Light fixtures can be transformative. This much is true. When we first bought our home, I luckily had the vision to see passed the plethora of confused 1990’s lighting.

What I’m loving right now – October
Fall has arrived and I'm reminded of the best quote in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. "But I want it now Daddy!" I want everything. I have an extreme and unrelenting thirst for everything.

Anyways, I digress. I wanted to share more than a few items that are currently inspiring me. Some are attainable, some are not. All of them are whispering my … READ MORE

Only a poet/story-teller could articulate all of my feelings in a way that had me standing still for 10 … READ MORE
