Our New Home: House Tour Part Two

Yesterday, our new home here in Connecticut was featured over on Domaine.

I was so excited that I went ahead and posted a rare afternoon “double” post…yup, I can’t play it cool to save my life.

Today’s post is a bit more of our house, starting and ending with our new kitchen…since it was that fated “one room challenge” that had me scrambling to get Nicole Cohen up here so quickly to photograph this room after we moved in.

The day that Nicole came up we must’ve taken about a zillion images, so of course there will be a lot more photos of my house in the weeks to come, including a few before and afters.

I’m thrilled with the way that these came out, it’s hard to believe we’ve only been living here for exactly two months!

Our New Home – A Quick Tour

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know we’ve recently moved (two months ago!) from our New York house to our new home here in Connecticut.

Over the summer and right up until the day before we moved in here, I took part in the popular “One Room Challenge” wherein I crazily attempted to renovate our kitchen (above) along with the help of Muse Interiors in six short weeks.

Well, the kitchen was mostly done when the six weeks wrapped and we moved in here.

However, it wasn’t fully complete (actually, it’s still not 100% finished-you can see the tape on one of the cabinets where the handle hardware should be!)

I wanted to have professional photos done to really showcase all the work right.

So, last month, Nicole Cohen of Sketch42 came up here from the city and took some amazing images, including my still yet to be finished kitchen.

Anyway, today Domaine is running a full home tour of our house along with an interview.

I selected several of my favorites to feature here as well, along with as many sources as I can remember.

For all the kitchen sources, please be sure to check out the “One Room Challenge” post as they are all listed there!

I’ll be back tomorrow with a few more highlights and sources and also some of the rooms and images that haven’t been seen on Domaine.

Making a big splash in the home decor world, Chairish is an online market place where design lovers can buy and sell vintage furnishings and art. There’s even an app where you can buy and sell right from your phone! (If you’re already reading this on a mobile device – here’s the direct app link). The whole concept is brilliant and the selection is amazing.
With Holiday soirees and gift giving right around the corner, the new vintage fashion department at Chairish couldn’t have come at a better time! To say I’m obsessed with this idea would be an understatement. There are so many amazing pieces guaranteed to up the chic level on any outfit, it was hard for me to narrow it down to these twelve here…I’d love for you to head on over to Chairish and see the full curated collection that I was thrilled to put together for this fun and addictive site!
