Wishes for the new year and new decade... that ideas and trees bloom, that we bring both to fruition. That our little ones continue to reach towards the sun. That we have a few moments to nestle in and be still! Joy in all seasons. Wishing you the same! Cheers 🖤 Elizabeth, Adam, Archer August & Ruby Eloise 📷: @jennreppphoto

Headed for the post office- it’s a Christmas miracle! ✨ No, really. It’s been years since I sent out holiday cards, and somehow these came together in a literally feverish weekend, designed while snuggling a sick baby and my preschool plague rat. These family photos by my lovely friend Jenn have fully restored my holiday spirit, if not my health. She captured real joy- hallelujah! I’m so excited to send this magic off to family and friends. 💌 📷: @jennreppphoto

Definitely some seasonal denial happening here, but this ornamental cherry is inspiring me to add some blush and ochre to my Autumn wardrobe.

Thank you all for your lovely response to my ORC reveal! I’m still pondering the working area of the Study. It’s currently outfitted with an antique clawfoot drafting desk (powder coated in jade green by a previous owner). Since it doesn’t offer much in the way of storage space, I’m looking for a small cabinet to tuck in the corner for prints and files. I’ll also be adding shelves above the desk. And when the perfect armless wooden chair appears, this gorgeous chrome Italian number is moving over to MY work space because we belong together (sorry Adam). 🖤

ORC: The End

Well, almost! I’ll be installing lighting, hanging the art, adding storage, and continuing to edit and style. But look! Our unloved spare room is a Study! It has been a pleasure to design this room with and for my husband, and it would not have come together without his painting and parenting! Though this is intended to be Adam’s quiet space for research and writing, he may not get any peace and quiet until I redesign our family Library as well- our three-year-old asked if he could read in here too. I suppose I should start planning for the Spring ORC... Thanks to @oneroomchallenge and @betterhomesandgardens for motivating this and so many more incredible transformations. Cheers to all the participants enjoying their new spaces. This week I’ll share more details from the Study in stories- thank you for following along!

ORC Week 5... and a half... The penultimate update, in which the author regretfully informs her readers that she will miss her publishing deadline. Sigh. The Study is so close, but missing some key components. While I love to design with antiques, it’s not always possible to source and deliver on a timeline. I hesitated on the perfect desk and it was snatched up by a more motivated buyer. I’m also seeing delays from international or apparently indifferent vendors. So it goes! I will always prioritize acquiring the right piece over an arbitrary deadline. Design is gradual. I’ve still truly enjoyed being a participant in the One Room Challenge this season- it’s been the spark I needed to start a transformation in this space. So though it won’t be “done,” I’ll have a fairly dramatic rough draft to share next week.

“Love Song”

Sweep the house clean,
hang fresh curtains
in the windows
put on a new dress
and come with me!
The elm is scattering
its little loaves
of sweet smells
from a white sky!
Who shall hear of us
in the time to come?
Let him say there was
a burst of fragrance
from black branches. - William Carlos Williams

Happy anniversary, Adam. I am loving this long walk with you- every ordinary day. 📷: @jennreppphoto

This wiggly, giggly girl is five months old today. She loves jumping, dancing, grabbing everything she can reach, getting attention from her big brother, and being held by her mama all.the.time. My arms are sore, my cheeks hurt from smiling, and my heart aches because these days are passing so quickly. Ruby Eloise, I am so happy you are mine. ❤️ #ruby_eloise #happiestbaby #parenting #childhoodunplugged #theeverymom #babygirl #momentslikethese #joy #motherhood
