutely do. not. need. Can anyone relate? Thankfully my husband is a patient man. I think it helps that my shopping sprees are usually $15 shopping sprees, rather than $150 shopping sprees…
Some things are in the mix at the Rardon home! …all because of a little hole in a frozen pipe. Ugh. One evening (while at a dance recital with a friend) I got a text from Phil, “Just so you’re not surprised when you get home, we have a little water in the basement”. Oh boy. It ended up being a little more than a little. You could splash in our carpet. Yep,…
These box cornices have been a great solution for many of my clients. Which is awesome, because I enjoy making them – and there are so many different ways that you can cover and customize them! They are the perfect mix of soft and simple. They add a soft element to the room with the fabric, but the upholstered cornice keeps the look clean. It says, “Hey, I’m just enough, without being too…
My friends are amazing at giving gifts. Really. It’s like they understand me to the core -blessing me with things that I absolutely love, or something that I have been considering buying already. Seriously – I have one friend, in particular, who gets me gifts that make me think, “Holy popcorn, we are the same freakin’ person!” Well, this gorgeous lady came to visit me a little while ago, so I knew I wanted to…
