    Playing pretend and re-/finishing designing our kitchen at home. Sources as follows: La Maison Pierre Frey wallpaper, “Lasso” Dining table from @Mid70s Vintage chandelier and cannisters from @SunbeamVintage Arizona Quartz Slab, “Seashell” The Tile Bar, 24″x24″ quartz tile (already installed at home) I think wallpaper is the bee’s knees in general, but especially yearn for…

  • house tour: kitchen

    We loosely and only halfway renovated the kitchen as you can tell by the state of the cabinetry. It already had many contemporary features, like the island, and we loved the warmth of the room but ripped linoleum and decades old 1/2″ grout around the sink begged for replacement.

    Being in this store makes my homesickness palpable. Before we left I wasn’t able to get all our draperies made, and since we knew we’d have renters we went neutral on the carpets. Maybe I could move into one of these dressing rooms and they wouldn’t notice… ::Le siiiiiighhh::

  • house tour: dining room

      Finally sharing the first room tour of our house a mere 2+ months after renting it out to complete strangers (*real tears*) and starting with the dining room because that stopped-in glass used to stop my heart every morning. With the exception of one of the books on the credenza and the New Mexican…
