Hand-etched Footed Floral Glassware

Lately, we’ve noticed some recurring questions come up around our work — where we’re located, how involved clients need to be, and what you’re really investing in when you hire a designer. This post is meant to offer clarity and context, not overwhelm.

And if you’re still wondering about something specific, feel free to reach out. Thoughtful questions are always welcome here:)

Unreasonable. Not practical. Not safe. Not “that’s good enough.”

Unreasonable passion.

For the way light pours into your kitchen at 4pm. For the way your sofa feels at the end of a long day. For the dining table that holds sunday dinners and hard conversations and belly laughs.

I don’t believe in designing homes that are just fine.
I believe in spaces that make you feel something.
That tell your story. That hold your memories.
Because this life? It moves fast. Our babies grow up. Seasons change. Chapters close.

So yes... I’m going to care deeply about the tile.
About the trim detail. About the way the space flows.
Not because it’s “just design.” But because it’s where your life unfolds.

This testimonial from a recent Designer for a Day session is exactly why I do this work.

To hear a client say they felt truly heard means everything to me. Beautiful spaces matter — but if a home doesn’t reflect how someone actually lives, who they are, and what they value... then we’ve missed the point.

Every project begins with listening. Understanding rhythms, routines, priorities. Designing from there.

It’s such a privilege to collaborate with clients who value intentional design, thoughtful planning, and homes that feel deeply personal.

If you’re ready for a space that feels like you, DM us to inquire + learn more about Designer for a Day!

Pink paint doesn’t have to feel girly! And if that sentence alone makes you nervous... keep reading.

In honor of Valentine’s Day, I pulled together a roundup of my favorite pink paint colors.

Some l’ve loved for years, and a few I’m seriously considering for a room at our #SixthStreetBungalow... any guesses?

The truth about pink paint? It’s all about undertone. When done right, pink can feel grounded, warm, and feminine... but with an edge. Not sweet, not juvenile, not bubblegum.

Look for dusty, muted, brown, or beige-leaning pinks that read almost neutral on the wall. Avoid anything too bright or overly saturated (those are the ones that scream “little girl’s room” fast).

Save this for the next time you’re flirting with pink paint—so you can order the right samples and fall in love with the result!
