Last year I hopped on board with Lamps Plus and joined the retail chain’s ever-growing family of designers, influencers, and stores as an ambassador. Having been a patron of the company both for myself and for my design clients for over 20 years, it was the perfect fit. And today, Lamps Plus just announced their new batch of influencers and I’m so excited to join this great group of gals!
What does it mean to be a Lamps Plus Ambassador?
Lamps Plus selected the five new brand ambassadors to represent customer tastes through the breadth of its stylistic offerings, including luxe, contemporary/modern and rustic farmhouse. They will make product recommendations and share design tips. In addition to contributing to online, social and catalog initiatives, they will promote the company on their own social media channels and as part of content such as show house, video and interior design project presentations.

Renovation Inspiration
The latest video project I’m working on with Lamps Plus is a rather vulnerable one– my husband and I embarked on a renovation adventure on Renovation Inspiration, where we’re completelly gut renovating a single family home in Marina Del Rey and transforming it into three separate units to rent out on Air Bnb. The project comes with some crazy challenges (it’s always tougher when it’s your own time and money!) and we’re dishing it all on Renovation Inspiration. Catch up on the show here:
