A letter from the Peach Tree Project

Hand painted checked pattern on hardwood floors, burgundy marble tile, and Calacatta viola counter tops. So rich and layered. Right up my alley. 🤌🏽

Rainy days call for cozy vibes. 🌧️

I shared these on my stories, but I feel like they deserve a spot on the feed. My clients were recently back in town and we had a chance to hang a lot of collected pieces that are meaningful to them, I believe design is all about personality and having items you truly love.🤍

Burgundy cabinets in a small kitchen? Say less!

Before I ever thought about buying my building, I stumbled across a French boutique hotel with burgundy cabinets. I immediately saved it and thought, “If I ever have an Airbnb, I’m doing a burgundy kitchen.”

Fast forward a year or two, and here we are. Burgundy cabinets with a burgundy marble backsplash.

I never once worried that the color would make this small kitchen feel dark. I think we’ve all collected these preconceived notions and design rules over the years. One of them being, “If your space is small, stay away from dark colors. They’ll make it feel even smaller.”

But what if we stopped trying to make every small space feel bigger?

How about we make it cozy, layered and memorable instead? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Views from the Studio. Slowly taking shape between life and work. But fully becoming a transformative space where creativity and style collide.

Today I drop my middle son off at college.

This summer flew by, and I spent my free time painting leaves and petals on my studio walls. I’m learning to fully embrace the life of a creative. I have a creative job, but I take on creative side hobbies to keep my mind from thinking too much about my creative job. Funny how that works. And yet, the most important role I’ve ever taken on is slowly evolving into a new chapter.

Motherhood. Ever evolving. Ever changing. You don’t stay in one season for long, even when it feels like it will never change. The chaos, the noise, the smells, the fights, the friends, the sports. Just making sure that at the end of the day they’re ready to take on the world without you.

Then one day, they are.

You cry tears of pride and joy, but also tears because you know it will never be the same again. You realize all those ordinary moments that once felt endless were actually the days you were building a whole human.

And so it changes, and it evolves. Motherhood does too. And somehow, so do the spaces I call my own.
