Let there be light! The wall has come down and the place already feels 100 times better. This is the first (iphone) photo I took after the demo. And it’s getting brighter. I’m giddy to have a new kitchen and a place to sit down to dinner. I promised myself that I’d wait until everything [...]

This is Happening: A Darrough Kitchen Renovation
Yes. I know. I haven’t blogged since December. Let me just say it has been a very blessed 2013. The Darrough kitchen renovation has begun as of last week. Since the Poplin & Queen website isn’t up yet, I thought I would post an obligatory before shot and the plans for after. Sound good? I thought [...]
Give Thanks + Poplin & Queen Updates.
I’m in a bit of a tizzy today … there’s a bourbon pecan pie to be made, and I haven’t even thought of starting. Thank goodness Garden & Gun has a fail-proof recipe. Yesterday the latest issue of Focus on the Coast hit stands with a tablescape set by Poplin & Queen. I don’t have [...]
Step Outside Your Comfort Zone
Let’s call this a teachable moment. I thought I’d share inspiration boards from two very different projects. Coastal interior design is something that comes naturally to me. I grew up in a coastal town and I love a bright preppy color palette. However, I learned something valuable this week: Stepping outside your comfort zone is [...]
Sugar and Spice and All Things Pink
Y’all when I was a child, I begged my mother to paint my bedroom walls pale pink and the wall behind the bookshelves in hot pink. I can still remember pointing to the colors on the paint deck. My sweet mom made it happen, but let’s be honest the pink behind the bookshelves was a little [...]
Dreaming Big, Home in the Hamptons Big
I saw this East Hampton home from Chango & Co about a week ago, and I’ve gone back to look at it dozens of times. Something about it caught my eye: The designer Susana Simonpietri seamlessly weaved rustic and modern elements throughout this historical home. The result is a light airy space with a refreshed feel to [...]
Surprise, We’re Taking You to Charleston!
William Darrough and Grayson Cheek deserve awards today. They surprised Lindsey Cheek with a birthday day trip to Charleston, SC. The four of us are road tripping down there this morning. I’ve never been, but I’m ecstatic about walking the streets and taking in all the history. If you have suggestions on things to do [...]
To Market, To Market – and Back!
Hi y’all! Thanks for all your tweets and likes this week while I was at High Point Market. Here are some of my favorite shots, and you can see the rest of them on pinterest here. Lilly was bright and beautiful as expected. Raise your hand if you want turquoise chairs now. Me! You know [...]
Prescription Lighting
I get fixated on things. Literally, this blog is called, “I Love Your Crazy” because William actually likes to see me obsess over the smallest little details. Lately, I’m all about lighting. I’m just going to brush the surface on this, but brass floor lamps are … dare I say … sexy. Katie Armour‘s former [...]
Spot On.
Maybe it’s because I’m dreaming of an office for Poplin & Queen or maybe it’s that I keep seeing too many beautiful ones, but I can’t stop blogging about office spaces. I decided to recreate this one by Tiffany Richey because it’s positively brilliant. The lighting, the wallpaper, the print … all conducive to creative [...]
