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 :)

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.

I feel so blessed about my business.  It's growing and I must say I have the most awesome clients.  I thank God I get to do what I love.

Here is a sneak peek of a space I have just started working on ..

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.

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?

Ummm..It's Time To Go

Good Morning!

I know you all know that renovations are a tedious process but when it's all complete the joy of accomplishment will be your pride and joy.  I do enjoy seeing the transformation no matter how slow the process.

Here is my kitchen..

 It's a really good size for our family.  I have two skylights which I adore.  

Now this is what I hate about the space

1. The flowery border...seriously!  It makes the height of my ceiling feel a lot lower.

2. The appliances that are old and white.

3.  Faux marble green countertops with the white edging

4. The fan..everytime I open the cabinet it smacks right into it.

5. The knobs that are gold with the center of white

6. The floor..yep, no terra cotta for me and finally...

7. I like color so the white paint has to go to..it doesn't work having kids (for me)

We started getting major leaks around the one skylight over the sink area and one in our family room (I will share the process of getting it fixed in another post).  Since they had to get fixed we are going to paint.  Yippee!!

 Isn't that wallpaper hideous?!

It's starting to feel taller in here already : )

I hope your life is full of wonderful transformations.  Have a great weekend all : )
