Proud to be Tulsa People

What a lovely way to leave 2013 and head into the new year, a beautiful article sharing a little about what we love most in TulsaPeople Magazine (Page 76!). It's been a great big year for us.

There is so much gratitude in our hearts for the support of our friends, family and customers.

A Room Where I Could Fall in Love

A Room Where I Could Fall in Love

Secret: when Ashley and I put rooms together in the store, we come up with a pretend person who lives there and develop ideas about his/her personality and life. It helps us make a coherent space.

For our most recent room, we used a real person but made up a situation. Below, meet my husband Ryan's efficiency apartment. This is where he'd live if he was a bachelor, and the place where he'd charm me into loving him (As if his blazing red hair is not enough on its own!). Of course in this scenario, we've met later in life at the store.

Retro Den Office Renovation on Prairie Hive

Retro Den Office Renovation on Prairie Hive

Ashley and I had the incredible pleasure of furnishing a 6,500 square foot downtown Tulsa office space for Consumer Affairs, a super cool software start-up. Our friends at Prairie Hive helped us document the before and after process; read about the project and see photos on their blog.

We rescued this gorgeous conference table top and paired it with a set of metal bases. The table top was too long to take up the stairs or the elevator, and we were finally told it wouldn't be able to make it to the second story office. However, we brought in our friend Fix-It, truly the great fixer of everything, for his opinion. He spied an industrial lift sitting on the street outside the building and said we simply needed to find whoever owned or was renting it.
