Friday Finds

By
Lydia (my 6 mo. daughter) and I decided we needed to get out of the house and take a break from client's projects, and playing on the floor with baby toys. So I just wandered into Target (ooh...I know...glamorous outing!) They always seem to have inexpensive, and lovely home decor items. Right now, they are featuring a blue and white collection. What I love about this collection is that it is transitional decor using a a classic color - navy. So to me, it is more of a color trend that will have more longevity.

My Favorite Way to Hide Toys in My Family Room

By
We were is desperate need of something to hide toys in our family room.  In addition, I really needed something to go along the back our loveseat.  Below, is basically the view you get when you walk into our home.  I didn't want people to walk in & the first thing they see is the bare back of our loveseat. One day, I was meandering around TJ Maxx & spotted this cute storage ottoman.  Right away, I knew it needed to come home with me! It has proved to be a fantastic purchase for us!  My kids can easily get toys in & out of it.  It is also a very convenient place to sit & put your shoes on before heading out the door.  In addition, it can easily be moved around to the main sitting area if extra seating is ever needed.

Elegant Dining Room Makeover

By
I had the pleasure of helping a local client decorate their dining room.  The space was pretty plain and lacked personality.  I knew it had possibilities with those tall ceilings and beautiful arched windows. (Before) My client was very budget conscientious so I did not go over board on decor.  I was very thoughtful of the decor I suggested and made sure the items we put in the space really made a 'wow' statement. This is the mood board I put together for my client to show the decor that I thought would look gorgeous in the space. My clients' liked everything, with exception of the chandelier.  They were not in love with the one I selected and it was a little too expensive.  As a replacement, I found this chandelier that I think was even more perfect for the space. So without further adieu, here are the pictures of the completed space! Would you like help making your home a place you love to be??
