Chic Peek with Carrie Henderson
I am so excited to bring you all another great home tour. This time, we have a Chic Peek into the home of Carrie Henderson. Carrie was not only the designer of this home, but impressively the builder as well. With four children, she skillfully thought of a functional and sophisticated layout that would work for her darling young family. I listened and looked in awe as Carrie explained how she built furniture, painted artwork, and more. I was truly inspired touring this home, and hope you will be too!
Fall Feels
We are in the swing of fall and I wanted to share some things I am currently eyeing for the new season. Stay tuned for a new home tour posted here this Friday!
Beyond the Curb with Jena Salmon
I am absolutely delighted to bring you another Beyond the Curb home tour with interior designer Jena Salmon. After recently relocating from Atlanta to Dallas, Jena designed her beautiful home layered in pretty patterns, stunning antiques, and a sophisticated warmth that makes you feel right at home. Without doing anything structural to the home, Jena was still able to make each room a true jewel box of style. A testament to her storied design career.

A perfect transitional mix to take you from summer into fall with home decor, fashion, and accessories.
Beyond the Curb with Libby’s Movie Hunt
Some homes stand a part with their presence. They hold great stature, elegance, and grandeur. My friend Libby’s home is surely one of those outstanding estates to remember. Originally built by the former Governor Clements of Texas, this home feels grand but cozy. It is full of beautiful collections displayed in clever ways, as well as lushly layered pattern and design.
PAINT
The most frequently asked question at The Potted Boxwood is:
“What is the paint color?”
I understand why. Finding the right paint color is tricky, and so often it doesn’t turn out the way people envision.Pictures are brightened and edited, plus online doesn’t translate to real life in more ways than one.
Beyond the Curb with Tori Rubinson
Almost two years ago I was in Fort Worth, Texas and spotted the most beautiful new construction I have seen in years. Fast forward an instagram post later, and interior designer Tori Rubinson was so gracious as to show me inside her gorgeous new home that she designed for her young family.
Beyond the Curb Beach House with Allyson Runnels
Visiting the beach on 30A in the panhandle of Florida is always a treat, especially when we get another fabulous home tour from designer Allyson Runnels.

While the focus of the home is the direct access beach views, the interiors are fresh, comfortable, perfectly textured.
