Hey there. You may have noticed that I’ve taken a month-long break on the blog. My muting started with the murders of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Tony McDade. It simply felt too trivial to talk about paint colors when we were on the edge of another civil rights movement.

The things on my mind this week including painted ceramics, the show I’m binging, new PJ pants, a Sudoku video, 50 ways to be more sustainable, $100 off wine, fighting racism, supporting local workers, temporary tattoos, and my monthly playlist.

The things on my mind this week including finalizing a kitchen cabinet color, my antique wedding ring you spotted, lava rocks, postcards, neighborhood cohesion vs. property value, new shorts, wallpaper I can’t stop thinking about, and time flying.

The things on my mind including a portrait on our front steps, an art print that I can’t stop staring at, becoming a hairdresser, dogs doing dog things, ranking lamps, pants with elastic, a funny construction bit, how infectious disease shaped American bathroom design, four tips to transcend design trends, a sweatshirt of my favorite city, and my monthly playlist.
