Brunching with my favorites



Some of my very favorite people in this design business are Lauren Liess and Eddie Ross, both of whom I had the honor of spending a good part of the day with when Eddie came to town last week for a book signing of his fabulous book Modern Mix.  In the lovely setting of Lauren's Great Falls, VA studio, we lunched, networked and visited with local design friends, sipping champagne and talking for hours.


The food was impeccable and the company even better. I loved perusing her studio and touching her textiles up close and personal. The studio blew me away, so let me share it with you.









Eddie Ross is such a breath of fresh air.  His energy and magnetism are infectious.  His book is filled with so many great ideas.  This, along with Lauren's book Habitat, are serious guides for professionals and novices alike.

Thank you Lauren and Dave for hosting this wonderful event and for being so genuine and generous. It was a wonderfully inspiring day.  

Happy Holidays to all!

Lauren Liess & Co. Shop Tour


This past weekend we went to the opening of Lauren Liess's new shop in Great Falls, Va.  We were welcomed by Lauren and Dave and spent a few hours visiting with them and taking in all her beautiful fabrics and market finds. Her exclusive textile line is overwhelmingly beautiful and the quality and colors are more amazing in person.









The ambiance is warm and inviting in a home-like setting.  Lauren is so open to sharing her ideas and future plans and is a genuinely lovely person inside and out. Dave was pretty great, too!





I hope you can visit her shop, but please be sure to check out her portfolio and textile collection at LaurenLeiss.com and follow her life as a Mom of three boys, shop owner and uber talented designer on her blog, Pure Style Home.

Happy journey to Christmas!
