Allow me to welcome you to theaubreycraig.com!
With my recent nuptials to Matt – and my blog journey approaching a decade – it is time to update this space to feel closer to home.
I began blogging back in 2013, as a college student on the west coast. I first launched under the name The Coastal Confidence – capturing my life living bi-coastal, my hometown of Connecticut, and the New England aesthetic.
With each passing season, many new pages have filled my life’s story.
In 2017, my high school sweetheart, Matt, and I returned to Connecticut. The two of us took on a New England fixer-upper. And in 2019, I purchased Mr. Trophy – an awards recognition and engraving shop that’s been at the heart of Connecticut’s community since 1962 in Hartford. Most recently, in the autumn of 2022 – Matt and I tied the knot surrounded by fall foliage, family, and friends.
Today, I continue to capture New England’s quintessential moments throughout the seasons! And the decision to relaunch the blog as Aubrey Craig felt only natural as Matt and I enter this new season of our lives as a family.
Additionally, I wanted to create a platform that felt like the perfect complement to New England Interiors: a sub-brand of Aubrey Craig. Created in 2021, NEI is dedicated to bringing the charm of New England living into today’s homes.
Over the past six months, I’ve worked with the Malone team to create a new brand identity, website, and home for our sub-brand New England Interiors. So without further ado let’s dive into what you can expect from us going forward:
Aubrey Craig stands for curating and embodying the old and awe-inspiring historic aesthetic of colonial New England living within or outside New England. Rooted in legacy and connection to the history of our nation – we scour New England to bring you a glimpse of historical towns, antiques, and our present-day New England traditions.
Aubrey Craig is broken up into three major categories: home, life, and seasonal with the goal of bringing a simplistic snapshot of quintessential New England living throughout the seasons to our readers.
Say hello to New England Interiors!
Our brand extension has been a labor of love. It is steadfast in curating a shoppable representation of historic colonial furnishing for today’s homes.
A sub-brand of Aubrey Craig, New England Interiors believes that a colonial New England home aesthetic embraces the old and awe-inspiring history of our region. All while being both aspirational and practical. We rummage through authenticated antique sellers online to bring you the best antique options. In order to add character and charm to your home! We also incorporate new and modern home furnishing pieces that will cohesively tie your space together. Both from the past and the present!
Above all else, we hope to encapsulate you to bring the charms and character of New England living into your home.
Of course, this site wouldn’t be possible without all of you! Thank you to everyone that’s been along on my blogging journey. You watched me move and redecorate several times. You’ve witnessed Matt and I graduate college, get engaged, and now married. You’ve seen us travel locally and abroad. But, my favorite part is sharing the snapshots of my life in New England with you all!
