Janis Nicolay flew in this past weekend to shoot our apartment. It was so much fun! She's so down to earth & friendly.
My HUSBAND also made a bunch of hors d'oeuvres - with edible flowers - aren't they pretty?????? He is so AWESOME & helpful!
I can't show any pictures just yet, (she's looking to submit to magazines) but I may show you one or two teaser pics in the coming weeks! Here she is below during the photo shoot, I love how my painting looks in the background, so colorful!
Then we had some delicious cupcakes from Sprinkles! My favorite.

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend!

ReplyDeleteDANIELLE L: thanks! yes that's the IKEA piece we had at the other house...we had to saw the wood in half in order to get it into this apartment..crazy, but it worked. Yes,it was glued just a bit, the key was to not glue it too much & very careful knife work to pry it off.

ReplyDeleteThe Met is my favorite museum in the US. I can wander for hours just like I can at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous spot, gorgeous interior! Love the NYC life :) I miss it!
ReplyDeleteI cant wait to see your new apartment Jen! I love Sprinkles cupcakes. I wish they had a location closer to me.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea there was a Sprinkles in NY. I thought we were spoiled here in Los Angeles!
ReplyDeleteLove I Am Second, too.
