For next week’s radio show, I pre-recorded a session with one of my favorite people, Meg Mateo Ilasco. She was in town for Design Week, so I scooped her up and stole her away to the studio wher...
I’m not a drinker; in fact, I drink so rarely that I consider myself a teetotaler. However, I do try the cocktails featured on the column each month as I photograph them, and I admit that I rea...
This week’s vegan cookie and last week’s best of vegan recipes really have nothing to do with each other. I did notice, however, when going through our archives that we don’t have m...
Growing up, every so often, Mom would pull out the sleeping bags, air out the pop-up tent, gather a book of matches and tell us it was time to go camping. Although the locations varied, two things we...
I know the idea of repurposing artwork drives some people insane, but I’ve seen so many painted canvases torn in the streets of New York that I love it when people find new ways to keep them in...
If I could sum up my life’s color palette over the past year, it would be pink + coral + gold = happy Grace. From last year’s D*S book to our new office tables and front door, these same ...
One of the joys of working for D*S is our loyal readership. We love seeing repeat submitters over the years because it means we get to follow their lives a little bit: first home, first office, first...
Today’s second and third Before & After projects celebrate pattern and color — they are both maximalist in the very best way. This first colorful home renovation comes from Aimee Daniels. A...
Sometimes the simplest projects are my favorites, especially when they provide dramatic results. I’m such a wimp when it comes to sanding; I just don’t want to put in the time to do it, a...
There is a huge part of me that would happily spend the majority of my day bent over a piece of linoleum carving stamps. They remind me of being in the printmaking lab in college, but in miniature fo...
I love any design that encourages people to connect and engage with food more often. I’m someone who associates food with happiness, so these sorts of clever designs are always my favorite. Bud...
In the spring of 1995, Joy Kiser walked into the Cleveland Museum of Natural History in Ohio ready to begin work as a newly hired assistant librarian. At the foot of the staircase that led to the mus...
It seems I have a clutter problem. Previously it was piles of mail; this time it’s piles of magazines. Riffing on the form and function of my last post, the mail basket, I thought the same cons...
I’ve been dreaming of making a giant cross-stitch project for years now, and when I saw Jessica Decker’s oversized cross-stitched artworks, I became even more excited. It’s an immed...
Leave it to a 1950s musical to turn a factory union labor dispute into a sunshiny love story. The Pajama Game is just that, the story of an employee organizer who enters into negotiations with a paja...
It’s always a little sad to reach the end of my photos from Design Week each year, but here we are again. Today I’m posting the last of my ICFF photos and celebrating some of the beautifu...
Oh vintage signs, you always steal my heart. It’s impossible for me to resist a good marquee sign, and one day when I have a bigger apartment, I’m going to bite the bullet and get one. Un...
Kim at The Wild Unknown is always creating beautiful illustrations. Her latest project is a series of 78 tarot card prints that come in antique frames. These limited edition prints (only one of each ...
Every year, more than any other holiday, I stress about what to get my dad for Father’s Day. He is the kind of man who doesn’t like a lot of “stuff,” but the stuff he does hav...
Today’s Biz Ladies post comes from Mariah Danielsen, an award-winning graphic designer and marketer who discovered that she could build a business around what she loves: weddings, stationery an...
Image by Mary Kathryn Paynter Today’s Wild Love post is about a couple that was a true tour-de-force, elevating style, art, fashion and taste during a time when it was only just becoming cosmop...
Hopefully, I’m not alone in saying that the weekend wasn’t nearly long enough. (I can’t be the only one!) But I’m looking forward to many more summer weekends away, and while ...
Today’s Long Beach City Guide comes from Sharon Fain, a SoCal native who thrives in sunshine and maneuvering busy freeways. A Long Beach resident for four years, she loves being able work from ...
Good morning guys! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend and were able to rest up and recover. I’m still adjusting to the heat here (time to break out the AC units), so until I can coo...
Before I head out for the long weekend (yay!) I wanted to share a gorgeous engagement party that is so full of beautiful color and flowers that I couldn’t resist it. Seattle residents Mark and ...
When I went to Australia earlier this year, I overdosed on egg and bacon rolls. I sent an enthusiastic email to Grace about how I was enjoying recreating my own here at home, and she wrote me back th...
Even though I covered new wallpaper from ICFF yesterday, there was still plenty of pattern floating around the show. From flat weave rugs to incredible woven seating, designers definitely didn’...
The stationery show is always full of creative design, but it’s impossible for me to not have a few personal favorites that stand out not for trend or design purposes, but because I love them. ...
ICFF coverage is coming to a close, so I wanted to get a few last minute favorites in before the week is over. There were some really fantastic new lighting designs this year, so I rounded up my favo...
I feel like this post should be titled, “Shauna and Stephen never sleep”. The incredibly talented duo behind Something’s Hiding in Here and Forage Bowties have done it again, launch...
