Oh, my heart! ❤️ I caught my little Valentine

Oh, my heart! ❤️ I caught my little Valentine in a moment at the @brooklynmuseum and my heart skipped a beat. Little does he know that his Mommy absolutely loves old Dutch master portraits and their ornate guilded frames more than I love Dutch cocoa powder! Question: Speaking of cocoa, is there anything sweeter than watching young ones absorb art? Answer: Nope! #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #craftsmanship #artmakesmehappy

And the Oscar goes to.... Anyone watch the Oscars

And the Oscar goes to....
Anyone watch the Oscars last night? Wasn’t the most entertaining event but I did love one of the earlier moments from the red carpet. This moment of handcrafted fashion perfection. Natalie Portman in this mesmerising, hand embroidered dress and cape managed to capture the red carpet moment perfectly with the subtle and yet not-so-subtle message literally sewn into her garment. The names of the women directors who were NOT nominated in the best director category (since it was only men who were nominated this year...) are stitched into the edging of the cape in gold and it’s genius and it’s so exquisite! @Dior, @mariagraziachiuri and @natalieportman sure made the most memorable Oscar moment for me! The dress takes my breath away and the message is spot on. Stunning! Bravo! 🖤 #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #handcrafted #craftsmanship #dior #atelier 📸 by @gettyimages

I’ve waited until this week to post this pic of two of the funniest, sweetest people I know! Happy birthday week @adick206 and @stevenbeltrani. May you always stand out in a crowd. And no, this post has nothing to do with craftsmanship but it’s FUN. Am I right, Steven? 😉🎂❤️ #interiormonologue ##myinteriormonologue #camochic #friendswhomakeyoulaugh

I have been on my feet for all day for the last two days walking the shows @ny_now and @shoppeobject and all I can manage to do beyond wanting to rip off my shoes and lie down on the floor at Javits is realize I have an obsession for tabletop. It’s real. And that most of the product I have seen the last two days doesn’t even come close to this place setting I photographed @hermes last week. I’m just a bit of a craftsmanship snob I guess. There is a LOT of crap out there people! A lot. Some gems out there but not as much as I hoped for. But that is the reason why I have to do what I have to do next! It’s why I plan to launch the next phase of Interior Monologue to help you all cull through the crap and buy or gift things that are made well and beautifully, thoughtfully and elegant, are modern yet timeless and most importantly that less is always more! Let’s do this. #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #craftsmanship #artisans #handmadeisbestmade

It’s Flower Friday! How about I also combine thi

It’s Flower Friday! How about I also combine this with #fbf and talk about the flowers I did for my family on Christmas. Gosh, I love doing this. It’s soothing. It’s creative. It brings joy for days and days especially when the flowers are super fresh. These tulips sadly weren’t as fresh as I’d normally use despite it being from my favorite flower wholesaler (who shall remain nameless for this post)! I made a junior move by going there on Saturday morning right before the holiday. Which meant the flowers were the ones that have been there for a few days. No one gets a fresh order of flowers on the Saturday before Christmas! Duh! They weren’t going to do anything with them beyond that day as they would shut for a few days over Christmas at that point. I knew that was the case but I loved the color of these flowers. They made the bouquet in my head. No cliché “red and green” arrangements for this girl! So I bought them knowing they would last me only a few days. But beggars can’t be choosers and they were still so pretty. So I drove them out from the city to The Hamptons in buckets in our trunk, and then I got to work. And that joy I had in creating this arrangement (pictured) and a few others to drop all around the house was all worth it. Even if for a few days.... Who wants to join me for Flower Friday? Tell me! I’m serious. #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #flowerstyle #myflowers #flowersofinsta 📸 by ME & 💐 by ME

This achingly beautiful building. I am so thrilled

This achingly beautiful building. I am so thrilled that @fotografiska set its sights on NYC as the first place outside of Stockholm to open their unique museum concept. The fact that they chose a stunning Renaissance Revival–style former church mission house and historically landmarked building on Park Avenue South is even more impressive. I love the love they put back so much love and detail into the facade! It makes me so happy. Don’t you agree? Readers, have you visited yet this place yet? Don’t even get me started on the interiors at @veronika_nyc! I’ll save that for another post. #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #ilovenyc #craftsmanship #newyorklife 📸 by ME

My room with a view. Actually it’s also my home

My room with a view. Actually it’s also my home office and dining table. It’s where I take it all in and try to churn it out. Many days this past week spent sitting here while contemplating each twist and turn of launching the next phase of Interior Monologue. Exciting and daunting. Sort of like the mood of the light I captured in this pic of this great city I call home. I love you, NYC. And if you’re still reading, please tell me: Do you work from home? Do you like it? Please share! Comment below. Let’s start a dialogue! Personally, I find it challenging a lot of the time. 📸 my ME #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #ilovenyc #mycitylife #womeninmedia #mystartup

Ok, ok. I’m not in Paris! Zut alors! I’m not seeing haute couture shows nor am I tallying up all my finds from @maisonetobjet. This year my reality has been nursing my little one back to health after a rough bout of the stomach flu. And praying I don’t get hit with it as a result! But it’s has allowed for time to reflect on things and people and places I love and to work with my developed on the e-comm SHOP that launches 🚀 in the near future. So let’s talk about some product I love.
Isn’t this just the most gorgeous bunch of swirly loveliness? It's called Aptware. Do you know how difficult it is to really, truly make Aptware? Sometime ago I came across a beautiful marbled vase that looked as if it had been crafted from perfectly swirled bits of colorful clay. I feel deeply in love. How could I not? Had to know more about it immediately, so after some extensive digging, I found that the technique belongs to the famed artisans of a small town in Provence called #Apt, where for generations ateliers have been crafting these amazing ceramics.

Named for the region it originated in back in the mid-18th century, the process is a type of faience, similar to Pinchon and Agatware. The marbleized finish actually comes from an array of different colored clays that are all carefully mixed together to achieve the perfect swirl, never letting the colors get muddied or too well blended. Different families and ateliers are all very secretive about their specific recipes for mixing their Aptware, as it is a very difficult balance to achieve. Looks like it would be, doesn’t it? And if I was in Paris, I’d be stocking up on these gorgeous pieces at the dreamy store, @latuilealoup! One day!

Bam! Flowers! Giambattista Valli has created the most magical haute couture collection this season. Well, he does manage this every season so it seems. And guess what? You could see this magic in person if you’re in Paris right now. He’s opened the doors to the public to see firsthand these creations! Say what?!? You’re a genius @giambattistavalli! This Roman living in Paris seemingly has a never ending ability to create gowns that are both ethereal and modern, floral and feminine yet never overly dramatic. Yet it IS dramatic. Am I right? The #craftsmanship on this dress makes my heart sing. #interiormonologue #lovethisdress #myinteriormonologue #hautecouturedress

I captured this image of an amazing mural from street level after spotting it from my neurologist’s office window during a recent appointment for my #tbi and #postconcussionsyndrome. I had to get a pic to share with you as I took it as a sign that was representing so many emotions at that very moment! There were/are: 1) Things are looking up. 2) One should always look up. 3) This city will always inspire me with its hidden wonders. 4) I freaking love street art and hand painted murals. 5) Interior Monologue is what I am meant to do right now despite this year and this accident setting me sliiiightly of course and 6) I feel SO very happy at this moment. #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #interiorinspo #handcrafted #handmade #artisans #streetart #ilovenyc

Oh yeah, it’s my birthday! I’m gonna party like it’s my birthday! After the year I have had recovering from post concussion syndrome and a traumatic brain injury, I am so happy to turn a year older. Talk about a life changing event. I’m so happy to wake up feeling healthy and almost fully recuperated with my beautiful family next to me. I cannot wait to celebrate life! This work of art birthday cake from @flourshop will hopefully be part of my celebration of another year around the sun. And speaking of sons, this is a picture of the cake we served at my son’s birthday party! And my husband’s! It’s so good. Utter craftsmanship. #myinteriormonologue #interiormonologue #itsmybirthday #itsmybday #birthdaycakes #anotheryear

Narnia. It totally exists. I found it. It made me

Narnia. It totally exists. I found it. It made me think some DEEP thoughts. What a wonderfully magical way to ring in 2020. It might have been my frozen fingers that potentially dropped my phone into this Narnia-like wonderland as I tried to capture this moment on the ski lift. But I managed. I felt the urge and I did it! Which brings me to my next thought. I’m not going to write a lot here this time around. New me in 2020 might equate to less time obsessing over every letter of what I post and photograph and spend more creative time and energy just sharing what I find, love, and discover. Yes, I obsess over artisans, craftsmanship and amazing makers. So be obsessed with that! Right? The younger generations don’t obsess over what they post. They just post. Perhaps too much. So this year, I’m just posting. Post on! And in this post, I’m singing the praises for our great Mother Earth. She is the greatest maker of all time. She creates such beauty at the same time she is clearly so angry and hurt by what we have done to her. When will we learn? And perhaps we should all focus more obsessive thoughts and actions around saving her for the future generations so that they have a planet to “post like crazy” on. #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #savemotherearth #artisans #craftsmanship
