Its Jessica Burne here.  I’ m so excited to be part of the Nest Studio team.  In the spirt of the New Year, I thought it would be fun to show you my “new” DIY kitchen.  When we first moved into our house ten years ago we immediately updated the appliances and countertops, but there just wasn’t room in our budget for new cabinetry. So we were stuck with 80’s golden (technically orange) oak cabinets... Read more

Hi Everyone. A bit late, I know, but wanted to share with you our hardware featured on super star fashion blogger Chriselle's blog.  LA Closet Design CEO Lisa Adams worked with Chriselle to do a revamp of her closet this past fall. They used our Facet 02 knob in satin brasson her clear drawer fronts. I'm sure all of you are drooling over this closet as I am. I think I'm going to have commandeer... Read more

Back at the beginning of the year (well, actually, a couple months into the year) I posted about my business new years resolutions. The primary resolution I had was to delegate. With a baby on the way and an expanding business I knew there was no way for me to continue going it alone while keeping my head above water. At the time of writing the post I had just hired a contract employee to help me... Read more

I promise to show you guys some new hardware concepts soon - just trying to get prototyping done and not reveal so much that someone comes an rips me off before I can get things in production.  In the meantime though, inspiration abounds and I can come up with designs faster than I can get anything prototyped.  So here are some things that have caught my eye lately: A - This Ralph Pucci...

A while back local Summit, NJ interior designer Valerie Grant purchased some of my hardware for her own home.  The house itself is stunning with views of the city and was recently featured in the Summit tour of homes. Valerie had me over the day before the tour to see the hardware installed and take a few shots of it in place.  Here is our T-02 knobin satin brass installed on a vintage hutch in... Read more

A while back I posted about my New Years Resolutions for 2014most of which stemmed around work/life balance. Well, I know it's already April but I figured I'd share some of my business goals with you guys as well. I'd actually thought through most of these early in the year before I ever started putting my personal goals together. Although honestly when you run your own business and work from home...

Last month I shared a series of hardware inspiration photoswith you. Recently I've been working with a metal worker to develop some more organic and sculptural pieces to introduce into the line. The rest of my line is so geometric and architectural that I thought it would be fun to do something different. It's been hard to step out of my box though since I want whatever it is to tie into my... Read more

Recently I received a few photos of my hardware installed. It's so fun to see how people are using the hardware.  Designer Lisa Vannucci installed the F-01 faceted pull and C-02 Classic pull in a kitchen in Carmel. I love the gold with the green tile backsplash and crisp white cabinets.  Sue Reardon purchased the F-02 faceted knob for an armoir revamp. I love that she used the knob with an antique... Read more

One of my goals in the new year is to keep my designblog a little more active. 2013 was a year of growth for me and my hardware line and there just wasn't much time to devote to blogging. I'm hoping this year with the help of regular guest posts, some graphics folks coming to the rescue and better time management (nothing says time management like having another baby right?) that I can be a little...

Last week I showed you a beautiful bar that Dalliance Design used my hardware on.  Well, this week Sally Homan of Robertson-Lindsay Interiors in the UK sent me some photos of my F-01 pull used on a beautiful antique-mirrored wardrobe.  Thank you Sally!  Not only does the wardrobe look amazing but I love how serene and refined the whole room is. photography by www.interiorsphotographyscotland.co.uk Read more
