Because I’m a crazy person, I recently signed on to design and renovate a kitchen for a lucky viewer on Good Morning America with just one week to get it all done! The show recently put out a casting call for a family in need of a new kitchen in time for Thanksgiving and on behalf of Lowe’s I stepped in to help create a beautiful new kitchen for an adorable young family using all in-stock items from Lowe’s and I’m excited to share a look at the before and after process with you guys! First off, lets take a …

Twins Room Makeover 9

Meet Noah and Noemi. These four-year-old twin cuties are my brother’s kids and two of my favorite little people on the planet. I recently redecorated their room, transforming their old nursery into a colorful and fun big kid space. Previously, they were still sleeping in toddler crib beds and now that they’re officially big kids, it was time for Auntie Nicole to come to the rescue! With the help of my sister-in-law, we embarked on a budget-friendly makeover that I’m so excited to share with you! First, let’s take a look at what the room looked like before….

Earlier this year I finished up the redecoration of a condo on the Upper West Side for the most adorable young family ever and I’m excited to share some before and afters from the project with you here! The clients purchased their condo a few years prior to us working together but never managed to make it feel like a home. They wanted a new look for their apartment that felt more polished  and grown up. The priorities were the combined living/dining room followed by the master bedroom and eventually, the kids room (more on that in a future post). …

Tilton Fenwick - Kips Bay Showhouse 2015 Butler's Pantry

The Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse is by far one of the most inspiring show houses of the year and what always impresses me most is the creativity with which the designer’s tackle the toughest challenges when it comes to decorating their space. While some participating designers are lucky to be assigned an amazing room in pristine condition with a perfect layout, other designers end up with far less desirable rooms to decorate. Case in point: my friends Suysel de Pedro Cunningham and Anne Foster of Tilton Fenwick who were given the home’s butler’s pantry which they transformed into a chic …
