Happy Easter Everybunny! This “holiday house” is down the street from me close to the Bainbridge Island ferry ⛴ terminal. The woman who lives here gives us something EXTRA every holiday 💓 ((I hope she feels the love right back))💓. Her place puts a smile on my face and I hope yours too! 😁 Swipe to see Milo vs. the Easter Bunny. 🤣🐕🐰 (at Bainbridge Island, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcdS6TeFH1N/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Designing women at @conservatorycoastalhomeshop. OK, a designer/writer, a writer and a designer…why does this sound like the start of a really bad joke? 🤣 We are, in fact, plotting the design of a photo shoot for @tidelandmag at Charlottes beautiful beach house (@saltwaterhaven which is the most charming air BnB) located on the spit. The layout will incorporate products from Conservatory Coastal Home, Alexander & Nye, as well as the Lending Library at Sustainable Bainbridge. The lending library is a fabulous free resource for borrowing dishwater, glassware, table linens and more for weddings, parties, fundraisers and events. Love collaborating with talented ladies! 💕 (at Bainbridge Island, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbUCDhQu5bW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Obsessed! Inspiring spaces edition. Visited a gem this morning while location scouting for Lifestyle & Home decor pages that I’m curating for @tidelandmag - summer issue. ((What would you do in this space?)) Read, write, paint, daydream… This lovely home is an Air BnB on Bainbridge Island called Saltwater Haven - it truly is! I’m in love!! #inspiringspaces #waterfronthomes #airbnb (at Bainbridge Island, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CafjLeOPFNU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Say hello to my little friends! 🪴🌱😀 created by artist @gerrardleah for #modernairhead these petite air plant vessels make unique Valentine’s Day gifts with an artistic vibe.

A few weeks ago I discovered my stripper name by pairing the color of my eyes with the last thing I ate (thanks to a Fb meme). The result is a delicious tale of Blue Peppermint, aka Blue Pep, aka “turbo burbo” (burlesque boss). Link to the @bainbridgereview article is in my bio. The article also illustrates the issue of increased screen time resulting from the pandemic - enjoy! Just curious…how many twisted turns have you taken online? What’s your stripper name? Are we all just three clicks shy of normal? #bluepeppermint #bluepep #designermonologues #columnist #columnista #burlesque #fantasy #screenhabits @ditavonteese @bainbridgereview (at Bainbridge Island, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZXRcb_PZ5L/?utm_medium=tumblr

For a fun read on how our fur babies influence our decorating game, check out my @bainbridgereview article, FURniture, FURnishings & ReFURbishing. My column officially has a proper name, the Designer Monologues and I couldn’t be more excited to pen fun, humorous and quirky stories which I hope provide a brief respite from some of the serious, stressful and dire news stories we see everywhere.
