Magazines have been the heartbeat of my work life. It has also been my friend Ki Nassauer’s. So when so many publishers stopped publishing our issues we both had to find another medium to share our love of homes and anything home related.
This week I am sharing and celebrating Ki’s new endeavor: her beautiful digital magazine LIVED-IN STYLE. If you love vintage you will love this colorful, nostalgic, endearing, and informative publication.
When Robin Smith saw a longhorn skull in her friend Debra Mangual’s home furnishings shop,The Vintage Soul, she decided it was time to change her decor. “I was ready to redecorate,” Robin says,“ and that skull was just what I needed to get started.”
Another favorite little home is Diana Heard’s California cottage. It has many fine French items married to more rustic ones. Diana’s style is very personal and ever so cozy. Come take a look.
Rene’s lovely little Seattle home is not fancy or spacious but it exudes charm and comfort. It is in fact a small apartment that embodies Rene’s decorating ingenuity (on a budget) and her take of French country style, which includes a little romance (of course!) and a touch of shabby.
It has been several months since I moved to beautiful Stonington Borough, the most charming little village only 4 miles away from Mystic, CT and 8 miles from the Rhode Island border. The house I rented is lovely but it came furnished and the rooms were painted in a variety of colors. This post is about how I updated the interior and ‘beautified’ the exterior, hence the before and after photos. Come on in!
