{Yes, I know how scary this 3D pic of our Baby Liess looks... All of that tissue looks like hair!! My 4 year-old looked at it and said, "Oh... it's a girl because she has all that hair!"} Ah vell.
We've also had some really nice mentions & magazine features lately.
Thanks so much to Victoria Magazine for including me in their Special Entrepreneur Issue!!
The article I was featured in focuses on women who have created businesses out of their passions. (I'm honored to be included among them.) I'm feel so lucky to be working in a field I love so much, but owning your own business puts you not only in your field of work, but also into the "entrepreneur" category. It's a hat you sort of put on without realizing, and it was really interesting to look back for this article & talk about how I got my start & the business going.
Before the article, I was unfamiliar with Victoria Magazine, but I was BLOWN AWAY by some of the homes featured in this month's issue. (and flowers!!) Serious eye candy & I'm hooked.
I was also thrilled to be included in Washingtonian Magazine's new blog column of before & afters by DC area designers. (click on the link aboce to view it.) I can't wait to check out the next ones!
And thank you so much to Cassandra Lavalle for including a snippet of my bedroom in this month's issue of Rue Magazine!! It's a great little page that shows unique ways to store your magazines.
{I keep my current ones in this massive old bowl}
So be sure to check out Rue --- I am in love with a photo collage one of the rooms in there this month!
And finally... we've been working on our back office some more. Our desks & chairs came in- yay!!
{Don't you love my Christian Patrick Liess originals hanging on the wall above my computer?? - left}
We're doing inspiration boards along the entire wall above our desks & my assistant, Meghan, has been gathering hers up for a while now. The other walls are full of shelving which is making life soooo much easier.
Anyway, I'm off for the day but have a great one!!

I don't think I've ever commented before, but I'm a daily reader. I couldn't help but write a little note after reading this post -- my sister is a photographer for Victoria magazine! Small world :).
Congratulations. How exciting. I actually think the babies picture is interesting. It kinda looks like twins. The detail on the face is incredible. Ultra sounds wern't around when mybabies were born. I would have loved that.
Congratulations on your new May arrival... how exciting! All of the mentions and features are so great too. Its hard to do it all but you make it look easy! Thanks for the inspiration!
How wonderful on all fronts! Big Congratulations on your expanding family.
You really did a beautiful and unique job on the house featured in the Washingtonian. I love that you think outside the box and truly personalize your spaces for the clients. I also love the rug in the living area. Would you mind sharing who makes it?
Did you find out what you are having or are you still waiting for the surprise? Baby looks great!! So exciting!! Thinking of you and so happy about all of the wonderful notice you are getting--so deserving!!

Congratulations on the new addition to your family. How exciting! Your office also is looking so cool. Can't wait to see how this comes together.
Congrats on your new arrival coming soon and your mentions! I just had a baby a month ago and we had the 4D done this time...it really freaked me out how detailed all the features were...the technology they have now days is great! My little girl actually opened her eyes during mine...didn't know they opened their eyes in the womb!
Congrats on all your news! I never tire of seeing your bedroom & your office is looking seriously beautiful! I love your design aesthetic!

Hi,
I just found your blog and have been pouring over it today. I must say I am in love with your hammered metal office desks. Would you mind telling me where you got them? Hubby and I desperately need joint office space & these are perfect. Thanks!
Congrats! I love you bed so much and I am looking for a similar style head board/frame! Any thoughts?
