The Highs of High Point

So I turned 40 this week, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. It's finally nice to have a huge milestone for myself and not just for my kids.  I feel like I am also hitting a milestone in my career, as we focus more on design. So of course, I had to experience the mecca of Home Design--High Point, North Carolina. OMG!

New Trends in Nursery Design & Baby Gear

Back in the day I used to hold on to floor models like they were GOLD.   Not anymore. You like it you buy it, it's gone.  We bring things to the studio floor & sometimes they leave quicker than I want.  Had you visited us last weekend, you would have thought we had nothing to sell. So my boys at N-Route brought some new pieces. You know I try to jam everything but the kitchen sink into 900 square feet. I wanted to take a moment to give you a feel of what we have on board.

Girl Bosses of Bethesda! Take 2

I had so much fun introducing everyone to the fabulous girl bosses of Bethesda last fall. Our readers nicely received the blog and some folks actually gave them a ring. It really was so cool to be able to highlight such hardworking entrepreneurial women; I couldn't wait to do it again. It takes a lot of guts to step out & open your own business. I’ve watched these 6 women put in so much hard work throughout the years & to see them flourish in their craft is amazing. I am honored to call them friends.

Meet Dana….

Hi, I am so lucky to do what I love everyday!  When I owned Daisy Baby & Kids boutique in Downtown Bethesda, MD for 12 years, I designed over 1,000 nurseries & children's rooms across the DC metro area.  

In 2015 I introduced Everly & Monet to focus on interior design services.   I believe in design that is simple, functional, as well as, inspirational. When you work with me, you get to work with an expert who will bring your Pinterest board to life.
