Pops of Color in the Living Room!

So I'm so excited to show you a client's beautiful home I've been working on! This room has all the stylish trends going on including: aqua, navy and gray-some of the hot colors for 2017!

 We started with a gray and white color pallet- then added the the navy, coal and aqua as the accent colors with accessories.

My client had bought the Ikea Ektorp sofas two years ago with white slip covers- but they just didn't stay clean with five kids and a dog. She constantly found herself washing them every other week. So we updated them with brand new the gray covers- they're turned great! They're so classy and they stay clean!

The pillows needed have pops of colors to accent the darker couches- so navy, white and coral became an ideal combination. Texture also played a role in what pillows were chosen because we wanted to convey interest and depth. The pillows came from Etsy and Pottery Barn.

For the coffee table decor we started by making a trip to At Home (formerly know as Garden Ridge). The lantern was the first thing picked, and then the rest of the decor fell into place! The aqua vase and picture frame also came from At Home. The unique decorator books were purchased on ColorMille. 

With five children, she also needed a durable, washable coffee table. So this one from Wayfair did the trick!

This custom made "this is our happy place" sign from The Rustic Sparrow Shop. It has such a beautiful message and really pulls this space together. It also creates such an uplifting presence in the room.

Next up is decorating the fireplace mantle- and there are already big plans in the works for it! I can't wait to share!

I Love Style boards!

I LOVE doing style boards for clients when doing a complete room make over! It helps to envision what the room will look like. 

Here's one I just completed for a client who LOVES bright bold patterns and colors! I can't wait to start shopping! 

I really love the challenge of decorating with different styles of decor to meet my client's unique personalities. 

Stay tuned for more progress pics!

Client's Entryway Update!

Just finished this clients entryway, and I'm so glad she loves it!

The table was purchased off of Craig's List. The client wanted a one of a kind piece that we could teak to make her own. The table was refinished from natural wood color to painted white for a fresh modern look. The legs and knobs were added after they were spray painted gold. 

Then it was off to a trip to Home Goods to find accessories. The navy blue vases came from there. The gold lamp and gold decorative ball came from Target. And the stunning mirror was ordered from Overstock. The client wanted some yellow- so we incorporated it in the flowers. 

I love how the flowers and accessories bring fun pops of color against the freshly painted walls. (Paint color: Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter.) 

It was a fun project to work on! 

Loving Contrasting Colors!

A while back I was able to shop for a wonderful client who was living in Houston, 4 hours away, so she flew me to her gorgeous home and enlisted me to help decorate! Here is a picture of her master bedroom. After many hours of furniture shopping, we found this perfect traditional, yet super chic, bedroom set from Bassett. Then we found the perfect bedding at Pottery Barn, paired with brush nickel bed said lamps from Home Goods.

 We both loved the light and dark contrast of the light bedding against the black four posted bed. 

Sneak Peak!

Here's a a little preview of a clients living room I've been working on. In the last few months, we've totally remodeled her home! New lights, new furniture, carpet, travertine floors.. the works!
More photos to come!

Old World Charm

I've been busy this whole month working on a big project! My client, who's an art collector, just moved into her home and wanted over 40 custom pieces of art work grouped, arranged, and installed. We also picked out new accessories and furniture to make her home feel like home! 

A Few Accessories Make Big Changes!

Welcome to this cozy and inviting home! The client wanted to their new home to have character and a more personalble feel. 

To keep with the wooded, peaceful, feel of the home, bringing natural elements and texture were a must! Airy florals, light grass decor, stick sprigs, were mixed in with metallic and glass vases did the trick.

A Landscape Feel

It was a serene, landscape color pallet for this home! 

The client, Julie, wanted to refresh the kitchen and family rooms without painting the walls or replacing the big item furniture. She was on a tight budget, but wanted to make noticeable changes. She wanted her rental house to feel like a home. 

She had a very open floor plan so the two rooms needed to flow. Using old accessories she had around the house, I mixed it with new decor purchased from stores like as Home Goods, and Hobby Lobby. Everything came to together!

After suggesting to paint existing coffee and sofa tables, Julie did just that and transformed them like new! We came across the perfect window panels from Pottery Barn. They were the exact colors in our color pallet- with a paisley pattern to give the room some texture and interest. 

Her kitchen had high vaulted ceilings- so tall accessories above the kitchen cabinets were a must! The accents also had to have splashes of color to go with the unity of the two rooms

It turned out to be a wonderful relaxing area without breaking the bank!
