“Creating a calm retreat, one corner at a time,” is how San Diego mother, Oksana Silchuk describes her journey of styling her home. Silchuk has four children and she shares her family’s adventures in style, design, and the kitchen on her Instagram page. She loves using Piccalio’s kitchen collection with her younger children to help them achieve independence.

Piccalio: What drew you to the Piccalio pieces you chose and why?

Oksana Slichuk: We’ve been using the Foldable Tower for over a year and our toddler loves it. The moment we got the tower, the high chair was forgotten. It makes our toddler feel included and important. Silas loves being close to us for meal time, play time and helping mama cook. 

Piccalio: How would you describe your interior style or style philosophy?

Oksana Slichuk: Simple and clean yet warm and unique. Things that are one of a kind, vintage, and handmade but easy on the eyes are items I gravitate towards.

Oksana Slichuk: The Piccalio Foldable Helper Tower has changed our lives! Silas loves being eye level and he loves feeling included. The tower is also versatile, even I use it in those hard to reach spaces. Also, all the fun accessories are a big hit with the kids!
