WELCOME to Nest by Tamara blog

WELCOME to Nest by Tamara blog
Since 2010 I've been sharing my passion for interior design, history, art, entertaining, travel & fashion here on Nest by Tamara. I am an interior designer, writer and textile designer at rootcellardesigns.com living and working in New York City and East Hampton, Long Island. My musings have taken me to international design, art, antique and epicurean events. I have been asked to write on these subjects for magazines and online media, and I also regularly host events and talk on these subjects. I am grateful to have been listed as the #1 top design blog, blogs to watch, top design blogs and named and awarded Rising Star of Design by the IFDA NY industry organization. Please feel free to reach out to our team at rootcellardesigns@gmail.com -Tamara

Beautiful Tables By Talented Designers For The Lenox Hill Spring Gala in New York City

 

Nine Favorite Tables
At 
The 2026 Lenox Hill Spring Gala

Another great year in the books for this beautiful event, an annual tabletop extravaganza celebrating artistry while acting as a wonderful fundraiser for the Upper East Side's Lenox Hill Neighborhood House.  This year's black-tie dinner and dancing gala channeling a "Once Upon a Dream" theme to give the designers and artists inspiration.  Take a look at several of our favorites from designers hailing from all around the country. We had the great opportunity to interview a few as well, and see those linked below.  Please read about the storied history of the Lenox Hill Neighborhood House.
