Online Living Room Design Reveal!

Do you remember this online living room design I recently completed?
I was so excited when the after pictures showed up in my inbox!
Here is the design board I sent her:
She just needed help with the finishing touches.
The room already had great bones which sure made my job easy!
I  suggested adding the mirror and botanical prints to balance out the back wall and create a focal point.
I also selected throw pillows, drapery, accessories, and made a suggestion for a rug that she is saving up for.
The windows were crying for some love.
Simple white panels helped soften the space and add that needed finishing touch.

Isn’t is amazing the difference accessories can make?
It’s weird to think I’ve never been in this space.
Yay for online designing, it really is an awesome thing!

Creating Magical Spaces for Children

Have you had a chance to check out House of Fifty’s Winter/Spring issue?
If not, you are missing out.
I am currently working on a couple of children’s spaces and found so much inspiration in this issue.
Saudah Saleem’s article on Creating Magical Spaces for Children is well worth the read.
She shares 10 tips on designing children’s spaces.
I loved every tip.
And the bedrooms featured are drool worthy.
Packed full of color and whimsical touches, just how I like them.

Now head on over and get inspired yourself.
Happy reading!

Thrifty Tuesdays: Chiang Mai Dragon Pillows

I bet you didn’t think that Chiang Mai Dragon pillows and thrifty could be in the same sentence?
Well, I scored myself a pair of new 18″x18″ doubled sided and piped Chiang Mai Dragon pillows for $40.00 each.
Thank you Ebay.
These beauties came all the way from the UK.
And they are perfect.

I know I am way behind the Chiang Mai Dragon craze but I still love them.
And I love them even more for $40.00 each.

I am still unsure about where they will land but I think they look pretty spiffy on my couch.

I highly recommend you check out this Ebay seller, she sure has some great deals!
Gotta love a bargain.
