Suggestions for burnout? Drop them below 🥹 (yes Suggestions for burnout? Drop them below 🥹 (yes, I know I’ve been overworking myself, but it’s hard to NOT work when you love what you do) I think I’m also mentally (and emotionally) overwhelmed by some of the recent heirlooms I’ve been working on. And before you ask, the official apartment reveal IS coming 👀 I officially hired a COO for City Chic Decor and Chelsey Brown LLC who will help mitigate, and allow me some time to personally connect with you all like I used to!!

It’s still surreal to me that I am writing not m It’s still surreal to me that I am writing not my first, but SECOND BOOK. Taking a minute to celebrate how far I’ve come with @stagsleapwinery today and every day. To think, three years ago, I was being ✨rejected✨ by sooo many publishers. Today, I am working with the most wonderful publisher who took the leap with me, and we're even starting to think about book #3 👀 Reward your successes with a nice glass of wine at the end of the day, and remember: You’re going to get million no’s before that one yes that will change your life. Basically, take a leap in life and face those rejections like a queen … because there is another side. #TaketheSTAGSLeap #StagsLeapWineryPartner #For21+

As many of you know, genealogy and returning lost heirlooms to families is my soul’s purpose. Lisewise, interior design is still a passion. I wanted this apartment to be a metaphor for my work; Mixing my love of interiors, history, and genealogy. I wanted to parallel the old and antique with modern and evergreen. This time around, I experimented with mixing woods and textures, while still incorporating my love for quirky objects and feature statements. If someone walks into my home and says, “wow, I never thought about doing that before,” then I know I’ve created a home to inspire 🤗

Another day, another ✨spicy✨ heirloom return 🕵🏼‍♀️ And it connects to the… Civil War?! 😱 Artifacts like this are soooo important because they can confirm and connect us to vital moments in history.

I’m moving soon and it feels bittersweet. So man I’m moving soon and it feels bittersweet. So many magical moments happened in this apartment. From signing my second book deal to starting the journey of returning lost heirlooms, these walls have seen soooo much happiness. But where one chapter ends, another begins. My life is no longer what it was a year ago, and that means my home needs to change with the tide. Lots of exciting changes are to come over the next few months, and I can’t wait to share everything with you all!!

This fight is far from over. In 2013, eBay removed This fight is far from over. In 2013, eBay removed Holocaust-related items after public backlash. And they vowed never to sell them again, including adding “Holocaust-related items” to their policy of items not allowed for sale. However, they are still letting vendors sell these artifacts because of the enormous amount of $$$ profit they are making from these items. After recent backlash from my social videos, they responded to a reporter saying, “In response to Ms. Brown’s correspondence, we are reviewing our policy to update the relevant sections to clarify what is prohibited.” Basically, they will be changing their policy to allow these items. And before someone jumps at me and says, these families just give these items away, that is a MYTH. 

Items end up at flea markets and in resellers hands for two main reasons: 1. Family drama: Someone gets access to an estate and doesn’t give the items to the rest of the family and 2. Many items were lost after WWII as many families moved. Items were lost during those moves and continue to circulate to this day. In fact, I had someone message me a few weeks ago that they saw their grandmother’s holocaust diary on eBay, and the seller would not go lower on price so she could have that item back. It sold to someone else. eBay, this is far from over.
