remember how i used to design stuff? i miss it. so fall is my goal to get back in the game. this kitchen was constructed in the depths of my illness, and though my project mangement was for shit, the results still made me happy. #maison21 #interiordesign #losangeles #christianmay

well, i tried to update, but really until i'm working again and have the 💰 to chuck everything and start over, looks like gramma chic will reign in my entry for a while longer. gotta work with what ya got. at least i got to add in a shiny 80s brass lamp, also from my thrift sto' drive by this week. always had a soft spot for these lamps, so i'm calling it a win. #channeling80sgrammachic #always #interior #interiors #interiordesign #interiordesigner #maison21 #christianmay #losangeles #chinoiserie #transistional #notmodern #moderne

ok, so i SO hafta get rid of the starburst mirror in my entry way- it had its moment in 2005. but i'm kinda digging this ridiculously inexpensive tripody-telescopey 3 way LED lamp i just purchased with a credit from @lampsplus. it updates the space just enough that i no longer want to set 🔥 to the entryway when i walk in the door. i got a pair of them for under $100, and they'll eventually be my bedside lamps when summer is over (i have the dreaded inward swinging casement windows on either side of my bed so lamps are a hassle in summer). i also picked these because they pivot to direct the light down or against the wall. since i can't STAND seeing my light source in bed, the indirect reflected wall light works for me! i envisioned a pair of tizio lamps, but this is as close as i get- as a non-working designer, i can't even afford to aspire to champagne taste on a beer budget- more like tap water stolen from a neighbor's garden hose. 😆🤕💥#design ##designer #interior #interiors #interiordesign #interiordesigner #maison21 #losangeles #lighting
