Sixth Street bungalow mood, incoming. If you caught my last blog post, you know why this little Columbia charmer has our heart-porch culture, tree-lined sidewalks, and just enough history to whisper what it wants.

We’re still in pencil-sketch mode, but the North Star is clear: honor the bones, design for everyday rituals, let it feel slow and lived-in.

Think: porch lamps at dusk, a tiny side-garden with French doors off the sitting room, café curtains + lamplight everywhere, maybe a quiet painted check underfoot, and a pink-bath wink because why not. If you want the deeper dive (palette, layout thoughts, all the cozy details).

Comment INSPO and I’ll DM the blog. Save this for later—and tell me your favorite Southern paint colors or porch rituals!

Week-at-a-glance:
Oregon → Tennessee, mile after mile. Gas-station snacks, car karaoke, stretch breaks, repeat. Popping into Round Top today (manifesting major scores) and last night we bee-lined to @thegardencompany—order the brussel sprouts and thank me later. Also, icy cold sauv blanc = elite after a 10-hour drive. TN, we’re almost there. New chapter loading.

Phase 2 of So Susie Headquarters is here✨

You saw us transform her upstairs office/family hangout—now the main floor got the full glow-up: formal living, pantry, kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room. So much color + pattern play, warm textures, and lived-in layers tying it all together.

Designing with Susie is a joy-she’s wildly creative-and our hope was a home that matches her energy and heart. Here’s a little sneak peek from last week’s shoot... more reveals + sources soon.

Comment ‘QUIZ’ and I’ll drop my 2-minute Style Quiz in your DMs so you can put a name to your vibe (and actually shop/plan with confidence).

I made this because so many clients tell me, “I don’t even know where to start.” Your style is the north star—once you name it, decisions get easier, rooms feel consistent, and you stop impulse-buying the wrong things.

The five styles in the quiz:
Mountain Modern Ranch • Timeless Colonial (Modern Twist) • California Casual Cottage • Understated Eclectic • Old-World Charm

Tell me in the comments which one you’re pulled toward most!

Sometimes design feels like the easiest way for me to tell my story. These are the things that inspire me, ground me, and keep me moving forward. Thanks for being here with me.

The switch into fall used to stress me out-now I make it a ritual.

Comment ‘FALL’ and I’ll send you a few of my favorite things that help me get into the seasonal spirit!

A little vision board, a couple tiny home tweaks, and a short list of intentions for how I want the next few months to feel. If you’re craving a softer pace, you’re not alone.
Save this and share it with a friend who could hear it today.
