My favorite season of the year is Fall. The change of weather, the fashion, pumpkin everything and my birthday month (October)…what’s not to love! I also love nothing more than to decorate my home for the season. This year, I kept it super with a few pumpkins sprinkled throughout, and really honed in on all the Fall colors like rust, burgundy and sand.

Everyday coastal living is a phrase I coined after really thinking about my design style. The types of colors, textures and products I lean towards and how I want my home (and my clients homes) to feel. And the best part? You don’t need to live near the water to achieve this style.

There is nothing worse than seeing your baby in pain. Poor Joey is cutting all her top teeth at the same time and since she is my second, I figured it would be helpful to share the methods that have helped us the most. Starting with our favorite product (found at Safeway), Orajel™ Non-Medicated Cooling Gels for Teething. Orajel is #1 pediatrician recommended and also Benzocaine and drug free!

I was lucky enough to be asked by Redfin to share my favorite design trend from 2020. The pandemic has had a major impact on how we live our day to day lives. And one place where we can see a lot of the change happening for ourselves is within our homes. From the way we work, to the way we exercise, to the way we recreate. Our homes have had to adapt in ways that we never thought possible resulting in some pretty unique trends in design and functionality both inside and out.

What was it in 2020 that didn’t work for you? What were the voids in your life? What were the things you enjoyed? And what are your intentions for 2021? Hopefully they don’t include any of the things that didn’t work for you last year and a lot more of the things that did! And hopefully they include some new and improved routines and methods that will really set you up to succeed in 2021.

Happy Holidays! Now that we are officially into the swing of the holiday season, I thought it would be fun to do a tour of all the Christmas decor throughout my house this year. Truth be told, I decorated a week before Thanksgiving (which is so early for me) because I was just really feeling in the holiday spirit!
