A Fine Design / 10 - 1 - 25

/

Planning a room layout and sourcing pieces for a client is one of the most enjoyable aspects of my job. This week I’m sharing a Teenage Boy Design. I concentrated on Blues, Greys and Driftwood tonality of wood and brought in Brass accents. I had to use this cool side table with a built in charging station. Design is all about understanding the use of a space and bringing it to Life!

I sourced elements as a design professional others as a consumer through - All Modern, Amazon, Crate & Barrel, Ikea, Pottery Barn Kids, Raymour & Flanigan, Target, Visual Comfort, Wayfair and West Elm.

A Day Spent Thrifting 9 - 13 - 25

Hi Friends I love nothing more than chronicling a day and sharing it here with you! On Saturday September 13th I went off with friends to visit the Maplewood Mercantile - it was our first visit and it did not disappoint!

The Mercantile has a mix of clothing and decor as well as furniture.

I found the cutest little brass cuff bracelet with a bamboo design.

The lovely ladies who helped us with our treasures!

The mercantile is located at: 145 Dunnell Road, Maplewood, NJ 07040. After shopping we had a delightful lunch at St. James Gate and don’t forget to check out a complete list of my thrifting haunts here on my Curation page.

Til next time be well and please let me know where the last place is you thrifted or antiqued! I’ll see you over on Instagram.
