I know I haven’t blogged in a while, but it wasn’t until today that I realized it’s been basically a month since my last post! Life with an infant has been so wonderful but so exhausting at the same time. I don’t know how Moms with a few other kids, and pets thrown into the read more…
Jack’s Nursery
As promised here are pictures of Jack’s nursery slash the little man cave. You may recognize a lot of the items in the room from previous apartment photo’s since most of them were things I already had. The Mr. and I swapped rugs with Jack so we now have the seagrass rug and Jack has read more…
Christmas At The Studio 2013
I can’t take any of the credit this year for how FABULOUS The Studio looks since I have been in my pajamas for the past three weeks, but I can honestly say I think it is the best The Studio has ever looked! My Mama sure knows how to spruce things up for the Holiday’s read more…
Let It Snow!
Yesterday morning we woke up to find it snowing, which for most people is no big deal but here in DC it kind of is. I knew not to get my hopes up because it rarely ever accumulates to more than an inch and if it does it’s gone within 24 hours. Not that it read more…
My Little Man is Here!!!
My lack of posts in the past few weeks is due to the fact that the most amazing little guy came into our lives… Two weeks ago Jack Boland arrived, 10 days before my official due date! This kid already knows how to please his Mama 😉 The Mr. and I could not be happier read more…
Mom’s New Custom Banquette!
Ages ago I blogged here about progress we had made at Mom and Dad’s house with Mom’s kitchen and porch renovation. I never followed up with true after pictures because until now it wasn’t officially finished. Yi’s came yesterday to install the final finishing touch which just so happens to be the most adorable banquette read more…
Master Bathroom Flooring
I am currently working with a client on her Master Bathroom renovation and we have decided to bite the bullet and go with engineered hardwood as our flooring for the space. The engineered part gives it that extra protection we will need in a bathroom setting, and despite the fact that it is such an read more…
Friday Favs
I’m currently going through a brass phase right now. I don’t know what it is but if I were remolding a kitchen and I had to make the decision today what finish to go with, I think it would brass. The combination of Brass, Black and White is even more fabulous. 1 2 3 4 read more…
Mario Buatta, Fifty Years of American Interior Decoration
Yesterday Mom and I had the privilege of attending a lecture from the Prince of Chintz himself, Mario Buatta. The lecture and book signing were hosted by Cowtan & Tout in honor of Mario’s new book “Mario Buatta, Fifty Years of American Interior Decoration“. The event was held at the Hay Adams Hotel across from read more…
Family Room Built-In Before and After
Here is a photo of a dated Built In at one of Mom’s client’s houses that she had them take out and re-do to create more seating for their family in their family room. Personally I think it is a much better use of the space! There is just something so cozy and inviting about read more…
Instagram & Nursery Sneak Peak
For the longest time I had an Instagram account under the name HauteIndoor, but over the past year whether it was my account or Instagram’s fault, something was happening and it would never let me upload photo’s. It got so frustrating, I finally set up a new account and now things work perfectly. Long story read more…
Halloween at Mom and Dad’s
Living in a garden style apartment building means no Trick or Treaters for us on Halloween. It’s just as well because A. We have absolutely NO room to store Halloween decorations and B- Being as pregnant as I am, the candy wouldn’t last 24 hours; so it’s a good thing that we go to Mom read more…
