UPDATE : ALL items have SOLD

I'm bringing in some new chairs + artwork - so I'm offering these items up for SALE. Please email me if you're interested or with questions - prices are below. As for the chairs, they were bought at Ballard Designs - and are in good condition. They do show some wear, but not that visible. The seat covers have zippers - so they can be washed. However, it would be best to have the covers replaced, which is relatively inexpensive. 

This photo was featured in an issue of Style at Home amagazine!

They're very dark brown (not black) - They do have a slight shine, but are not super shiny. Bought them for over $200 each.  Selling for $90 each. Minor wear. Can be used as dining chairs! Only NYC local pickup please - cannot ship these.

Large Art: 
Gold frame + art canvas paper print 
Measures 42"x41"

I was so honored to be part of the Anti-Defamation League's PREMIER ART EXHIBITION event this year! I painted the piece especially for this event - themed 'A World Without Hate' - the painting was auctioned off to a lucky bidder (don't know who won yet).  

The piece got a lot of great compliments - so I was truly grateful! My ART along with the others will be available to view for the next 3 days June 6th-9th at the Benrimon Gallery here in NYC! Exciting! 

All the artists involved :

Can you spot my husband below?

Sometimes I think about what it would be like to decorate a nursery & what kinds of art & decor I would add into the space. 

I ask myself things like would the art pieces be educational or purely aesthetically pleasing to the eye? Would I paint the walls or add wallpaper? Would I fill the room with unnecessary toys? (hope not)
With that said, I wanted to share this gorgeous nursery for all you moms-to-be so that you would gain some inspiration if you're stuck on what to add into the space! This space was designed by Nest Design Studio using one of my Gold Love prints - which looks fab, don't you think? Belinda of Nest Design in Australia, put it all together for her client's baby!

Hi everyone! Jocelyn here bringing you another outfit inspired by a beautiful room featuring Jen's artwork. Today's lovely room was featured in Matchbook Magazine a few months ago and belongs to Caitlin Wilson. It's such a fun eclectic wall with feminine appeal that I was immediately drawn to it!

That wall color works just as perfect as the backdrop for the picture frames in the room as it does as a pair of colored denim pants for the outfit. I'd say I hit the lotto with that ampersand sweater find. It is such a good representation of that amazing graphic. 

A few bright bangles and gold and white accents pulls the overall look together. Thanks for the inspiration Caitlin!

I bet this would make a fantastic Holiday party outfit as well! Don't you think?

Good morning everyone! I'm Katie from H2 Design.  I am thrilled to be one of the new decor contributors over here at the MadeByGirl blog. 


What you will find about me, is that when it comes to interiors, I am a huge fan of mixing it up! No matching furniture sets, please! So, let's put this idea to work! And what better way to start than by styling a room around one of Jen's smaller paintings available through Cocoa and Hearts, right? 

I have always loved the palettes Jen creates, not to mention her skills at creating a stylish vignette! Honestly, the hardest part was choosing a favorite! But after a bit of deliberating, I chose Colors 189, featuring a bright fuchsia, royal blue, sandy buff, creamy white, and golden yellow.

Now on to the decorating...

1 / Let's start with a little bling.

2 / Add some timeless comfort and a large dosage of color.

pillows (from left to right) via AriannaBell, Zinc Door, Anthropologie, MarthaAndAsh, AriannaBell

3 / Of course, every room needs an iconic modern splash.

4 / A comfy spot to get a little work done (or just to catch up on some online design blogs!).

Raymond Desk via Jayson Home
Claude Dining Chair via Jonathan Adler

5 / A little something to warm your feet.
Agadir Twists Rug via Anthropologie

6 / And last, but certainly not least, we all need a bit of vintage charm.

Wasn't that easy! Until next time everyone... Happy decorating!

Hello Monday morning! I happen to adore Interior Design. Even though I'm no designer, I think I can hold my own. If money math weren't a requirement, I probably would've become an Interior designer. It's true, I suck at Math. These days, I'd rather just look at Interior Design online & in mags.

In fact, that's how I learned all about Jordan Carlyle's work for the first time. He emailed me introducing himself. Where had I been that I hadn't seen this amazing designer??  + he's handsome!

Enough about his looks, we know he doesn't really need them because his work speaks for itself. Ok, maybe looks help a bit, but just look at the pictures below. The first few photos are of his pad in NYC - from his choice of art, to the black bookshelf to that black & white sofa (which is part of his furniture collection fyi) - I love it all!

I'm not sure how much the sofa is his collection goes for, but if one day I'm able to splurge - something similar is what I'd want for my next sofa. Amazing.

I wonder if that's the Jonathan Adler wallpaper in his office below??

Jordan's Interior work can be seen in all the photos below - every space seems to be carefully crafted and though out. He's definitely a designer to watch out for - if you haven't heard of him yet. 

Jordan also has a collection of Fine Art, of which these two are some of my favorites!You may recognize the George Washington one if you've shopped at CB2.
