As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, these pregnancy hormones have me swinging from mood to mood with hardly any notice. It seems like I experience absolute joy, anger, frustration, heart-breaking sadness, peace–everything–every day! Since my paintings are inspired by my life that week, I put all of those feelings in one chaotic (but thoughtful) painting–which consequently also describes my life this week–and call it Moody. It was a fun painting to do. Lots of vibrant colors juxtaposed with muted mints and neutrals and an inky dark thrown in. Overall, it leaves me feeling…happy. A good place to be.
How does it make you feel?
For more details, photos or to purchase this week’s painting–click here. If you miss snagging the original, high quality giclee prints are available today (!!!) in a variety of sizes. A quick note on those: Things were getting kind of crazy with so many listings for the same painting (just in different sizes), so I did a little spring cleaning and consolidated. Each painting still comes in 4 frame-friendly sizes, choose which print you’re interested in and you’ll see a drop-down menu to select your size in the listing. Cheers and happy weekend!
Our wood grain Shaker cabinet fronts were designed for busy, high-traffic homes like ours. Clad with durable textured thermofoils, this line is compatible with Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgon, and Besta cabinets from IKEA. It's the perfect, practical way to add the warmth of wood to all the rooms of your home.
We have teamed up with Loloi to create a line of rugs that are as affordable as they are beautiful. This collection houses a great mix of traditional and modern rugs, in cottage-y colorways, as well as vintage-inspired beauties that you’ll want to roll out in every room.
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]
