These particular clients are friends and neighbors of ours, living just a few streets over in a similar craftsman style home built in the read more >>
Styling Your Nightstand
When my husband and I first moved in together, we were barely making ends meet and had to get pretty creative when it came to furnishing our first home – a 900 square foot condo near Love Field. We became Craigslist addicts and I pretty much made garage sale-ing my Saturday morning routine. The coffee read more >>
The SURPRISE Nursery Project
Laura, a friend and client of mine, called me earlier this year with a question. She and her husband were expecting their first baby and per his family tradition, he wanted to keep the gender a surprise. Unfortunately, Laura had always envisioned a gender specific nursery and the surprise aspect made planning more difficult. So, Laura asked if read more >>
Knox’s Nursery Scheme
Baby Butcher #2 has a name – Knox! It wasn’t that long ago that we were posting Nola’s nursery. If you can remember, we had every intention of our kids sharing their rooms. Oh how naive we were! When they’re older, yes – I would totally love to have them share a space. However, after read more >>
Long Time, No Talk!
Hey Strangers! How the heck are ya? While things have been quite busy on the client side of Gilded Heights, the website and blog have been victims of severe neglect. Yikes! So, I’m on a mission to get some things updated and post pictures and more content. It’s been over a year since GH has read more >>

Eye Candy
Welp. It’s up! Our tile, that is. The verdict? It’s so, so good. The saturation, the scale and the pattern. I’m seriously in love. Here are just a few shots of our guest house bath renovation (better late than never.. ). Don’t forget that there is plenty more where this came from! We’ve got lots read more >>

Mixing Metals
I think one of the biggest misconceptions about interior style is that all of your accented metallics should be consistent with one another. In fact, I think doing so will make a space feel more ‘forced’. That said, mixing metals should be done thoughtfully. Here are a few tips that might help you in your read more >>
How To: Floral Arrangements
Let me first start out by saying I am not trying to become the next Martha Stewart, nor am I starting a wedding floral business. I just really happen to enjoy arranging flowers. Seriously, to a totally nerdy level. Recently, I was tasked with table scape/decorations for a friend’s baby shower. So, I thought I read more >>
Guest House Inspiration
Part of our backyard make-over includes the renovation of our detached garage. The garage was so far down the driveway behind the house that we never parked cars in there. For the past two years, it’s been a dust filled, over-sized parking spot for our bikes. We could certainly use the additional guest space as read more >>
