TheGlamourai's Profile

Hello everyone; thanks for checking out the house tour!! Will do my best to answer all your questions:

@ Lisa Hunter: I found the review signs next to the dumpster of an Off-Broadway theater! I dragged them to the basement of my at-the-time office building, where they sat until I found a friend with a truck. I just HAD to have them!

@ Blandwagon: "Glamouramous" is an old joke between the writer of this story and us. "Mount Glamouramous" was the theme of a Greek Bacchanalian-themed party at my last apartment.

@ Buster1: the bottles below the studio sink are used to store filtered water for our workspace ~ to save a trip upstairs every time someone needs a refill. We used to keep store-bought bottled waters down there, but these reusable glass bottles make for a much greener solution. They're definitely NOT a prop :)

@ sunan: Greg loves the place! He's so relieved I stuck with a desaturated (ie: gender-neutral) palette, and compromised my lifelong goal of having a pink kitchen ;)

@ mlme: the West Elm side tables are super sturdy, but not super comfortable ~ which is why we added the sheepskins to the tops. With that little addition, they're comfortable enough for multi-hour dinner parties!

dspero & citipearl: The only thing we really struggle to keep clean is the black rug ~ if it's not vacuumed weekly, it SHOWS! Otherwise, the place isn't really as high-maintenance as you might think. Although, Windex is obviously our friend ;)

@ emilykayeb: the "Ever After" print was a gift to Greg on our second anniversary. I found it at a gallery in Canada ~ but can't remember the name of it for the life of me. So sorry!

@ Oregon74: the desk-tops, legs, and cabinets all came from Ikea.

@ ericasullivan: I guess it's not for everyone ~ but it certainly suits our lifestyle. We don't entertain a lot of 2-year-olds, otherwise it might be another story!!

Hope that answers everyone's questions!
