Today, I'm excited to introduce "Ask Abbey," a new perk for paid subscribers.
Design Detective 🔎 : Let me use my somewhat obsessive design-hunting skills for you (trust me, there are a lot of tabs open at any one time).
Perhaps you're searching for:
That perfect lamp to transform a shadowy corner into your new favorite reading spot
Storage solutions that feel like they were always meant to be there
Vintage pieces that carry stories in their patina
Creative ways to reimagine a space that's not quite singing yet
Sunday Newsletter Topics 📮 What corners of design history make you curious? Share what you'd love to discover:
Practical how-tos (from my adventures in bulb-forcing to the art of making do with what you've got for now)
Deep dives into design periods or objects (warning: I can get delightfully nerdy about this)
The real-life intersection of parenting and design
Books that have shaped my understanding of space and home
Historical journeys into the objects and traditions that define us
I am not an interior designer! I am just good at sourcing!
I can't promise to find every requested piece or explore every fascinating topic suggested, but each question gets my full attention and consideration. While I can't respond to every inquiry personally, I will do my best to respond when I do have a great trick, source, or solution for you.
Remember: There are no "silly" questions. The queries that start with "I know this might sound odd, but..." often lead to the most fascinating discoveries.
