INTERIOR DESIGN

Life seems to be built around memories of defining moments. Perhaps you look back to college graduation, the day you started a first job, a first date that turned into a life long commitment, a big move, the birth of a child etc. Layers upon layers of these moments that when all woven together create your life tapestry. What we often forget it how much these layers rest upon others. Friends, family, and community play such a role in how these layers interconnect. I tend to think about moments in my own life that have felt defining. Those moments that have created a directional shift and many of them don’t come down to just those BIG moments, but those small moments when I followed a gut feeling and made a spontaneous decision, or when I trusted in the vision of someone else and followed their lead, or when I simply let go and let things flow. As @laurenlcaron reminded me in her post (speaking of her visit to Seattle four years ago) made me look back on a defining memory. Three years ago this weekend I was planning for a photoshoot with a simple vision. To create imagery that would help express my love of hosting and gathering. Little did I know the impact that photoshoot would have on the next three years...The talents of @gillianstevens and the support of @robrdeane helped me make this idea a reality and since then so many of you who I’ve connected with since have been an integral part. Each and every one of you have added a new thread or layer enriching this life tapestry. Perhaps whenever you feel alone or are struggling to know a next step look and see who’s around you. We are all in this together!

I am really loving our fireplace nook and with fresh flowers it doesn’t get much better.

That one time we had a vineyard picnic at sunset. So much excitement for this project. More soon!

Love the home of @_harlowejames she is a styling genius.

The best friends I could ask for.

Morning hike up Oyster Dome followed by at stop at @taylorshellfish

Beautiful weekend celebrating great friends!

Foggy and still morning at Roche Harbor.

Picked up a few pretty pieces at the Kyoto Antique market on Saturday. Absolutely love the wood fired bizen vessel and the weathered wood bowl.

Sometimes you’ve got to play tourist in your own city and marvel at the architecture you pass by in routine.
