Jungalow™ Wrapping Paper is Here!
Growing up my parents ran a residential treatment program for abused and neglected girls.

Small Space Movie Night
We love our little jewel-box of a home. It has plenty of little nooks, shelves and cozy corners for us to fill with treasures and lots of plants, but the size does come with certain challenges. We never wanted a TV to be the focal point of any room, but on occasion, I certainly enjoy…

Backyard Shindig With Santa Margherita Wines (and a contest!)
You may remember last year’s collab with Santa Margherita Wines — one of my very favorite brands of vino.

Jungalow Eats: Cooking Up Trouble
Summer is here and with it comes camping, picnics, barbeques, and dining alfresco with the ladies, as well as ripe berries and stone fruit so juicy they drip down your chin.

Inspiration can truly come from anywhere, in this case, it came from Team Jungalow lunch cooked up by Bethany — a delicious salad medley served on some of our fun Moroccan dishware that I scooped up at the Hotel Figueroa liquidation sale last year.

Fractals and Farmers Markets: Romanesco Soup and toast recipe
It’s no secret that we love succulents and one of the quirky things we love about them are their often hypnotizing fractal patterns.

Today we had a our first all-hands-on-deck creative meeting of the year: catching up with everyone post-holiday, introducing a new Jungalista to the team and brainstorming ideas for 2017.
