It's been a doozy of a week, right!?! Let's take a minute to dial it back and savor something small.....to the HOME, where it's up to us to inspire and cultivate within our own family walls. Castle, condo, teepee, or tract home, they're really all the same. Home is where you plant your roots! We're on a constant quest to find what makes your home uniquely YOU. This week, we revisit Sarah Perez of Electric Sun Creatives handmade wall-hangings and little Harper in their charming Sacramento loft. She creates a lovely mix of a rural-style interior within the modern work/live space...click for the tour!
Read MoreHere at PS, there's really nothing that tickles our fancy more than the charm of a creative, humble abode. This week, we meet California designer and stylist, Kaila and her new little Sloane in the Elmhurst neighborhood of Sacramento. A recent Petaluma-transplant, Kaila brings a kind of cool coastal minimalism to the house. There's a quiet loveliness in the moments of pause and simple decor, and our hearts swell with her little Waldorf nursery. Instagram and this ever-ebbing circle of community and motherhood brought us together and birthed a new friendship. Beth herself snapped photos on an afternoon visit. Click to take a look around her carefully collected, sweet home.
Read MoreWe're saying farewell to Summer and finally ready to face new routines over here. We can't wait to share all our new friends and neighbors with you. This week, we visit marketing maven, Sarah Barkawi of Honey Agency and her curly-topped tot, Zain Oliver in Midtown Sac's Poverty Ridge (a stones-throw from Racks Vintage). Scarlet-lipped and bubbly, Sarah opened up the doors of her sweet California bungalow to Celisse Muller's lens, introducing us to her vast collection of local-art, pieces of her Palestinian heritage, and impressive succulent compilation while her darling little guy entertained us on the porch. Click for more of the curated home chalk-full of stylish finds and family love.
Read MoreWe're revisiting the Sacramento studio of our friend and surface designer Sarah Golden,of Maker Maker.

Read MoreWe're spending some time on the subject of sisterhood here at PS. This week, we jumped over to the adorable Sacramento craftsman that belongs to Olga and her family and spent a little time with her two girls. Click for the sweet tour as we poke around her home and ask about shared spaces and keeping harmony. Welcome to the #Boburbswest, as photographed by guest-photgrapher, Megan Rolleri.
Read MoreThis woman is everything. It's of the highest delights to be able to step inside her California Victorian flat and feel the poetic and cozy space she has created for herself and Edie. Through thick and thin, Beth illuminates. She is a beacon of curiosity and gratitude (she has been since we met at age 10). Her home resonates this thoughtful, loving luminosity of hers- we'd do just about anything to be there with them right now in the #boburbswest! Click for the tour as shot by Marrisa Rocke.....come on in to the world of Nouveau Nonchalance!
Read MoreWe met Adrienne at our own Beth's shibori workshop - she was wearing a vintage kimono we couldn't ignore. She's a woman's woman- a mamma hen to her college-aged son with a strong sense of self. We loved hearing the muse-y maven talk with us about Motherhood and her uncompromised sense of style. Check out her groovy, historic bungalow in the tree-lined neighborhood of Curtis Park in Sacramento, as shot by Celisse Muller. Imagine Leonard Cohen playing in the background on vinyl.... click for the tour.
Read MoreIt's no surprise California boasts a ripe crop of mid-century modern architecture, but discovering these gems outside of the southern coastal and desert cities is particularly exciting. Our new friend, Elizabeth (who by chance is also close with some of our other pals here), is lucky enough to actually inhabit one in Sacramento. Celisse Muller photographs her streamlined space; one of the niche market homes in the surrounding suburbs of midtown designed by the architect Carter Sparks, and built by the Streng Bros, inspired by the Bay Area Eichler.

Her irresistible bursts of magnetic energy transfer straight through to the kinetic wall hangings she creates under her label, Electric Sun Creatives.

Read MoreThis clever and crafty mama, Sacramento-based Sarah Golden (such fitting name, no?) of Maker Maker creates gorgeous block-prints and cheerful textiles -note her handpainted fabrics, GAH! We just die over them! It was only natural for her to start collaging some of her pieces into one framable work of art! These guys would be the perfect statement nursery decor or baby shower gift for the choosy mom. Click for more of her pop- art prints.
