Sophie and Lili is a small company that makes adorable and fun fabric dolls for, I would argue, “girls of all ages.” I don’t know where I came upon their work but…it was probably Instagram…I’m hooked. I have a particular affinity for their non-doll offerings – super summery prints. As we start to pack and […]

Sunday marked our one month anniversary in our new apartment! While exciting as that is, and while the progress we’ve made has been awesome, there are still some serious things missing. Don’t even get me started on our dining room chair / backorder debacle – we’ll be seeing those in May now thanks to Restoration […]

Much like my love for farm sinks and flatware I’ve recently discovered that I love garden stools.

I’ve been playing around with new features of this […]

Over at Contemporist the other day I was introduced to Dan Yeffet and Lucie Koldova who collaborate on many projects it seems. I poked around on Dan’s own site of his work with his studio, JellyLab and found a whole bunch of neat stuff. The first way to my heart is through felting. The above […]

So many worlds colliding! This weekend I’m heading to Chicago to meet my boyfriend’s parents for the first time. As a result, I was Googling around for cool interior decorating stores we may want to stop into and came across Elements Chicago. Looking around, looking around…I came up Dunes and Duchess’ candelabras. Turns out these […]

With less than a month to go before moving I find that I’m pouring over design magazines, online shopping and visiting interior design shops everywhere I go. In NYC I visited places like Elizabeth Bauer Designs, Tamara Magel and Room and Board but one spot I didn’t get to was Haus Interior, where a friend […]

Also while in NYC this weekend I went to the New York International Gift Fair – when I was living in NYC I always wanted to check out the show but never had a way in. A few lovely ladies from Natural Life attended our Nest cocktail party at Tamara Magel’s showroom on Friday night […]
