More Mirrors!

From the same house as the "Fab Foyer" posting I bring you my favorite dining room. Again, we went with more Greek pillars support a piece of glass to create a beautiful and unique side table. The paint is also a unique shade of chocolate brown meets charcoal gray; it really pops against the white lacquered wood work and the pillars. It is dark and regal and creates a very welcoming atmosphere.

Watts Redesign

The Watts Family just moved into a beautiful, new home and they were excited to make it their own. The living room and dining room are connected for an open space that will make a great place for entertaining family and friends. Kerri (wife and mother of 3 cuties) wanted something family friendly, yet sophisticated and chic. With the woodwork a light/honey oak we decided to paint a couple of the walls a dark bronzie-gray to create a nice "pop." The windows were a tricky fix as they were very close to the corner or the wall on one side and the other was overlapped with the fireplace mantle. So, we went with a long drapery panel of silk in a shade of peridot. With a bold pair of canvasses, a floor lamp and a few vases and other accessories we created a look that was both kid friendly and sophisticated. See Below:

Puppy's Room: New Art!

I've always admired this Van Gogh piece, Almond Branches. But, my house doesn't offer a space that welcomes the blues and teals in the print. However, while hanging with the pup in her room I decided she needed some art on the wall adjacent to the painted-by-me branches with leaves, so I decided to splurge on my beloved Van Gogh.
