Before you dive head first in to transforming your home into your own little Stars Hollow it is important to think […]

It has been far too long since we have had a before and after blog post around here (check out some past B&As here and here). Our team has been working on a client closet design project recently and the transformations are amazing! The client moved into a new home in DC and is in […]

My girls are going to be attending school completely online (at least for the first semester) but I know that a lot of families and school districts have kids heading back into the classroom either full […]
