Best-ab-workout-of-your-life-and-my-cheeks-will-never-be-the-same-again laugh sessions. My family is hilarious. Lots of decorating. I think I am helping about 5 different people decorate while I'm in town. I'm really excited about this one! Arts and crafts. My mom is like the original Martha. She is so amazing and crafty.

Copy Cat Designing

An LGN reader, Sarah, wrote me an email about how she shares my love for this room that was posted on Friday. Sarah just got a promotion (congrats!) and moved to a new apartment in San Fransisco.

It was originally designed and produced by my favorite rug designer, <a href="http://www.madelineweinrib.com/ama/tibetan/Brooke-Orange.html">Madeline Reinrib</a>, then later knocked-off by Pottery Barn and West Elm. I prefer the West Elm version, which comes up for auction frequently on eBay.
