I’ve mentioned many times that I’m a huge fan of church conversion projects – well, really any conversion. But there are a lot of church conversions around and I’m always fascinated at how well, or not, the developers managed to turn a cavernous space of the usual church into a comfortable home, or group of … Read more

Okay, so in my previous post on Outlander Season 4, I said that I wasn’t sure about the accuracy of the set design. Accuracy, or lack thereof, is probably a strong word – we are talking about a story that involves time travel. I did, however, think it would be interesting to compare the production’s … Read more

One of my favorite design tricks is the use of a small side table. I love a tiny table!

I wanted to share this beautiful antique Cape Cod home – an 1815 brick Federal style house that’s on the market in Sandwich, MA. My parent’s lived in Sandwich for 30 years and I’ve been by this house a million times. I love it when I finally get to see inside and am happy with … Read more

Many older homes, particularly in New England, are filled with charming nooks and interesting spaces. They’ve evolved over time with additions and other enhancements.
