Slow Style Home: Decorating Personal, Meaningful Interiors
You want a home that’s uniquely you. One that reflects your passions, values and lifestyle. And you want to create one on your own, without having to hire a designer, breaking the bank, or hurting the planet. The challenge is that there are too many voices telling you what trend to jump on, what rules you must follow, and what “beautiful” looks like. Plus, you don’t want to scrap everything you own and start all over. It’s hard to know how to wrap your arms around this big, important concept called “home!” On this podcast, you’ll learn from the experts exactly why some rooms work (and others don’t), how to master a mix of styles and preferences when you have a bunch of them jumbled together, and inspiration for being brave and taking the creation of your dream home into your own hands.

Building a Design Empire with Annie Selke
I am delighted to introduce you to the woman behind the rug and and linen brands Dash & Albert and Pinecone Hill. Annie Selke is a true powerhouse of an entrepreneur and she’s also a lovely human being. I remember when I first first encountered her Dash & Albert rugs, years ago, when I was poking around in specialty home decor shops in Maine. I thought to myself, wow, those are not fun and colorful, I’ll be they will also stand the test of time. And I was right! Annie’s aesthetic is classic and timeless and elegant, but it’s also really, really fun. Fast forward to this interview and my visit to meet her and her staff at her headquarters in Lenox, MA. Her staff, by the way, love her, which says a lot about any business owner. We met in her office and toured her warehouses and I also got to stay in her beautiful inn, decked out with all of her fabrics.
