Meet the Blogger: Here In This House with Elise & Mae (Part 1 of 3)

The DDB's Fall Market 2011 is weeks away and we're thrilled to be sharing the Bloggers Lounge roster. Co-sponsored by GoDesignGo and Editor at Large, the lounge will welcome 15 bloggers who will be covering market events throughout the week.


Today we want you to meet the duo behind Here In This House, Elise Marshall Jones and Mae Hacking. The design blog is known as a place "where design meets reality," focusing on the creative and artistic pursuits the two ladies bring to their own houses.


Elise, a wife and mom of two girls, also serves as the social media director for the mom-community, babybites. She performs in theater, cooks and travels as well as serves on her local public arts council and community theater board.




"My favorite thing about Here In This House is the writing and discovery of new products, people and places," said Elise. "I love to take pictures and to have a post inspire others to do something. The blog also helps me have a concrete and accountable place to chronicle my home renovations and design."


"I feel like I have to keep going in order to have great content and to stay true to the blog’s tagline: 'Where design meets reality,'" said Elise. "Here In This House has also made me appreciate how many great products there are out there as well as discover the unique stories behind them!"




Mae is a design and fashion enthusiast and a retail strategist specializing in creating new businesses and developing brand strategies for iconic American brands. She currently resides in the greater New York City area with her husband and two children.


"Most of all, I so enjoy meeting and engaging with other people who share a passion for design," Mae said. "On our blog, through social media and in person, I welcome every opportunity to share with and learn from people in all areas of the industry. I also love getting out into the marketplace, seeing first hand what the latest developments and trends are and talking with those who are responsible for these creations!"
