Stenciled Walls?

A couple weeks ago I selected a variety of wallpapers for my clients powder room.
Of course, we were both drawn to the most expensive options.
Although wallpaper is fabulous, we talked about stenciling.
She was hesitant and worried that her powder room would look like something straight out of the 1990’s!
So I sent her a couple of inspiration pictures…

She was amazed.
We still haven’t decided on our direction but stenciling is definitely an option.
So, what would you do?
Would you use a stencil instead of wallpaper?

I could live here…

I just ran across this home designed by i suwannee
I love how livable it feels.
I am so attracted to traditional homes.
I love this formal entry, it feels very old fashioned.
This bedroom is so simple yet welcoming.
The blue and orange color combo is a favorite of mine.
Hello ceiling, absolutely perfect.
This family room is the great mix of playful and sophisticated.
Such a lovely rug and chandelier.

Sometimes I get frustrated looking through magazines knowing that my home will never look like that.
I love seeing real homes, ones that even children could live in!

Online Family Room Design

I have been very busy working on online designs.
I especially loved working with this client.
It was such a fun project and the space is stunning, I can’t get over those incredible ceilings.
This room is used for everything.
Entertaining, family time, watching television, playing games, and relaxing.
I wanted the design to comfortable, playful, and yet refined.
My client had already fallen in love with this console table from Wisteria.
It definitely set the tone for the room.
I then added blues, pinks, and pops of citron to give the room a little flavor.
She was thrilled with the design and I can’t wait to see it come to life!

Our Weekend…

I am happy to report that we are both better!
The first day was rough, we did lots of cuddling and sleeping.
Emory was in a lot of pain so we headed to the doctor.
Unfortunately, she refused to pee in the cup so she had to get a catheter.
It.was.traumatic.
We got her on some antibiotics and she is doing much better.
We even went on a lunch date.

And did a little shopping at TJ Maxx.
I found these beautiful upholstered captains chairs that might work perfectly in one of my clients kitchen nooks.
We ended the weekend with a coconut root beer shaved ice, with cream of course.
Yum.
Overall, it was good.
Now back to work!
