Nearly everything in Sarah and Brian's house – from the credenza they found on the side of the road right down to their three cuddly shelter pets – has been rescued or re-purposed. In many ways, the house itself was a rescue story: Sarah grew up two houses away, and when the house went on the market, they snatched it up despite the fact that it was, to put it mildly, in less than peak condition. The first night in the house, they tore down a wall, and since then, they've poured countless hours and lots of love into fixing up their home.

Jennifer is one lucky girl! Many times I drive up and down the streets of Miracle Mile admiring all the old Spanish apartments and duplexes. When I got a chance to peek inside Jennifer's home, it did not disappoint. There are lots of beautiful architectural details, a vintage tiled bath, and even a wood burning fireplace (which believe it or not actually gets used, even during LA winters).

Though Patrón Tequila surely brings to mind "craft" cocktails, we don't usually associate the ultra-premium spirit with actual "crafts". But Patrón is mixing it up with the Art of Patrón Contest, in which imaginative Patrón fans (such as yourselves) can enter to win $10,000 for creating the greatest piece of art using, or inspired by, the iconic Patrón Tequila bottle. To join the fun, head over to The Patrón Social Club to sign up and submit your artwork.

Whether it's a courtly foyer to welcome guests or a relaxed mudroom for the kids to unload their bags and shoes after school, your home's entryway is a place for first impressions, hospitality, and utility. Make sure it's well-equipped for all three, and integrate style along the way, with pieces from the Threshold Collection at Target.
