When a designer you admire chooses to include pieces from Scout & Nimble in their own home, it means the world. This month, we're thrilled to share a glimpse into Jennifer Hunter's beautifully curated Connecticut sanctuary—and the few special pieces she selected from our collection to make it her own.

Jennifer Hunter: A Designer's Designer
Jennifer Hunter has built her reputation creating spaces that feel both sophisticated and genuinely livable, centering her design philosophy on finding that sweet spot where classic elements meet contemporary life. It’s this timeless approach that makes her work so compelling.
When House Beautiful featured Jennifer's own Connecticut home, we couldn't help but feel honored to spot a few familiar pieces woven throughout her thoughtfully designed rooms.
Jennifer’s Scout & Nimble Picks
It's always meaningful when designers choose to shop with us, but it says something extra special when they source pieces for their own personal sanctuary.

BERNHARDT FURNITURE
Jennifer selected these Bernhardt chairs and transformed them with custom upholstery inspired by the Mayflower Inn. Her review says it all:
"If you're looking to upgrade your dining space with something that blends form and function, this chair is a no-brainer. I absolutely love the elegant silhouette and it was super easy to custom upholstery in my favorite fabric."
Whitewash Ribbon Sideboard
SARREID, LTD
"This buffet is exactly what my dining space needed and is a perfect blend of rustic charm and everyday functionality," Jennifer shares. "The white-washed finish is beautifully distressed, offering that weathered, lived-in look without leaning too heavily into shabby chic. Best of all, it provides plenty of storage, making it as practical as it is stylish."
SHOP THE LOOK: Alfie Dining Table

FOUR HANDS
For her kitchen, Jennifer chose this piece for its versatility:
"This table brings a warm, lived-in feel to our kitchen, with just the right touch of rustic character. Whether you're going for a classic country look or a more modern farmhouse vibe, this table fits right in. The finish is smooth and slightly weathered, giving it that casual, welcoming feel without looking overly distressed."

Jennifer appreciated how this piece solved multiple needs in her bedroom.
"This large natural oak nightstand is perfect as a bedside piece, but also doubles as a dresser. The finish is gorgeous in person with visible graining that adds texture and character to the space."

JAMIE YOUNG
This Jamie Young side table caught Jennifer's eye for good reason:
"It's compact enough to tuck beside a chair or sofa, but the mix of materials gives it a bold, high-end look that instantly elevates any space.”
SHOP THE LOOK: Plaza Beveled Mirror

REGINA ANDREW DESIGN
"The beveled edges add depth and dimension, while the gilded frame brings just the right amount of vintage-inspired glamour. It catches the light beautifully and instantly brightens the room."
What Jennifer’s Home Shows Us
Jennifer's home is a masterclass in layered, thoughtful design. Every room tells a story of careful curation, mixing textures, periods, and sources to create something that feels both collected and cohesive.
What strikes us most about Jennifer's approach is how she makes everything look effortless while clearly being incredibly intentional. It's exactly the kind of design sensibility that inspires us—and exactly why we love working with designers who understand that great rooms come from great choices, no matter where those choices are sourced.
We're just grateful to have played a small part in her vision.
Why We Love Working with Trade Designers
Our Trade Program exists to streamline that process, so designers can focus on what they do best: creating beautiful spaces.
Stories like Jennifer's remind us why we started Scout & Nimble in the first place. As designers ourselves, we know how much time goes into sourcing—the endless vendor relationships, the coordinating, the logistics that can pull you away from the creative work you love.
SHOP THE LOOK: Rex Mirror
"I absolutely loved working with Scout & Nimble for my own home," she tells us. "Making all my selections was super easy because I was able to browse their site by both category and style. When it came to the ordering process, it was so simple since I only had one cart to check out of. I then received timely updates about the status of my order and when I could expect my pieces. All the logistics were handled for me and I had a dedicated trade rep checking in throughout the process. 10/10.”
We're honored when designers like Jennifer choose to work with us, and we're even more honored when they trust us with pieces for their own homes. That trust never goes unnoticed.

The day I spent four hours tracking down a single light fixture while three clients were waiting for design decisions, I realized something had to change. You can create the most beautiful spaces in the world, but without systems that scale, you'll spend more time putting out fires than actually designing.
