Hi there, my name is Corinne Bielock.
I'm the owner of Palm Beach Regency,
a vintage furniture business
here in West Palm Beach.
So we are sitting in the entryway
of our home here in El Cid
in West Palm Beach.
El Cid is a historic neighborhood
very close to downtown West Palm Beach.
And we live in a 1920s style
Mediterranean home.
It's very well known
throughout the neighborhood
that the homes were built in the 1920s
and many of them are in this style.
The thing that's really fun about our home
is that it's historically marked as 1924,
but actually we did a little research
with the city and the first structure
was built here in 1905.
So there's a possibility
it's one of the oldest houses in El Cid.
So I can tell you a little bit
about how we stumbled across this house.
A very dear friend of mine
lived two doors down.
We're on Dyer Road.
And I was at a tennis lesson
and I get a text when I get out
and she's like,
there's a home for sale on my street.
I immediately left the tennis lesson
and drove by
and saw that there was an open house sign up,
which I thought was perfect.
So I walk right into the open house
and funny enough,
it was an open house for realtors
because this is the first home
we've ever purchased.
So I had no idea how it worked,
but I immediately walked in
and could see the flow of the place,
could see how we could make it our own.
And so it was a really exciting find
that day to be sure.
My immediate reaction was,
oh my gosh,
there's so much light
and so many windows.
So my biggest fear
about having an old home
is that the windows
would have to be redone completely.
But we got so lucky
that the windows are all original
to the home
and in fact,
had even better hurricane glass
already put in.
So the light was a big draw for me
and then the other thing
which isn't a draw for everyone
but is a major draw
for my husband and I
is that they're really well-defined rooms.
So our home isn't open concept.
It creates cozy nooks for spaces,
which I guess I've always been drawn to.
So those were the two things
that really,
really intrigued me about the home.
My husband and I
own Palm Beach Regency,
which is a vintage furniture business
down here in West Palm Beach.
And we purchased the business
three years ago.
So prior to that,
we had lived in a rental
on Palm Beach Island
and then purchased
this as our first home.
So in furnishing our rental
and then this house,
we,
I shopped at Palm Beach Regency
all the time
and really fell in love
with the rattan
and the islandy style
of that decor.
And so that really
started to inform,
you know,
how I wanted my,
you know,
forever home to be.
So Palm Beach Regency
had a big,
a big play in that.
And then now as owners,
it's pretty fascinating
because when I find
something I love,
it's really hard
because I do need to sell it.
But at the same time,
I try to bring home a treasure
like once or twice a year
that's really going to be
a forever piece in my home.
So we are in the entry living room
of our home at 320 Dyer.
And the thing that's interesting
about Florida entryways
is that you really come
right off the door
into the space.
So there's no coat rack.
There's no place for storage.
This is just where
you come right in.
So decorating it
was actually kind of a challenge.
This room is really,
to me,
has some of the most vintage
throughout the home
from the storage piece
where I keep our party gear.
This is like all
the July 4th stuff,
birthday stuff,
all that weird stuff you collect.
To the central table,
that's a really fun
return piece from Palm Beach Regency.
I'm not a particularly
like clutter-heavy person.
But when I find something I love,
it always has a home.
So this is the OCD part
where the pink bird
faces the doorway at all times.
I know,
I'm a weirdo.
So this is an adorable bird.
Surprisingly,
he's not vintage.
He is from another local dealer
that does imports
down here in Florida.
But I just fell in love with it.
I am overly sensitive
to the fact that
I can't have this home
be all pink and green.
Because I would if I could.
But my husband lives here too.
So within every space,
I try to incorporate
something that he loves
or something that I know
is like within his comfort zone.
So obviously,
Bruce Springsteen, books.
And he's a big reader,
as am I.
So our home is sprinkled with books,
which you'll see throughout.
But a lot of these
are really meaningful
to him or to the both of us.
And then I'd like to share
that this is a faux orchid
from Palm Bungalow in West Palm.
You would never know.
I am busy,
so I have no shame.
It's the best fake
that I could find.
It's incredible.
I probably struggled
with the layout in this room
more than anything
because I'm all about like
usefulness within a room.
And sometimes this room
is just meant to be pretty.
So we have a bit of a
seating area over here,
which also is heavily featured
with Palm Beach Regency
vintage pieces.
If I have a girlfriend over,
maybe we'll have a cocktail here,
especially in the summer in Florida
when it can be super duper hot.
It's sometimes nice
to be able to like
have a cocktail inside.
I know that sounds crazy,
but it is so hot.
This little jail cell
that we have created here.
No, just kidding.
This is super old.
I have no idea
who or what this is about,
but we had to keep it
because weird details.
I'm all about it.
When I grew up,
we had a willow tree in our yard.
And so when I found this
on Stray Dog Designs,
I absolutely fell in love.
The green was the perfect shade of green.
And it was called
the Willow Tree Chandelier
or something like that.
So it just really evoked
so many like happy childhood memories.
I love this piece
and it just sets the tone
for the entire room.
This is what I would call
the COVID Shave.
So during COVID,
I was lounging quite a bit
because I couldn't work
and I had a lot of free time.
So this got a lot of use
during that time.
I hope one day again
to be lounging here
as much as possible.
So I did a collection of,
of course, pink and green
because that's the overall
sort of color theme for this room.
But it was truly inspired
by this textile
that I found in Chichicastenego
in Guatemala
that I literally got
chased down the street for
because I love
like crazy shopping experiences.
But it really set the tone
and so I tried to pull
some of these colors.
You know, some of these
are like Serena and Lily pillows.
This one's from Mexico.
This one was God knows where,
how old it is.
And you know,
I really ground everything.
You know, my textiles
in my budget
are somewhat, you know, normal.
So I use a Sunbrella fabric
sometimes just to like
make it all come together
and you'll see a lot of stripes
throughout the house.
So that's kind of
where that comes from.
I love traveling in Guatemala.
It's an incredible place.
One of my favorite cities.
I'm hoping to go back there
in September.
But my girlfriend and I
went out to Chichicastenego,
which is this incredible market.
And it's not in a major city.
It's kind of like a three-hour drive
from a major city in Guatemala.
And we immediately get out
and we're just going nuts.
I mean, the textiles,
the colors, the everything.
Well, me being sort of responsible,
I saw this piece
and was passing on it.
Not because I wasn't going to come back,
but literally I was just like,
well, we just got here.
Like, is it the first thing I buy?
You know, I just was,
sometimes I get a little cautious on that.
But this woman was convinced
that this was for me
and literally followed us
throughout the market.
So after like 10 minutes
of her following us
and she was being adorable and sweet
and we were laughing
through the whole thing.
But the funny thing is
literally 10 minutes is all it took.
I was like, give it to me.
It's mine.
And literally it's
one of my favorite things in my home,
along with some other pillows
that she chased me down for.
But those are the kind of adventures
that I love to have.
And they always create the best pieces
in your home.
I would say that
the biggest inspiration for me
over the last 15 years
has definitely been travel.
We started traveling
when we lived in New York City
to the Caribbean.
And that was an immediate
sort of, you know,
let's just get out of the city.
Let's get somewhere
warm and beautiful.
But I was really fortunate
over the last 10 years
to travel quite extensively,
you know, through Morocco, Europe
and also through Central
and South America
and Mexico as well.
So those places
have really informed
a lot of my inspiration
into my own home.
Everything from the colors
and textiles
to collecting individual
like handmade pieces.
That's all a huge part
of the stuff I love in homes,
things that you can't find
anywhere else.
And so it's really interesting now
to do that with actual vintage
found in South Florida
because I have a love for things
that are just unique
and one of a kind.
So when I find it,
I want other people
to have that in their homes as well,
just to give every home
like a sense of
it's not like anyone else's.
You would never see this
anywhere else.
That's always my goal
when I'm trying to like
decide how to, you know,
finish off a room.
So now I want to take you
into the office in the house.
Prior to us buying Palm Beach Regency,
this was actually my office.
I used it when I had
a home organization business.
So the decor color scheme
was just a little bit different.
So now that I spend
all my time working
at Palm Beach Regency
in the warehouse of the showroom,
I transitioned it
to my husband's office.
So I made the colors
just a smidge more masculine.
I went with blues
because they work well
with the other colors
we have in the home.
So nothing too wild or crazy.
But I love this space.
The first most
remarkable thing about it,
maybe one of the things
that drew me to the home
were the original
Cuban tile floors.
So we didn't touch these guys.
We left all the original
spots and patina
and everything
that makes it charming.
I don't even know the last time
they've been swept, to be honest.
So it's really natural in here.
Otherwise, really just went with
something that would keep
the light in the room.
So I didn't want to focus
on anything covering the windows.
We're really okay.
If you want to peek in my home
and see me working at my desk,
go ahead.
It's really fascinating.
So we kept the light
flowing into this space really well.
As a former organizer,
I am a bit about
like a clean desk policy.
I know.
So the glass desk
I think was from Wisteria.
It's super heavy,
but it is the kind of piece
that lets the floor shine.
And then obviously, storage.
Not that that's sexy,
but I mean, you've got to have
practical storage in an office.
So this is a photo
of two little babies, actually.
My husband and I,
this was, I think, taken...
We met in 2004
and we got married in 2010.
And this photo is,
I think, from like 2005.
So it was one of the original
like your best friend's wedding photos.
And I love it.
And it reminds me of how young
I used to look.
And he used to look.
And so we've been married since 2010.
And he works with me
full time in the business.
He does some consulting stuff,
but he primarily works
with me in the business.
And it's amazing.
I mean, it's hard, but it's amazing.
One thing you'll see in this office
is the first of many,
which is I travel to Morocco
and I can't not buy poofs.
Somebody can tell me
that poofs are like overdone.
I still keep finding a way
to work them into every room in my home.
And so this is what I would call
like the masculine poof
for my husband's office.
So that was like a good compromise.
So that's a fun detail there.
And then the other thing
I love in this room is this chair,
which we got when we moved
for the first time out of New York City.
It was our first like big purchase.
I mean, I think it's from,
again, I think it was Wisteria that made it.
But it's just a beautiful
modernist style chair
that like who knew
it would work so perfectly in Florida
all these years later
and sort of become a piece
that I'm just so fond of
and reminds me of those
like first purchases for sure.
In those travels to Chichicastenego,
one of the things they do
in that portion of Guatemala
in areas of Guatemala
are these amazing bird embroidery pieces.
So this piece was originally
in my office as well.
I fell in love with
like the black and white split
on the textile.
And then funny enough,
when we transitioned this
to be DJ's office,
it just perfectly worked.
So,you know,
other than switching out
like a pillow here
or,you know, some storage bins,
it's just like the space
all tied together so easily.
When we started furnishing this home
and any, you know,
our homes that are
rental on the island
and everything else,
I will find Rattan
wherever I can find it.
This is a Serena Lily light fixture.
We actually even had this
in our first house
the time we moved out of New York City
many, many years ago.
And so it has been now
through three homes with us.
And I just love it.
The simple arch of it
really mimics the arches
that are shown
kind of throughout the house.
And it doesn't distract again
from the most important piece
in the house, which is the,
you know, the Cuban tile floors
in the space.
So now we're gonna walk
into our dining room,
which is just off the office.
This is probably
the most commented on piece
in our home,
which is the ping-pong
dining room table.
I saw this in Coastal Living
before we even bought the house.
And a designer
out of the panhandle of Florida
had done it for a custom piece
for a Coastal Living home.
Her name is Erica Powell.
And I was obsessed
with it and had no idea
if we even had a dining room
that would ever fit it,
but it was like the first thing
that I needed to get
as soon as we found a home.
Luckily enough, I got it.
I secured it.
I fell in love
with the seafoam color.
I picked the chartreuse color base,
which I'm still obsessed with
generally as a color.
And it is amazing.
The thing I love about it
is it seats eight.
So when we're ready to entertain,
we literally just pull up
these vintage Brighton chairs
to the ends.
We've got our paddles here.
We pull up these
to the ends of the table.
It seats eight.
And when we're not using it,
I use it as a display
for like a beautiful page
of an open book, for example.
This poolside with Slim Aaron
just always gets me
in a vintage mood.
But I just walk past
and find a new page.
And this one's speaking to me today.
My friend is a florist.
I don't always have
these beautiful flowers here.
I would like to say
maybe I'll have like an orchid
from the grocery store.
But today I've got
these beautiful blooms
that she made for me
when she was in town.
This is an adorable
little pineapple,
like,I don't know,
cookie jar or something.
That's what we keep
the ping pong balls in.
And then, of course,
our paddles are on a
Shellegance dish,
which could also be put here.
I might need to invest
in some different paddles
because the last time
my husband and his buddy
were playing,
there was a bit more scraping
than I'm comfortable with
and some little blue lines
were left on the table.
So, you know, I would say this.
It's for some light ping pong.
We're not looking to scratch
anybody's dining table.
I love it too much.
But it is a fun place to gather,
a fun place to have dinner,
and it's absolutely
a conversation starter.
So that's probably the extent
of the ping pong that gets played.
Another shell.
I feel like the blush color on it,
the yellowing matte.
I just fell in love with this piece.
I bought it at a local
second-hand store
well before I owned
Palm Beach Regency.
And I just love the scale of it.
It brings me joy.
It's airy.
It's light.
So that's my, you know,
definitely set the tone
after the dining table
for this space.
I would describe my style
as fairly laid back.
We are lovers of the Caribbean,
lovers of the islands.
So I think I drew a lot of
inspiration from that over the years.
So I would say laid back,
a little bit coastal,
but a little on the island side
of coastal.
And I think, you know,
the other thing is
it's pretty clean.
I like spaces
not too overly cluttered.
So that's how I would
probably describe it.
I'd love to show you
my butler's pantry
and my kitchen.
So follow me.
So this is obviously
an original detail to the home.
We didn't want to touch it at all,
to be honest.
I fell in love with the old
hardware on the house.
I'm sorry,
on the butler pantry doors.
I fell in love with it.
The old tiny glass.
And, you know,
the only thing that I would say
updated it is that
I really tried to go with
a theme in the color.
So if you look up,
we had the first of many,
not the first,
the third of many,
stripes throughout the home
and a simple sort of modern,
you know,
leather chandelier,
right?
Or light fixture.
So that blue tone
really set the theme for me.
And funny enough,
over the years,
I have collected blues
and tones of blues
in glassware and things.
Really simple.
Nothing fancy.
A lot of it collected
through travels in Marrakesh
and other countries.
Bowls and dishes
and all that stuff.
So I would say
that's what really set
the tone in here.
This vintage glassware
just, like,
sums up the color perfectly.
It's like the color of the ocean.
And so that's kind of
what we wanted to go for in here.
We kept the original
to purchase mahogany
countertops in here.
You'll see in the kitchen
we have very little storage.
But, like,
I have got all the storage
I need down here for pots
and pans and everything.
So, you know,
the kitchen footprint
is small.
But with the butler's pantry,
it's more than enough
for our family
to sort of use and love.
The other thing I would point out
because this is a little nod
to my husband.
So this is the ode to Cleveland.
My husband grew up in Cleveland.
His mother had originally
given him this poster
in motion for the millennium
in 1999.
So now you know how old we are.
And I found this original
photography about Cleveland.
And I just like to bring
his personality into this space
as much as possible.
So moving from my little nook
into our kitchen.
So the kitchen was
kind of interesting.
When we purchased it,
I didn't love what was going on here.
But I also knew that
I didn't have much budget
to change any footprint of it.
So I was like,
how do we make this work?
So the main thing is
we kept the original
mahogany countertops.
So to me,
in this kitchen,
I feel like I am in
a Caribbean home kitchen, right?
So it's got
mahogany countertops,
crisp white walls,
things that speak to like
a Caribbean vibe to me.
And so I really embraced that
in the color theme as well.
So I went with yellow and green,
which is like always
one of my favorite color combination.
So I'm shocked.
I of course found a place,
a way to work that
into the home overall.
A friend of mine
who's a local potter,
her business is called
Avenue Pottery.
She hand did the tile,
the mermaid tile
behind the stove.
So that backsplash
is such a really
special detail for us.
And then I love things
like pineapple baskets,
of which I will pick up
on all of my travels.
So one of my favorite things
about this kitchen
is also the nook.
So there's another nook here,
which is our bar.
So before we were able
to renovate the guest house,
we definitely needed
somewhere to gather with friends
and pour drinks and have fun.
So this was it.
And we had to keep it
because honestly,
again,the summer heat
can be intense.
So a bar inside
is not the worst thing.
Some of my favorite things here
are the art,to be honest.
Meaningful photographs.
This is the location
where we were married
in Anguilla
in the British West Indies.
And then this was the actual...
A friend of mine
had our wedding location sketched.
And you'll see the differences,
but this was pre-hurricane
and this was renovated
for the post-hurricane.
We honeymooned in Mystique,
so that's a wonderful
Slim Aaron photo from Mystique,
which always makes nice memories.
My husband's Irish,
so we have this Irish man here.
And,you know,
overall,collected and loved
and vintage bar books,
all that stuff is
such a fun thing to collect and find.
So I guess I do have
a collection issue
now that I think about it.
So I don't have, like,
one set collection.
I feel like I sell things
when I find them,
so that's a little bit tough
for me to say.
But I will say this.
If you count the number of chairs
in this home,
you will be shocked.
It is so many
for two people who live here.
That's a pretty ridiculous thing.
And then I would say
I'm also drawn to lamps.
I could buy lamps
and switch out lamps
all day long in this home.
The only thing stopping me
is that our lamps sell really fast,
so I don't even get a chance
to bring them home.
For me,
the old vintage unique pieces
give a home soul.
They create a story.
They remind you of
experiences and travel.
They remind you of
your wedding day
or when your children were born
or whatever it is.
And so I think the collections
are the most special thing
about a home.
So before we head upstairs,
you have to see this amazing
shell mirror that I had made.
So a gal that worked for me
that does a ton of custom
shell mirrors
had this made specifically for me.
Of course I said go pink.
I'll always love pink.
I just know that.
And this version of it
is a little bit wild and crazy.
I wanted it to feel like
almost like organically put together.
Not too pretty,
not too perfect.
Kind of just like the home.
I like it to be a little bit
fun and funky.
Welcome to our primary bathroom upstairs.
So this is probably
the other space that made me
fall in love with the home.
It's the original Florida porch
off the house.
So at one point,
this was a fully open structure.
And prior to us moving here,
someone had renovated it
very smartly
into the primary bathroom
off the master bedroom.
I fell in love with this.
The original pecky ceilings
are just stunning.
You know,
these have barely been
wiped of cobwebs.
I mean,
we keep it really natural in here
and I love it.
It has this like island Caribbean
like I come home every day
from Palm Beach Regency
and my feet are aching
and I'm exhausted.
And I hop into this tub
and we got incredibly lucky
on the master bathroom
that we didn't have to do
extreme, extreme stuff, right?
So the tub was actually here
and the shower was here
and the tile works for me.
Maybe it wouldn't have been
like my first choice
in the entire world,
but budget-wise and color-wise,
it reminds me of sand,
which sort of went with
the overall vibe I was hoping for.
And so we ended up keeping it
and the layout was perfect.
We actually did redo
both the his and hers vanities
and had custom vanities
made and put in.
And so that was the biggest upgrade
as well as hardware,
mirror, sinks, faucets,
all that stuff
just to give it
a more modernized look and feel
and to keep it light and airy
just like we were hoping
this bathroom would feel.
So now I'd love to show you
the guest bedroom upstairs.
Follow me.
So welcome to the guest bedroom
in the main house.
This is where
when you come visit me,
you can stay.
This is a really interesting space.
To be completely honest,
it really was at first
a mishmash of all the pieces
after we decorated
that I didn't quite know where to put.
But somehow,
it just like tied all together.
Starting with the light fixture
in this room,
this was one of the first pieces
and it's not vintage.
To be completely honest,
I think it's PB Teen,
something crazy, right?
But this was before I was able
to find vintage versions of this
and I collected it
and it's a precious palm leaf.
The scale of it's always good
for an old home
because it's not too big.
That's sometimes hard
to find in tall chandeliers.
So I love that guy.
So fun.
And then my other favorite thing,
it reminds me of a tennis club
like you just walked
into a tennis club
and you want to put on
tennis lights and play.
Again,
the only thing that has touched
this chair in the last 60 years
is probably my Clorox wipes
because I did not change a thing
about the upholstery.
I kept all the original vinyl on it
and I just love it.
Even like the little details,
the piping in green,
it's just perfect.
So that guy also had to come home
with me immediately
when I walked in the store.
I collected this Italian rattan bench
in one of my early purchases
at Palm Beach Regency
and as much as I love it,
I knew in the primary bedroom
I wanted to go a little more
old Hollywood kind of glam.
So I was like,
how do I work this in somewhere?
It's perfect here
and I love the,
I love this at the footboard.
This is another key
Palm Beach Regency find.
We sell these like all day long
and these are the faux bamboo Thomasville.
I feel like I'm on a commercial
for my store.
I'm not.
But I love this piece.
It's such a great classic faux bamboo
Thomasville chest.
The yellow,the golden color
is what sold me on it for the space.
When I'm doing a room,
shockingly enough,
I like linen,white linen bedding
and I don't know if it's because
I know I want to have fun
with pillows and headboards
and other fabrics that I bring in
and other textiles.
Like this was the sister
to my Chi Chi Castanego find downstairs
and this has always been
on the foot of the guest,
every guest room we've had
and it just sets the color tone
for every space.
Again,the amazing little fun.
Somebody would have walked right past it,
but I fell in love with it rug
from,I believe this one was
from somewhere in Mexico.
I'm blanking all of a sudden.
But anyways,
the colors were perfect.
I use the guest bedroom
to put pieces that otherwise
like just didn't fit somewhere.
So this is a wonderful example
of like,you know,
old photographs in frames
that still have like sentimental value,
but things that are
orange didn't quite fit anywhere else.
But when I tied it
with the Marrakesh flare,
it somehow works along with blue.
So it's just a way,
a room and a space for me
to fully experiment with color.
Whereas in some of the other spaces
I try to like rein myself in.
It's pretty hard,
but I do try.
So when we purchased the house,
we didn't have to touch the main home.
The structure,
you know,was all intact.
We didn't have to take out any walls
or do any major work.
And I love that about the main house.
But the really fun part has been
that we did have a full demo
of the backyard guest house.
And we really created a space
that is just worked so perfectly
for my husband and I.
So we basically created
an outdoor loggia bar.
And we spent a lot of time out there
with friends.
We live in South Florida.
So our friends
from across the country
visit all the time.
And we spend,
you know,
almost 90% of our time out there
hanging out and having fun
and enjoying some cocktails.
And so I would say
that that is definitely
the thing that's most special
and certainly unique to this home.
Welcome to the guest house.
This was a structure
that really was a full gut renovation.
So we're in a historic home.
So we couldn't change
the footprint of the size
of the guest house.
But we had that space to work with.
So we essentially had to
demo it down to the studs.
They even poured new concrete
because we were having some
water drainage issues.
So this really is a truly new structure
for us that we created.
And so the yellow and white
ballard couch
pulls out to a queen bed.
So we can sleep,
you know,
multiple sets of friends here
at the same time,
which is really fun.
So we love to entertain
and have friends in from out of town
for that.
And then moving into this,
we use it in the summer
quite a bit as well.
When it's too hot to sit outside,
just grab a drink at the bar
and come in here.
So that's what we sort of love to do.
I would say that
one of the most unique things,
it's probably not for everyone,
but it's definitely for me
and my husband,
is the photography
on the walls in the guest house.
So I knew that I wanted to go
a little more crisp and clean,
not too overly collected in this space.
I wanted it to feel
very much the style of our home,
but also a little bit like
it was a little vacation for someone,
right?
So a little bit of like
a little hotel vibe,
a funky hotel vibe.
So we picked a really clear color theme,
yellow.
Green here is a neutral
for us in this house.
So yellow is the big color statement,
but I knew I wanted
black and white photography.
So this is Steven Spielberg
in the mouth of Jaws,
which is bizarre,
but I love.
Jaws is one of my favorite movies.
To me,it says summer.
So when I have friends
come from the north to stay,
hopefully they see Jaws
and they just think about
their best summer memory
that they've ever had.
So that's sort of the tie-in.
And then there's a piece of work,
photography in the guest bathroom as well,
that ties the two together.
That's really fun.
We decided to make
one corner of the room
into a banquette.
And we have storage
underneath these seats.
It's amazing.
Again,the stripes throughout.
And this space in particular
has a ton of PBR finds,
mainly because
when we were building it,
we had already become owners
of Palm Beach Regency.
So I was like,
we can't buy anything,
must come from the store.
So everything from
the big round oyster shell mirror
on the wall
to the Cernan table,
which I was lucky enough to find
and went immediately in my car
because I knew I had a spot for it,
to the side tables,
the chairs,
the screen,
which we use here for privacy
when we have guests.
I was nervous about
this space being too dark,
but our trick to it was
to make this a window.
It had to actually be a window
because of our historical regulations.
It had to be a garage door front actually.
So we did a little trick
where we built a garage door front
for inspection.
OK,now I'm telling all the sins.
And we put the window behind it.
So after inspection,
we just had to take down the front
and we had this mirror right here.
So for privacy when guests stay,
we just pull the screen across
and it's like the best thing.
So when I picked the color theme of yellow,
I immediately was like
vintage Smeg fridge is a must.
So luckily they make these new.
It's not vintage.
And it was just
a totally set the tone for the space.
Yellow is one of my favorite colors,
makes me incredibly happy.
So hopefully I'll never get sick of it.
I don't think I will at this point.
And then if you move over here,
these are two of my
truly salvaged PBR finds.
These were a hot mess.
I was able to restore them
into two unique game table chairs
for this vintage style Atari game table,
which was again a pure treat for my husband.
He loves it.
I do not play anything,
maybe occasionally miss Pac-Man terribly.
But he and his friends
and any guests and kids we have come stay with us,
this is like their favorite thing in the whole house.
So it's really fun.
One of the best features that we kind of created
was this flow through doorway.
So it goes straight from the guest,
the guest main guest room to the outside.
So that if you're outside,
you can come through that door.
You don't have to walk through.
So it was kind of like
it's been a really great aspect
of the design that we did.
My favorite tie back though
is the terrified children
running off the beach from the movie Jaws,
which ties to Steven Spielberg in the main room.
The image had the perfect shades
of ocean blue and like this vintage feel.
When I saw it,
I was like this is both terrifying and hilarious.
So it's one of my favorite things.
The other thing that I would say about this space
is that we kept it really simple with the shower,
but the call back to the tile inside of the house,
the kitchen,
my friend handmade
all of that gorgeous green emerald tile,
which I hope one day
will be on the inside of my pool as well.
Fingers crossed.
So that's that.
And I love it in here.
It's a little oasis.
What does home mean to me
is a really tough question.
You know,
my husband and I are in our home a lot now
because of owning Palm Beach Regency.
But we've never been homebodies.
You know,
I was always the person traveling
and having a new experience.
We don't have children.
So we really took advantage of the last 15 years
and have done a ton of that.
So for me,
I would say home is a place that
inspires and remind you of how good your life is.
That's what I'd say.
You know,
when I look around our home,
I see travels,
experiences,
photos of friends and family,
things that are,
one of a kind and unique to our space.
And also,
you know,
home is about being
obviously fully comfortable
and relaxed.
And overall,
our home is definitely that.
So I think that's what home means to me.
So now for our grand finale,
the outdoor loja bar.
I would say that this loja bar
that we had built off the guest house
is the heart and soul of our home
because it's truly where we spend
so much time with friends and family.
So in Palm Beach,
what we call loja
is a structure that's attached to the building
that has open air sides.
So this isn't a awning.
This is actually a structure
that's attached to the guest house.
And if you look up,
we finished the ceiling
with pecky wood cypress,
which is sprinkled throughout the home
from our front door to our living room.
It is an original characteristic of homes
from the 1920s and especially old Florida.
So that was a really fun detail
that we wanted to bring in.
Matching the dark color of the wood
to what you see throughout the home.
My husband and I were sort of convinced
that we wanted a hotel lobby type bar,
not like a traditional sit-up high bar.
So we had a countertop bar
hand poured with pebbles and shells
from concrete.
It has all the peckled top and character
that we really hoped it would.
And so this is really the mainstay of the bar.
And in the front part of the bar,
as you can see,
we had the pecky cypress wood
done all throughout the side of the bar as well,
just to mimic the ceiling
and to give it like a real grounded feel.
The primary exciting piece,
I just save up a lot of birthdays for this one,
is the white gold pebble ice machine.
I know, I know.
I grew up in Texas.
I love ice and pebble ice is like the best ice.
So that was my big, my big splurge.
Let's put it that way.
And obviously we've got the sailfish
and tons of vintage and meaningful art
sprinkled throughout the wall here
from old Slamarans art
to DJ captaining a boat on our honeymoon.
That's a, he's the captain.
And we love rum.
We love the Caribbean.
So we always keep a good stock of our rum here.
So this is when things get really wild.
We bring out the wheels
and lighted karaoke machine.
Sometimes you'll just find me out here singing badly
when I've had a stressful day.
It only takes like one glass of wine
to get me, get me fired up.
Deej is the heart and center.
This is my husband of the loja.
And so when guests come over,
one of our favorite things to do,
he makes rum punch.
And so rum punch is super significant
because when you travel to old hotels in the Caribbean,
they welcome you with a rum punch.
And so since we're trying to sort of create
a hotel vacation vibe in our house,
like 24 seven,
the rum punch is key.
And so cheers.
Thank you for coming into our home
and checking it out.
And hopefully you can stop by
and next time we'll give you a rum punch.
Thanks for watching.
