{Meghan working on a furniture plan }

I'm so excited to introduce you to my new design assistant, Meghan Short!   Meghan recently graduated from the Interior Design Program at James Madison Univeristy -YEAH DUKES!!!.. can you tell I went there too? ;) -  and I'm thrilled to bring her on board.  She's also now the advertising/ PR contact for the blog and if you have any questions you can email her at meghan@thepurestyle.com.

Also, my friend & new blogger Danielle Sigwalt of Fresh Quince  is doing a giveaway of her beautiful handmade pottery.  If you haven't checked out her blog yet, it's all about beautiful green living and one of my favorite features are her "Friday Finds" in which she finds cool craiglist items and shows how you could make them chic.

Thanks Danielle!!


xoxo, Lauren

Congrats. I have to ask is that book the peel off space planning items or is it something different. I remember when I went to school -I went to FIDM as a second career about 5 years ago for design they just came out with a book and the company came to the school and I wanted to see if these were the peel off ones or something different. Would love to know. Welcome Megan - what a great place to work right out of school
