In addition to craft cocktail recipes, I post the occasional note on behind-the-scenes shenanigans (like the time I tried fat-washing bourbon... that didn't end well), whiskey reviews (my review of Old Fourth Bottled-in-Bond gets a lot of traffic!), and whatever happens to be on my mind at the moment (hint: it's usually about bourbon...)

Made for those who want to dive deeper in their travels, my newsletter shares travel stories and inspirations, along with insider tips on destinations, and hidden gems. As a native Italian living in Spain, I share all about these two countries in depth - along with the new destinations I travel to. Here I also share exclusive discounts to my guides, and first access to group trip and product launches.

TRASHY RHINESTONES explores the lost history of pop culture's guilty pleasures. The new weekly newsletter and visual archive blog is launching this summer.

I'm Laurel Bern, an interior designer, since 1988 who morphed into a full-time interior design blogger in 2015. I realized years ago, with all of the changes constantly happening on the internet, that my best social media was on my own blog, my digital salon, I've called The Laurel Home Blog since April 2012. I publish two blog posts every week on a wide range of topics, sharing everything I know about interior design, my likes, dislikes, and philosophy about design, as well. My readers and I have a lot of fun, and they teach me a lot too. I'd love it if you'd come and join us by subscribing to the blog. Please check out the resources I offer below and sign up for my blog post announcements! (and sometimes a bit of news.)
