Now you would think with that name the founder would be an honest to goodness Farmgirl, her complete passion for farm grown flowers simply grew organically into a business.  Nope.  Christina, the ‘farm girl’ wanted to start an innovative business ‘that would make a positive impact in the world.’  She had plenty of...

Yes, Lenny.  Yes I am.;) I recently saw him in concert.  Hubby refuses to let me bum rush the stage any longer, but we got as close as I could without disturbing the masses.  He was wearing a snakeskin blazer, a red plaid fabric sash thing that had his right pec hanging out and some crazy ass silver beaded necklace...

These prints from the Artwork Factory popped up on Gilt again.  I love them, funny, irreverent sayings beautifully printed with interesting backgrounds.  This one looks vintage, but the saying is so not.  Might get this for Ethan’s room, makes me giggle. I used a couple of these in the foyer here mixed with vintage...

It’s beautiful. I am a self proclaimed bar cart addict.  There is no 12 step program for this particular type of addiction yet I continue to hold out hope;).  This Ken Fulk’s bar cart from Pottery Barn is a STUNNER.  I love everything about it, everything.  Let’s delve, shall we?   The Big Beautiful Wheels!  This baby...

I LOVE a great reupholstery job.  It’s such a great feeling to see the final product.  There was a time I thought maybe I could reupholster chairs myself, there are all kinds of blogs showing bleak befores and awesome afters.  There are also many youtube videos showing you step by step how to do it and what equipment...

West Elm Terrace Coffee Table The website says it’s online only, but I promise it was there in my store, see!  I have mad love for this coffee table for a few reasons. The bottom shelf is a...

What can I say, I love this store. Wandered in yesterday to return some Dash and Albert rug samples I had borrowed for a client’s house.  And every time I go in I spy something new.  I had seen this wingback chair previously but I hadn’t yet recognized the genius of it… that my friends is a slipcover!  Let me tell you...

I have wanted one ever since I saw a photo in a mag with one dangling in between 2 vanity mirrors.  Oooh!  Maybe I could hang one over my bathtub!  OK, that is totally going to be in the works although there is a pot light up there, and then there is the whole code business.  Code schmode. Anyway, I have a client with...

You never know what you are going to find at my favorite trash to treasure source, Urban Ore in Berkeley.  I head there often and come home with great finds.  This week I am helping a friend furnish her new home in the wine country, she is going for cottage chic, light and airy and bright… and I had my eyes open for...

My favorite store for all things home decor, stationary, toiletries, etc. opened a new huge 2nd store location right down the street from me and Scarlett and I stopped by as we heard there might be cupcakes involved.;)  I would buy everything in the store if I could.  Seriously.  Thank goodness going to the store...
