BAM! for Bubble Lighting This week, I want to mix things up a little bit. I love color, but when it comes to paint I typically stick with neutrals on the wall, bringing in color through art and accessories. Earlier this week, I was reading through the March’s issue of House Beautiful on color and [...]

I hope you had a terrific weekend. I spent a portion of my weekend working on the kitchen. I finally broke down and painted! Originally, I had planned to paint the room a dark charcoal.

Last weekend, I spent a little bit of time contemplating my next project. I think I have finally decided it will be the kitchen… I am getting the itch to paint again and my cream, over-sized, sterile kitchen is starting to get the best of me. The rental kitchen is large and very open. It [...]

BAM! for Bold Geometrics I was reading an article recently on lighting trends to watch for in 2013. One trend that was mentioned in the article was sculptural lighting.

Today’s recipe, Parmesan Crisps, will be one of the easiest hors d’oeuvres you will ever make. They only take 10 minutes from start to finish, but the flavor is undeniable. Most likely you have everything you need to make these in the kitchen right now. They work beautifully on their own as an appetizer or [...]
