This is the craziest Pilea of our collection. It's about four years old and one of the oldest we have. We call it our Godmother Pilea, because it keeps on giving new babies and keeps growing. The secret? It was never repotted, it sits in a window on the east side of the house, so only get's a little morning sun and the rest of the day just daylight and once a month we add a little plant fertilizer to the water.

Walk-in closet - mid-sized contemporary gender-neutral dark wood floor walk-in closet idea in New York with shaker cabinets and gray cabinets

Nils & Kyle needed to remodel their outdated fireplace. It lacked appeal and essentially was hidden by seating. That all changed when we removed the bulky pop outs. Removed the dated tile and the built-in hearth. After all the demolition, we began to install a black matte 12X24 porcelain tile in a brick pattern from the floor to the ceiling. We installed a new 56” Modern flames landscape fireplace that modernized the space and lit up the room. With this change Nils and Kyle will never hide this fireplace again. We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with them and we can't wait to work with them in the future.

A full bottle of vinegar fell out of the refrigerator and the homeowner was not physically able to clean it up for hours, resulting in terrible etching and discoloration of the marble floor. I didn't take any before pictures, thinking even we would not be able to repair the damaged areas. Much to my surprise, not only did we get out all the etching but restored the original color as well! The floor is beautiful once again just like it never happened. We were able to save the homeowner thousands of $$$ in tearing up and replacing the marble kitchen floor.

The original 2nd bath in this 20 year old home had never been updated. We created this new look on a budget but added tons of style!

Mary’s floor-through apartment was truly enchanting . . . except for the tiny kitchen she’d inherited. It lacked a dishwasher, counter space or any real storage, items that have all been addressed in the makeover. Now the kitchen is as cheerful and bright as the rest of the home.

The homeowners never used their large bathtub, since it required too much water to fill. So, we replaced it with a standard-size soaking tub, thereby gaining some precious square feet of extra space in the master bath.
