Designer Pads for Paws!
Last night we had a successful turnout for the PAWS charitable fundraiser event we hosted At Hom. For more information about this wonderful orginization and their mission
in San Diego visit www.pawssandiego.org
I was one of the designers who participated in creating a custom pet pad for auction to raise money for the organization. My inspiration behind the bed was to create a multifunctional "up-cycled" bed that was aesthetically pleasing and yet a statement piece for any home. I purchased this beauty at a local thrift store...sanded, painted and lightly distressed it for a complete make-over. Along with building up the base to create a cozy pet hideaway in a fun striped fabric with new drawer knobs from Anthropologie. I think our Lila-Mew would have enjoyed this little home!

Paring Gold, Silver, Olive Green and Poppy Blue creates a dramatic statement~! |

Detailing ...
I believe good design is in the details. Whether it's for the home, accessorizing your wardrobe, playing up your office, reading a good book, cooking a dinner for two, or throwing a celebration...Create little gems that will be remembered. These are a few beauties I'm day dreaming about that add a touch of interest to the everyday!

San Diego...
It's been one awesome year of California living so far and we've had the opportunity to really embrace San Diego and all the beautiful surrounding places! It's easy to get wrapped up in the everyday living of a routine work-week...so it was nice to take a look at all the wonderful things we've done this year and really just enjoy having the ocean, mountains,
and desert all at our finger tips!
