The Apartment Therapy folks emailed me this morning to give me the heads-up that our house tour was going live this morning!! Check it out here: Liv, Jeff and the Friendly Yeti Sharing a Home.
These were my favorite pictures:
And a few D'OH! moments...The cord on the lamp above on Jeff's dresser. That's always tucked behind the dresser, and yeah, that stuff bothers me. The dead lightbulb in the bathroom which I should have replaced but I really want to change that stupid light fixture so the dead lightbulb is my incentive to get it done. My bangs. My outfit for that matter. I have cuter clothes. I also wish the Andrew Brandou piece and my vanity were included but everything else is so cool! Bethany takes amazing photographs, and Marcia edited the shoot really well. And I'm so happy Lily Mae made appearances!! She's my favorite accessory.

Loved your AT tour! It was one of those few and far between homes that feel like it could be my own home. Alas it is not... :)
I'm desperate to know the paint colors you used in the family room & art studio. So similar to a green I attempted but mine is too yellow in certain light and needs an 'adjustment' (read: repainted).
Again, great work!
So glad to have seen your house tour and now your blog. Such a cute couple with a great home and an adorable kitty. We have two cats and both are special needs. So I do understand your issues in taking that in consideration when decorating etc. They are worth it.

what a great surprise to open up AT today and actually recognize a fellow lynbrookian as the featured house tour. i graduated in jan's class way back when... i LOVE the yeti, and your house is beautiful. congrats on the soon to be new addition, i am expecting my first as well in 2 months. good luck and congrats again!!
That green is of course the only paint in our house that we didn't choose! So I'm sorry, but I can't say what it is exactly. I did bust out my Mythic Paint swatch palette though and it seems to be closest to a color called "Canvas Tent- 0772". It's less of a green and more of a khaki so I think that's why it reads as a warmer green. Definitely not on the yellower side. I hope that helps!
Hi Colleen!! Thanks so much for the sweet comment! And congrats to you too on your soon-to-arrive baby! Jan is coming over to hang out today, I'll say hi for you! Good luck with the whole labor thing... :)
Go Lynbrook!
Visiting from Apartment Therapy. Congrats on your pregnancy. I loved your house -- the wood floors are beautiful! And you did a wonderful job pulling the furniture and your art pieces together. What a fun environment!

I absolutely loved your AT house tour! Your style is amazing and totally resonated with what I want for my humble abode. I was drooling over your dining room and especially your craft room!
I saw your awesome apartment on AT, and I'd love to know where you got the pattern for the little "don't puke" cross stitch. A friend of mine wants me to stitch one up for her. Thank you!
Thanks Sherezada! "Don't Puke" wasn't a pattern, just one I made up with cross stitch grid paper and my book on cross stitch alphabet fonts. The little flower border came from the Subversive Stitching book. You can also find cross stitch alphabet patterns online for free. Happy stitching!
Thanks so much, Liv! I'll do just that. You did an awesome job designing it!
