Country Cottage Guest Room

This one was for my mom. She has taken great care of me and Michael. So when she said she wanted to re-do the guest bedroom, we jumped at the chance. The room had a dropped ceiling and wood paneling as old as me...which makes it thirty-ahem years old! We removed the dropped ceiling and returned it to it's 10-foot-high glory and put a country cottage spin on it.

Hollywood Regency Guest Bath

This guest bath was an embarrassing Pepto Bismal pink before we got our hands on it. With some paint, a fabulous new mirror, matching light sconces, and some luxury accessories, it is now a fabulous room worthy of spoiling guests in true Hollywood Regency style.

A Fun, Carefree, Beach-inspired Bathroom

We have a client on Nantucket who is obsessed with turquoise. Which is good, because I am too! We had a great time painting and dressing up this fun and carefree bathroom, which was inspired by the beach.

Personalized Photo Wall

A friend let us spend a week at his beach condo. As a gift I took these pictures of his house and the property and created this personalized photo wall for him and his girlfriend. A simple, afternoon project. (Note: Click on the picture to enlarge)

Floral Designs

Michael is also a gifted floral artist. Here are only a few of his creations:

Stumble-in to Walk-in Closet

This walk-in closet was really only a stumble-in closet before we took it on. Now you can easily see and find every article of clothing and pair of shoes.

Art Deco Dining Room

Stripes can really lengthen the appearance of a room and they fit in nicely with our Art Deco theme for this dining room, inspired by the small cabinet in the corner. And if you have a window that is not centered on the wall or looks too small for the room, don't be afraid to extend the curtains beyond the width of the window as we did here.

Reupholstering - Our Favorite Pastime!

I don't know what it is about fabric stores, but they make me giddy! So many designs and textures. Here we reupholstered 6 dining chairs to complement the wonderful architecture and color of the Art Deco furniture. And because we loved the fabric so much, we did a hope chest to match.

Gorgeous Great Room

This was a beautiful great room, but it was hidden behind old blue carpet and outdated (and too small) furniture. The homeowners put in hardwood floors and we painted, created floor-to-ceiling red velvet curtains, and designed a built-in shelving unit and entertainment center that really shows off the size of the room.
