Slow Style Home: Decorating Personal, Meaningful Interiors

You want a home that’s uniquely you. One that reflects your passions, values and lifestyle. And you want to create one on your own, without having to hire a designer, breaking the bank, or hurting the planet. The challenge is that there are too many voices telling you what trend to jump on, what rules you must follow, and what “beautiful” looks like. Plus, you don’t want to scrap everything you own and start all over. It’s hard to know how to wrap your arms around this big, important concept called “home!” On this podcast, you’ll learn from the experts exactly why some rooms work (and others don’t), how to master a mix of styles and preferences when you have a bunch of them jumbled together, and inspiration for being brave and taking the creation of your dream home into your own hands.

Want me to stop in your hometown on the book tour? Leave me a message with your thoughts on where I should hold an event (a bookshop, gallery, antiques store, garden, historic home, etc ), and your contact info.

Show notes

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

In this episode of the Slow Style Home podcast, I sit down with Kay Pressney and Becca Cherry, authors of 'A Home for All Seasons.' They advocate for aligning home decor with the natural cycles of the seasons, instead of commercial holidays. Both guests share how their deep-rooted connections to nature influence their design philosophies and discuss the concept of biophilic design, which integrates natural elements into built environments. The conversation explores how small, mindful changes in our homes can enhance well-being and creativity, emphasizing the use of natural materials, colors, and textures. We also discuss how being attuned to the seasons can foster a deeper connection to nature and a more mindful, balanced lifestyle.

The Making Of A Design Book: An Inside Look At The Publishing World Jun 19, 2024

Show notes

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

In this episode of the Slow Style home podcast, I take you behind the scenes of my journey in writing a design book. Despite my experience interviewing design book authors on my podcast, I knew very little about the editorial and publishing industry. Feeling burnt out from the podcast and desiring a new project, I decided to pursue my idea for a book based on my 'slow style' philosophy.
The journey was challenging; I hired a book proposal coach, navigated feedback from publishers and agents, and faced the hurdle of a low social media following. After overcoming many obstacles, including rebuilding my Instagram account from scratch due to hacking and negotiating photo usage rights with various photographers, I eventually signed with an agency and secured a book deal with Gibbs Smith.
The process of writing the book was both daunting and exhilarating. Now, I've completed the manuscript and photography, with the editing process up next. I’m also excited about my plans for an engaging book tour, aiming to create memorable, inspirational events for readers. My journey thus far has been educational and fulfilling, and I look forward to sharing more details as the project progresses.

Going Green While Getting Clean: The L'Avant Collective Approach May 06, 2024

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

Today we’re talking cleaning products. Specifically, the process of developing and manufacturing eco-friendly, safe-for-our-skin cleaning products, with Kristi Lord and Lindsay Droz, co-founders of L’Avant Collective. Like many of us, they wanted a plant based alternative that actually worked as well as the chemical laden products we’ve been using. So they decided to do something about it! We also talk about the power of scent when it comes to motivating us to deep clean our homes and the ways in which you can use their multipurpose cleaner for unusual spring cleaning tasks. Even though I clearly love what they’re doing and would personally recommend trying out their products, it’s not an ad, it’s real!

Breaking Design Rules With Purpose: A Conversation with “The Nester” Myquillyn Smith Apr 29, 2024

Show notes

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

“Break the rules on purpose because we believe the room will look better. Not because we don't know better.” That's the premise of Myquillyn Smith’s new book, “House Rules.” In my conversation with her we pull apart some of these key rules and why they’re so useful, across the board. I love her examples of balancing casual and formal elements, the value of antiques and art, and how decorating with meaningful objects is better than decorating with diamonds. The Slow Style philosophy regarding intentionality, contrast, and patience in home decor comes through loud and clear. I’m so happy to have Myquillyn back on the show!
