Concrete Swiss Cross

In the modern and Scandinavian home scene you notice a lot of similar trends. Monochromatic palettes, clean uncluttered design, negative space, candles, wood, black and white etc. One other motif you will note is Swiss crosses.

DIY Marble Shelf

The powder room is small. At only about 4' wide and 8' long, with a closet jutting into it, it's practically miniscule. To even be able to fit into the room, a vanity was vetoed for a pedestal sink. It's great for the flow of the room, but offers no storage, and barely a surface...

Powder Room Art

What a difference a little bit of art can make. After lugging home the big frames last week, and flattening the stored-too-long-in-a-tube art prints, I finally got a print framed and up on the wall. (more…)...

Powder Room Progress

Work on the powder room mini makeover has begun, even with a 3 day trip to the cottage for Thanksgiving thrown in. Here's a quick update on what I've been up to: Removed the ornate mirror, and tried hanging the great portal mirror I grabbed at Value...

Thrift Store Tour

There is one big consequence of blogging, that I never would in my wildest dreams have imagined. Something that caught me so off guard. As a grown up, out of college/university, working a steady 9-5 in an office, meeting new people is hard. Really hard. If its hard to meet ANYONE its damn near impossible to...

Pumpkin Spice All The Things

We at the Storefront are mantel-less home owners. As such, come fall or winter, we are the only blog on the entire internets to not have a decorated mantel. No really, find me another home/decor blog without a mantle post this week. Never to be left out, we tend to decorate the front porch (with...

Tile Tile Tile

Nothing gets me off my arse like a sale. We have a good assortment of tools in the Storefront Garage, but one tool we were missing was a tile saw. I mean a tile saw of any kind. We didn't own a wet saw, or even a simple tile break. I know I know, you're shaking your...

New York New York

I took a quick business trip to New York last week. It was a busy three day trip, with not much time to take in the city. However, I did manage to pop into a few home decor shops, and did some walking, eating and enjoying New York in the fall. My hotel was in a...
