Tell us about your journey into content creation and design! How did you begin your career as a designer?
My path to become an interior designer was a non-traditional one. I went to law school, and was a practicing attorney until 2019. Design was my side hustle. I was the person my friends would ask for wallpaper advice, or renovation help. And finally, a few years ago I took the leap. I began helping out friends, then friends of friends, and starting building an Instagram audience. Now, I have a team of 8 women, with projects across the country. It's a dream come true!
Your style in a few words:
Grandmillenial, traditional with modern touches, English cottage vibes
Your forever inspo:
The Cotswolds
Can you give us a glimpse into the process of bringing this beautiful bathroom together?
Sure! This is a nursery bathroom. We began working on this project on a deadline—the homeowner and mommy-to-be reached out to us in April, and she had the baby in September! We completed this bathroom, the nursery and the primary bedroom in 4-6 months (usually a 4-6-month process).
For the bathroom, we replaced a glass shower door with a custom curtain, to make it easier for bathtime and gave the walls a paint job (Intimate White by Sherwin-Williams). Little details were added to make this space feel really special—the custom shower curtain and matching shade in an Ian Mankin green check fabric; a Fermoie shade over the sconces; a scalloped mirror by Oomph; new hardware; and an antique rug.
The design brief:
Wall color: Intimate White by Sherwin-Williams
Cabinet color: White Dove by Benjamin Moore
Window treatment: Ian Mankin Suffolk Check in Sage
Fixtures: Visual Comfort sconce, Sacre Bleu lampshade by Fermoie
Mirror: Oomph, Skinny Capri Mirror in White Dove
Towel: Weezie Scallop Bath Hand Towel in Light Blue on White
Accessories: Rug is The Loom & Company, House of Antique Hardware on cabinets, vintage silver jar and tray to elevate the space
