bash, please has a new home! check out our “workstead” featured in the latest edition of Rue Magazine (page 46). we’ve been dying to share it with you since we moved in in January – but these things take time people. we’ve scoured flea markets, vintage stores, craigslist and our own homes to curate a space that exudes our personal style and makes us feel right at home. come on in…
and home it is. but not just because of the long hours we spend there. our space was a labor of love that included so many people we love and respect. our amazing husbands painted (and repainted) walls, built reclaimed wood shelves, hung art, installed light fixtures, and poured many a glass of wine for us. our favorite officemate annie mcelwain created a stunning photo wall for the loft space. Jeni found us the most perfect leather club chairs and linen pouf for our meeting space (this woman makes miracles happen!) thank you for filling our space with magic and love and specialness. we love it here.

I loved what you all did with this space. Such a great place to work. I especially loved the plant in the shiny oscar the grouch trashcan. So cute!
P.S. I featured a couple of pics in my weekend post. I love your blog.

I love the reclaimed wood shelving system!! (I mean I love the whole thing, but that’s definitely a fave!) How did you make it/what are the supports?
Karen March 31, 2011 at 12:16 pm
hey ladies, amazing amazing space. I just wanted to know whether you bought the large multi-picture frame, or did you custom make it? It’s just brilliant.

Hello! Just browsing through you’re blog. I love that white acrylic (?) sign above your couch that says “don’t trip chocolate chip”. Where did you get that awesome thing?!

Oh my love! Seriously this place is amazing. Awesome awesome job. I have a question about your shelving. Did you paint the pipes or did you find them in that black color?
