I’ve mentioned before but I’m not a minimalist when it comes to clothes and accessories–I have a lot fo stuff. It’s part of the job, partly because I worked in fashion for awhile, and mostly because I’m a huge clothes lover. I DO keep things for season after season; but I also let things go […]
When you move into a new house (or 95 year old house in our case), the easiest thing you can do to update the space is add a fresh coat of paint. Before we moved in, we had the whole first floor of the house skim coated (to make the bumpy plaster walls smooth) and […]
It’s been awhile since I shared what we’ve done, what we haven’t done, what’s been delayed and what’s sprung up in terms of our home renovations. Well, folks, today is the day. And I’ll tell you–I have an ambitious summer ahead. What We’ve Done (In Order): Pre-move in (paint the molding, re-stain the floors, skim […]
It’s here! Behold: our long-awaited master bathroom renovation reveal. Join me for a good before and after along with what we learned during the process.

I posted about Elemis yesterday but I just saw that they’re running a friends & family promotion off their […]

As you might know, I love my living room. It was the first completed room in #thisoldtudor and it’s our “adult room.” Before we moved in, we skim coated the walls, painted everything, including the moldings, Benjamin Moore “White Dove” (see post here) and then updated the mantel (see post here). Havenly helped me turn […]
So, we’re currently living in our guest bedroom while our master bath/bedroom is being renovated (see our renovation priorities here). It’s temporary but it’s really tight in there. I haven’t done anything to the room and after living here for the past six weeks, I realized the sheets from 2007 need to go. We received […]
