I’m excited to introduce my series for the next few weeks! We are going to decipher some of the most common interior design styles and help you figure out what your interior design style is! We’ll work our way from the traditional style to (my favorite) the transitional and everything in between. Some of you may work in a few different styles in your own homes. But knowing what your tendencies are is a great way to communicate with designers and other design/tradespeople.
Hi all! Today I’m guest posting over at Pretty Distressed about how to create your own stencil! To see the full post, check it out here!
If you love this darling little table and are interested in buying it, hop on over to my Etsy store. Either way, be sure to show Christina some love today over at Pretty Distressed!
We’ve all seen the Asian-rice-paper-room screens (who knows what they are really called?). It’s starting to get a bit cliche and I’m in the mood for a new idea or two on how to divide space with something other than paper and bamboo…so I’m sharing a few of my favorites with you! (I thought that rhymed for a second- but I don’t think it does).
Ah, the joys of first-time home buying…it takes about 5 seconds into the process to figure out that men and women are different. Let’s be clear, men and women are looking for different things when it comes to a home. So, how do we take both into account in the same environment?
Well, I think it’s just about time for an update! I have a master bedroom project nearing completion, and I’m so excited to share it with you! I actually have a few projects that I’m finishing up, but I’m especially excited about this one.
Welcome back to week 2 on counter tops! Last week we went over the 7 Most Popular Countertop Surfaces: pros, cons, and costs! This week, we’re coming back down to earth and learning about counter tops for those who might not want to invest quite so much. These materials might just surprise and delight you!
Ah, the wonderful world of counter tops … solid surface, porous, natural stone, engineered stone, recycled, concrete—slow down! The options for counter surfaces seem overwhelming, but fear not! I’m here to simplify and give you all the pros, cons, and details in one place, so let’s get started, shall we?
Welcome to the mid-week special on 2014 nursery trends for your baby boy! This is a follow-up to Pretty in Pink: 2014 Nursery Trends for Your Baby Girl. My title was inspired by the recent gender reveal of my soon-to-be niece. I was wrong and 100% on team blue (boy), and, as much as I like being right, I’m just glad that my little niece is on her way!
Hear that? It’s the baby train, and it has officially arrived! We are anxiously waiting for a niece to join our family this summer! Besides that, Kelly Clarkson is expecting a girl and rumor has it that Kate Middleton expecting another (I sure hope so!). So here it is: a post just for your little sweet pea and what the 2014 nursery trends hold for her!
Looking for a way to get the master suite they wanted with as little involvement as possible, my mother- and father-in-law approached me about designing their room. The problem: I live 800 miles away. Thanks to technology, I’m able to design a room remotely—never stepping foot inside!
A few weeks ago I was approached by a wonderful new client about choosing colors for her new home! Color consultations are one of my favorite packages, so I was very excited. When asked about their style they gave me adjectives like clean, sleek, and not afraid of color.
Though radioactive purple may be a surprise for the Pantone Color of the Year for 2014, Emerald Green, Tangerine Tango, and Turquoise, are just a few of Pantone’s previous choices in the past few years…and they were right about those! Will they be right with yet another unexpected prediction?
