Every Home Needs One Of These

Good Morning!

I love to entertain.  Nothing makes me happier when my house is filled with people enjoying themselves and having a good time.
One of the things I truly believe is that every home should have a bar station or a bar (serving) cart.  I have been working with several clients that love to host and this really makes people feel welcome and want to stay awhile.




Now if you can't do a built in perhaps a bar cart would work..




 or bar cabinet



These are great even for those who don't like to drink.  You can serve tea or refreshing drinks and non-alcoholic beverages.  
The glistening of the glass bottles and some bite sized foods will cause people to relax and enjoy themselves.

Would you consider having one in your home?


BTW..
It was 63 degrees here yesterday and today we practically have a blizzard.  What is seriously going on with this weather?

Yummy Wallpaper

Good Evening!

If you know me I am always on the hunt for fabulous things for your home.  There is no secret on how much I love wallpaper.  Wall & Deco is just right at the forefront and I love how this company thinks outside the box.





 I am dying to do something dramatic in my own home as well as a clients space.

Maybe this will just wet your appetite a bit.  Be inspired :)
Here is the 2013 collection

Green Is Not Just Good For Your Health

Good Evening!

I have been obsessed with the color, emerald.  I am exploring options on where to use this color in my home. I would love to bring this into my kitchen and the research begins..

green pendant, plants, and chairs
Simple and easy to do.


simply green


breakfast area chairs in green


I think I am going to paint my kitchen chairs.  Then later refinish my table and stain it.

I am also debating painting my foyer table as well..hmm.  Have any of you used this color in your space yet?  Do you find it intimidating?

How To Decorate A Tall Fireplace Wall

Good Morning!

I love my job!  Being an interior designer gives me the opportunity to enrich lives and bring so much joy to clients as well as people I meet.  I recently got asked a question on how to decorate a tall fireplace wall and on a budget.

Here are some ideas that can be used as inspiration.

Let The Light Shine In

Good Afternoon!

I have an easy small space solution that will instantly make your space feel bigger and it won't cost you a dime.

Simply open your windows and let the natural light come in.

You don't know how many homes I go into and it feels dark and closed in...separated from nature.  I know for myself that my mood is better and have more energy with letting the light in.

Here are some great inspiration spaces for you..

Entryway Beauty

Good Morning!
Hope everyone's Holiday was filled with joy and family.  I know mine was and I feel extremely blessed.

We have entered into a new year and it got me thinking about entryways.

Your entryway is like the appetizer for your home - it makes you anticipate the main course.  It's one of the first areas where you can take risk and add interest to your space.


Love the use of green here.  It is right on trend with Pantone's color of the year.


Dramatic table


Wallpaper and green front door


Go bold!


Small entry use a lucite console table and neutral colors to make the space appear larger but keeping the function.


Organization with the wow factor..

So, what kind of entryway are you creating?  In your outlook on this brand new year? and in your home?
