Another “draperies make a difference” post from our new Nantucket project. Here, in the supremely shady and restful family library/media room. Awash in a swirl of deep sea colors and textures, we wrapped the room in our new “Abalone on Cork” wallcovering for @vervainfabrics. @lamaisonpierrefrey linen embroidered with seaweed and coral motifs was chosen for the drapery, framing views of lush green gardens outside. Swipe left for a closer look. 🪸 #new #work #photo #interior #design #beautiful #fabric #wallpaper #drapery #love #family #home #decor #life #style #inspiration #photography #color #green #designer #interiors #summer #house #luxury #lifestyle #nature #inspired #homedecor #interiordesign #photooftheday
What did we find on a day trip to Atlanta Tuesday? The ideal stone slabs for multiple rooms in a new project. Armed with fabrics and wallcoverings already chosen and client approved, it was easy to find these perfect pairings for countertops, walls, baths and a marble toped dining table at @marminaturalstone . We’re really excited!

In the sunny kitchen of our Nantucket project where we continued our palette of bright, summery yellow. Here one of two @soanebritain natural wicker@ “Bird Cage” lanterns that hover over the central island. Swipe left for a cottage kitchen cupboard closeup. We do love these @wmorrisandco patterns. 🌞 #summer #kitchen #photo #designer #details #happy #yellow #color #cottage #love #interior #design #home #decor #life #style #inspiration #photography #interiordesign ##new #work #island #lifestyle #colorful #homedecor #fresh #look #interiors #photooftheday
Yes Virginia, draperies do make a difference. We were back in Nantucket this past week hanging curtains in a bright and happy new project there, and if you saw our previous “pre drapery” posts from our last trip, you know what we’re talking about. Just look at the new pics from the sunny family/breakfast area! Our thanks to the talented hands and minds at @teresas_workroom that bring our visions to life. What a difference a day (of hanging custom, handmade draperies) makes! 🌞 #designer #work #day #photo #custom #curtain #love #bright #happy #beautiful #color #yellow #interior #design #summer #home #decor #life #style #inspiration #photography #family #lifestyle #interiordesign #fresh #look #homedecor #interiors #photooftheday
Hello Saturday! Sweet Tucket the spaniel wishes everyone a wonderful weekend from his new summer home in Nantucket. Well, actually, he seems to be telling me to stop taking pictures and play with him. “I brought you my toy and everything .” In the end, I did. Draperies went in this week, and custom cushions and pillows like those in the nook in the background, so now our clients are sitting pretty…and comfortably. So is Tucket. Happy weekend everyone! 🌞 #sweet #dog #new #work #interior #design #photo #summer #home #decor #life #style #inspiration #photography #puppy #love #beautiful #house #fresh #look #interiordesign #luxury #homedecor #island #lifestyle #puppylove #dogsofinstagram #happy #weekend #photooftheday
Beautiful gateway…but to where? The Atlantic is on the other side, clouded in the oblivion of morning fog. We’re back on Nantucket Island for a drapery installation this week and all is going well. Heading home tonight as the weekend looms. Gateway to the weekend? The gates to heaven couldn’t be more beautiful than this rose covered portal near our project. Have a beautiful weekend everyone! 🌱🌸🌿 #early #morning #view #rose #love #fog #magic #ocean #sounds #interiordesign #work #day #beautiful #gate #pink #flowers #island #life #style #inspiration #natural #beauty #summer #friday #interior #design #homedecor #peaceful #landscape #photooftheday
Happy, happy, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to this amazing gentleman! Handsome, successful, kind, loving, thoughtful…I could go on and on, but all who know you know this already. Your family, friends, neighbors and I are so proud of you and all that you do. When this new issue of @washingtonianmag arrived in the mail on the morning of your birthday I knew what today’s post would be. Kismet! Congratulations Will! And again…Happy Birthday! You are loved beyond measure. 🎈🥂🍾 #happy #birthday #post #special #guy #photo #handsome #gentleman #forever #young #happybirthday #photography #love #congratulations #magazine #photoshoot #realestatenews #life #celebration #happiness #work #play #your #day #favorite #smile #july #10 #photooftheday
Designer Tuesday work day. We checked the progress of a dreamy cliffside residence hovering over the waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Here, details of the “hers and his” baths for fabulous longtime clients and friends, en suite to the home’s primary bedroom. Lots of natural stone surfaces and @waterworks fixtures were selected. We think they’re coming along just fine.
