My stairway to heaven! After a massive gut renovat My stairway to heaven! After a massive gut renovation of our 1896 Hamptons home that took years to complete, this is the staircase to our master bedroom. It has been such a labour of love and it’s been worth every minute. It’s so pretty, isn’t it? #myinteriormonologue #myhomestyle #interiormonologue #hamptonslife #thisoldhouse #ledzeppelin
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #13: John Derian & Astier de Villa CRUSH CAMPAIGN #13: John Derian & Astier de Villatte⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @astierdevillate was created by Ivan Pericoli and Benoît Astier de Villatte in 1996 and is manufactured in their Paris workshop. For many years now, I have collected their pieces and there is never a trip to Paris where a trip to their store isn’t on my itinerary. I have many, many pieces and can honestly say it is just about the only thing I collect. Yes, it is true. I have a real “collection” of Astier de Villatte!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They are one of the only studios to keep the traditional artisanal ceramic product in Paris still going after beginning in the 18th century. Known for their one of a kind ceramics, each is constructed in Paris from black terra-cotta clay and finished with a soft white glaze. They partnered with John Derian, of @johnderiancompany, who has retail stores located in New York City. This collection is filled with John’s most beloved images paired perfectly against the crispness of the tell-tale white finish of Astier de Villatte ceramics.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you ever find yourself invited to dinner at my house, you can be sure that dinner will be served on Astier de Villatte. Now I just need to learn how to cook! See yesterday’s post. ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link to full editorial in my bio!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #supporthandmade #handmadeisbetter #artisanmade #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo #supportthemakers #supporthandmade
I am so happy! This cookbook! This arrived as a su I am so happy! This cookbook! This arrived as a surprise for me and it’s the best surprise ever! Falastin is Palestinian 🇵🇸 recipes from my father’s homeland by one of my chef heroes of all time, @sami_tamimi of Ottolenghi fame and @tara.wigley! This is the food of my childhood. My grandmother aka Teta would visit us in Chicago and I’d find her in the kitchen singing in Arabic while she cooked. All. Day. Long. Nothing smelled better on this earth then the scent of her cooking. She didn’t speak much English but it didn’t matter. Believe me, we sure spoke the same language when she cooked! A love of food crosses all barriers. So imagine my absolute delight when I received a package the other day with this cookbook inside. It was sent to me by one of my nearest and dearest friends @toastncandy just to make me smile. I sure smiled! And shed some tears! It filled my heart with such joy to open this stunning homage to my childhood and my favorite foods and to know that a friend like Nancy thought to send it to me! I don’t talk much about my father’s heritage. My heritage. My father spent a lot of my childhood being “American” and I don’t talk much about where he is from. I know that being a Palestinian refugee, my father spent most of his life without a home or even a passport until he moved to the US at the age of 19. So he assimilated as best he could and my mom being a non-Arab from the south side of Chicago, we just didn’t talk much about his previous life in Palestine or in Egypt where he grew other than when my Teta visited. Then the house was filled with scents and spices and music and a language that made my heart swell and my stomach celebrate. I think it’s time to learn how to make some of these dishes myself and pass this on to my family. And I’ll play some Umm Kulthum while I cook just like Teta did. ❤️ #myinteriormonologue #falastincookbook #palestinianfood #interiormonologue #craftsmanship #artisanmade

Home is where the heart is. Now more than ever. Th Home is where the heart is. Now more than ever. This dining room of ours has had so many new memories created around it as of late. Since March and the lockdown, it hasn’t hosted any big dinner parties, but it has seen more family-only meals in these past few months than it has seen in it’s lifetime! Fierce Uno matches (the young one usually wins) and even fiercer Monopoly games (I usually win. I’m good. Just sayin’...). There has been lots of laughter and story telling and quite a few tears of frustration have been shed here and some shared sadness as well. That’s home. I love this home we built. I love filling it with things I plan to keep forever and hand down to the next generation. 🖤 Through all of this home time and quarantining and isolation in our “bubble”, I’m really seeing the silver lining in this dark cloud of time for so many of us in our country and in the world. So much feels like it’s all so wrong. So I am taking comfort in our ability to stay grounded in our space and yet push hard for change and true equality for all and I will continue to shed those tears but also find a reason to laugh once in a while. 🖤 #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #myinteriorstyle #myhome #craftsmanshipmatters #artisans #handmadeisbestmade #interiorinspo

CRUSH CAMPAIGN #12: Cake Atelier Amsterdam⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This might be one of my most favorite discoveries. In fact, it may be one of my most favorite finds, ever. If you like cake, weddings, and flowers, this is a match made in heaven. The epic talent I want to showcase here is Natasja Sadi, founder and baker at @cakeatelieramsterdam, and she is the force behind some of the most amazing wedding cake and flower creations on earth. Natasja has always had an affinity for all aspects of a wedding. She states, “ever since I was a little girl I’ve been madly in love with elegant princess dresses and fancy flower bouquets.” Flowers, however, are her favorite. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Natasja is known for her delicate and intricate keepsake sugar flowers as well as her weekly Sunday posts on her amazing arrangements utilizing both real and sugar flowers in blue delft pottery she has collected. She thanks her design background for her attention to detail and ability to replicate the construction of each petal of a flower with delicate precision. I truly have never seen anything like it! And Natasja takes pleasure in it: "if people wonder what is real and what is sugar? That is when I'm most excited."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link in my bio to full editorial! 📸 Photo by @cakeatelieramsterdam and you can buy a print of this photo on her website as well! Have your cake and eat it, too! ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #blacklivesmatter #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #supporthandmade #handmadeisbetter #artisanmade #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #11: Spinelli Kilcollin⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @spinellikilcollin was founded by husband-and-wife team Yves Spinelli and Dwyer Kilcollin out of their garage on the east side of Los Angeles in 2010. In the beginning of his design journey, Spinelli was searching for a minimal take in a world of ornate jewelry. Inspired by an architectural standpoint, he created these set of linked rings in different weights to be worn a handful of different ways - stacked or spread across the fingers.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now, the brand has expanded into eyewear and even furniture with the same values intact. Their iconic jewelry remains handmade in LA by the finest artisans. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These beauties are on my all-time wishlist. Crush central.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Link to my "Anytime Gift Guide" editorial where @spinellikilcollin was first featured in my bio!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo by @sevlasphoto for Spinelli Kilcollin.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #supportsmallbusinesses #handmadeisbestmade #makersfirst #artisans #craftsmanship #supportthemakers #supporthandmade #handmadeisbetter #artisanmade #craftsmanshipmatters #interiordesign #interiorinspo #supportthemakers #supporthandmade
Home. Old doors. New walls. Old floors. New rug. O Home. Old doors. New walls. Old floors. New rug. Old leather chairs. New sofa. Old table. New pottery. Old horns. New glassware. Mixing old and new. That’s something I now realize I consistently gravitate towards. I guess one can come to this conclusion more pointedly at this moment in time as we are in our homes so much more. I haven’t actually purchased anything in a few years for this particular room save for the pottery you can barely see on the right side. Makes me think I made the right choices. Although I really cannot wait to bust outta here! Wear your masks people. Wear them. 🖤 #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #myinteriorstyle #interiorinspo #hamptonslife #artisanmade #craftsmanship
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #10: Kai and Sunny⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Let’s talk a little more about screenprinting, letterpress and the art of illustration. Quite a combination of disciplines and this duo from London named Kai and Sunny do it oh so well! Say that fast 10 times. (Wink.)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @kaiandsunny are most inspired by natural forms they reduce to geometric patterns and figures and then translate into large-scale installations, hand-pulled screen prints infused with copper and stardust, and unique letterpress prints. Limited edition and quite a feast for the eyes, the delicacy of the line work on these prints is something to behold. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Want the full scoop? Want to know why I am crushing on this maker?

Homemade cake and spring flowers and darkly painte Homemade cake and spring flowers and darkly painted walls and hanscrafted ceramic dishes that you buy once and keep forever. It’s a sort of ritual I find myself doing when I need to feel more grounded in my space. Now the flowers have wilted. The cake has been inhaled. The rest await a fresh batch so back into the cupboard they go. Anyone else have a ritual they do to create a sense of grounding? #interiormonologue #myinteriormonologue #myhomestyle #interiorinspo #bakersgonnabake #handmadeisbestmade #handcrafted #craftsmanship
CRUSH CAMPAIGN #9: Vetro Vero Glass⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I recall I stopped in my tracks and my jaw dropped when I first saw this display of @vetrovero glassware. Isn't it stunning? Vetro Vero has the steadfast mission to preserve traditional techniques and express creative innovation through obsessive excellence in design and craftsmanship. Case in point is this stemware. These mesmerizing hand blown glass creations are made in Pennsylvania by a husband and wife team, Michael Schunke and Josie Gluck. I have been a longtime fan of Vetro Vero and was thrilled to meet them at the AD show in NYC a little while back. What's even more unique is their studio, housed in a repurposed creamery building next to the farmhouse where they reside. Keep your eyes peeled for what's next from this dynamic duo!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Check out this fabulous maker and a few of my other hand selected picks from the AD Design Show and DIFFA back when we went to these types of things.
