Small Space Solution: Puzzle Tables

Besides nesting tables, another great solution to add more flexibility to a small space are

PUZZLE TABLES.

To me, they are all about the cool factor. 

These are the not-quite-as-functional but super stylish cousin to the nesting table. 

Puzzle tables can be bunched together for a large surface area or broken up into small sections.

 

 

Quite the conversation starter, no?

Life's CRAZY busy again. Here is how my days have been going lately:

1. Wake up, get dressed, get out of the house.

2. Run to client's homes for consultations and/or run to stores to source products.

3. Go to my full-time job for 8 hours.

4. Make dinner from scratch because I can't do take-out anymore with my new diet.

5.  Tackle at-home design work including sourcing products, placing orders, answer emails, etc. etc.

6. Cuddle with my husband and/or puppy before turning in for the night.

Holy. Cow. 

Does anyone know where I can buy some extra hours for my day?

I'm not complaining, it's good to keep busy. 

Especially when I get to create chic rooms and use fabulous products, like this beauty:

It's a pretty table overall but look at the detail on the top:

Yup. It's just a little herringbone action for ya. HERRINGBONE.

I. Die.

Anyone out there have any time management tips??

I could use some right about now...

Objet D'art: Sculptural Antlers

Using antlers in decorating has received a bad rap in years gone by.  Lately though, I've seen 

SCULPTURAL ANTLERS 

show up in some extremely chic rooms.

They are perfect for the holidays too! 

How adorable would it be to hang delicate ornaments from each point?

The antler in my home is from a hiking trip I took with my dad and brother about 15 years ago.

My dad had kept it in his basement and I was able to dig it up.

Now I need to figure out if I want to leave it plain, 

paint it white, or maybe paint it a funky metallic like chrome or antique gold....

If you aren't lucky enough to live in an area where you can search for naturally shed antlers,

no need to worry, check out these picks:

Isn't the antler wreath bananas?  And LUCITE antlers?? I mean... I die.
