I'm often asked how to pair rugs together based on a color scheme. I love mixing and matching rugs throughout my home, and I want to help you with the selection process! So I'm using some of my most loved room colors in my house as a jumping board for which CLJ x Loloi rugs […]
Last fall, I started designing a nursery for my sister's newest addition. Her baby arrived early (on January 1st!) and over the last month, Chris and I have been on location finishing it up just in time for her to move out of her bassinet and into her crib and brand new nursery. Today, I […]
We've been on a journey to find the perfect exterior color to pair with our red brick. You see, our windows need replacing, so we're taking this window of opportunity (see what I did there?) to paint all the exterior trim, soffit, and fascia to match. We color-matched my top window colors, and we've been […]

You may have noticed (maybe not) that I've been dancing around a somewhat sore subject: the study.

I feel like I've been painting non-stop for a year, to be honest. And when I think about what's next to be painted, I always think about what is already painted, what color and where. And then I try to tie it in in other areas of the house so everything speaks to each other. […]
Ah, the magic of paint strikes again. Greta's bathroom has always had good bones--the classically tiled shower, wood dresser vanity with great curves. I even loved the beadboard. A couple months ago, we tiled the floor and gave everything a fresh coat of paint (Alabaster on top and painted the beadboard Revere Pewter). And then […]
