“We spend 87% of our lives indoors. How the indoors is designed affects how we feel, how we behave. Its a frame for life.” -Ilse Crawford

Design isn’t just a visual thing, its a thought process and a skill to enhance our humanity.

A little greenery and a pretty ribbon go a long way! 🎀

As we kick off this series of affordable decorative touches for fall and winter, we’re starting with two of my favorite ways to dress up your home for the holidays.

Ribbon and greenery are cost-effective, reusable, and beautiful well beyond Christmas.
Whether you choose fresh or faux greens, they’ll carry you right into January, adding warmth and a little life when the Christmas decorations come down and the house feels a bit bare.

Pretty doesn’t have to be overtly for one holiday, and decorating well means making your pieces work a little longer for you!

Stay tuned as I’ll be sharing my favorite products and places to shop during this series.

Are you interested in affordable holiday décor that makes a major impact?

What if your grandmother’s teacups, the little plates you can never resist at an antique shop, and that beautiful china you save for special occasions could become part of your Christmas decorating?

I’ve always believed the things we love deserve to be enjoyed, not tucked away behind cabinet doors. So this year, I’m dreaming up something a little different for Bleu Bee Designs: a Signature Christmas tree inspired by collected china, vintage treasures, and all the charm you can imagine. This is for the tiny details you love, displayed in a whole new way: The China Cabinet Tree

Think blue and white porcelain, transferware, wedgwood, pretty teacups, generous ribbon, florals and the sort of thoughtful details that make you stop and smile.

Because a Christmas tree can be more than ornaments and lights. It can tell a story, celebrate a collection, and bring the things you love into your home in a whole new way.

And just imagine one of these beauties tucked into a breakfast nook or dining room, ready for holiday mornings and memories made around the table.

Tell me, would you put a China Cabinet Tree up in your home?
Details coming soon ... 🎀

Meet our Annandale Cottage, a living, dining and foyer concept I curated for a client who desired their home to feel gathered over generations, with a little whimsy, a few well-loved antiques, and plenty of personality along the way.

A vintage style chest, a traditional rug, blue-and-white accents, botanical prints, and a mix of patterns that somehow feel like they’ve always belonged together. Nothing too precious, nothing too matchy, and certainly nothing that looks like it was ordered straight from a showroom floor.

Because the loveliest homes aren’t built around what’s trending. They’re built around the people who live in them, the things they love, and the memories they’re making.

At Bleu Bee Designs, we help you bring all those pieces together, whether you’re starting with a blank slate or trying to make the home you already have finally feel like you.

Ready for a home with more character, meaning, and personality? Let’s talk about your space. I offer in-person interior design throughout Northern Virginia and Florida, as well virtual design services across the country.

Send me a message to get started. Your home has a story. Let’s make it unmistakably yours.

Not local to Bleu Bee Designs but want a designer Christmas wreath, tree or garland?
I’ll source the greenery, ribbons, florals, ornaments, decorative picks, and finishing touches, all in a thoughtfully chosen color palette that complements your home and feels unmistakably you. Have a theme or color palette in mind? I'd love to work with that as well!

What you receive: shopping links to purchase everything yourself, or we can arrange the ordering for you. Then, everything arrives at your doorstep, ready for you to assemble. No guesswork, no wandering store aisles, and no wondering what goes together.

From traditional and timeless to colorful and whimsical, let’s make your home merry, meaningful, and beautifully put together, without adding one more thing to your holiday to-do list.

We can work with the decorations you already treasure, add a few thoughtfully curated details, or create a fresh look that feels right at home with your existing interiors.

The “-ber” months are when the dining rooms earns their keep.
More dinners, more lingering, more people around the table.

We designed this one to be pretty enough for a dinner party and practical enough for everyday life.

Consider this your sign to make room for a little more gathering this season 🩵

It’s a chilly, grey day here in Northern Virginia and it feels like autumn, finally! After a whirlwind 5 days entertaining family for Mr Z’s promotion “weekend”, I’m enjoying the rain and slow pace of getting back into client projects.

Enjoy this cozy and colorful library we designed for our sweet clients in Tampa— proof that cozy doesn’t have to be dark and devoid of personality 🩷

Oh goodness, it’s officially the “-ber” months y’all— and I couldn’t be more tickled!

This month we are leaning into the layers of home - from adding character to new builds (or older homes without details) to the thoughtful ways to put antiques to work in your home as functional, livable pieces and whimsical details (see Purveyor Press | Quarterly Vintage + Antique Magazine Autumn online edition).

We are also building out a Subscribers Only page on our website where we’ll offer more designer-led ways to make home truly yours. Stay tuned!

August flew by without a newsletter but I’m trying to get my act together for a September one 😅 What would y’all like to see in our newsletter this month?
