The countdown is on!

This week is the final stages of installation for a house I've been working on with

Tiek Built Homes for the last few months. It's always really gratifying to a see a project

like this come together, but there are a definitely a lot of nerves, late nights, and even

sometimes tears involved in a large project like this. Doing a whole house with a

tight deadline can be such a big undertaking. Add other clients, a busy schedule,

a toddler and a new baby into the mix, I think you have a recipe for insanity.

We're on the countdown though and I'll be sharing snippets of how

the home is coming together all week long, so stay tuned.

Above is the inspiration board for the living room.

We wanted to go with some classic pieces, but pieces that still felt fresh and not too stuffy.

The inspiration for our color palette came from this kitchen nook from Serena and Lily.

Things are coming together and the sofa is getting delivered this week, but I have to say

I think my favorite part is going to be the window seat! I just can't get over the pillows!

you can sign up here and the address and info will be emailed to you.

Bohemian style with a modern twist

These pictures are of a family room I recently completed for a client. They were taken by the lovely Sara Bateman a few weeks back. One of the things that I love about what I do is that each project presents a new challenge, and ultimately a new style. My client Stacy wanted a space that felt bohemian and eclectic, but modern at the same time. What I love most about this space is the detail, pattern, and interest in it. Between the art, objects, and textiles there is so much to look at but because it is all unified by a simple color palette, it pulls together.

We used a microvelvet on the sofa (feels like velvet, holds up like microfiber and is great with kids) to soften the look and add coziness and a modern lacquered coffee table.The chevron rug is from Calypso Home.

My client Stacy had a great collection of art and prints that help bring an eclectic vibe to the space.

I love the texture these woven chairs bring in. These were the client's own, but I knew I didn't want this space to feel too new of contrived so we decided they would stay and just added some sweet little pillows to tie them in.

The media piece and coffee table are both by Bungalow 5 and add a sophisticated and modern feel to the space.

Little Lila was our assistant on the photo shoot. We're just finishing up her room

upstairs with the most gorgeous Thibaut wallpaper. I can't wait to share it with you!

The key to getting an eclectic look is all in the mix.

I love searching out interesting accessories to add some unexpected details.

So what do you think? I want to move right in.

Stay tuned later this week for another spot in the house!

Jordan Willows Part II

As I mentioned a few weeks back, the last few months I was working on a group of 3 model homes for Fieldstone Homes. Here is the next home. this home is slightly more on the modern end and decorated primarily in a palette greys, blacks, and white. This might be my favorite of the 3 homes.

The master bedroom with buffalo check curtains, a custom headboard and a pillow of Celerie Kemble's hot house flowers.

The boys bedroom

One of my favorite items in the whole house, the Dwell Studio Chinoiserie Pillow purchased from Furbish
