A tiny yellow bathroom — and I’m talking about the “after”! Take a look at the cheerful, compact makeover.
I’ve been sharing progress on Instagram stories for a few months about the back house bathroom project. It was a small space I’d been eager to tackle, and now it’s finished — bright, sunny, and a little outside my usual aesthetic, which made it extra fun.
Below are before photos, the full reveal, and a breakdown of the renter-friendly updates that transformed this tiny bathroom.
After a snowy trip to New York City this week, I am more than ready for spring and summer to arrive. To bring a little sunshine into my day, I created a tropical-inspired cocktail with beachy vibes: pineapple lime sangria spritzers. Light, refreshing, and balanced between sweet and tart, these spritzers are perfect for warm afternoons—whether you’re lounging outside or pretending it’s beach weather while bundled up in a winter coat.
I developed this recipe in partnership with Seven Daughters. It’s easy to make, ideal for sharing, and can be dressed up with extra fruit and edible flowers for a pretty presentation. The bright lime adds zesty freshness while pineapple brings smooth sweetness—together they pair beautifully with a semi-sweet Moscato or a crisper white wine, depending on how sweet you prefer your drink.
Make the most of late-summer peaches with this super-easy peach crumble. It’s best served warm with a scoop of ice cream, a dollop of homemade whipped cream, or enjoyed straight from the baking dish.

The season’s final Valentine’s Day project is here. I went a little overboard this year—there were so many V-Day ideas I wanted to try—but this is the last one for now.
These mini DIY wall shelves were an easy, inexpensive find. I picked up small wooden Valentine’s signs at Target for about $2 each and turned them into tiny shelves using scrap wood and sawtooth hangers. The project is quick, affordable, and great for displaying small items.

Over time I’ve built a thoughtful, well-curated collection of books for my son Hayes. A few are treasured books from my own childhood (my mom kept some favorites for me), but most are newer finds that now fill his shelves and inspire both of us. I wanted to share the titles I keep coming back … Read more
After months of searching for the perfect sideboard, credenza, or buffet for the studio, I finally found one. I wanted a piece with a mid-century vibe that was also highly practical. While I care about aesthetics, I also have a lot of gear and props in the studio, so maximizing storage without sacrificing style was essential.
I partnered with Ave Home, a New Orleans-based furniture company known for classic designs inspired by iconic eras, to show how to style a mid-century inspired sideboard both inside and out. This Anders Sideboard is a streamlined, functional take on a classic dining room piece—minimal, playful, and truly useful. Below are my practical tips, styling tricks, and photos to help you style a sideboard quickly and effectively.
When Jeff and I got married, I bought a box of 1,000 glassine bags to use as guest favors at our reception. It was more economical to buy a larger quantity, so I went for it. We never actually used them at the wedding, though, so I’ve been gradually using them up over the past … Read more
