Happy weekend..



This is how my brain feels today!  Over packed. bursting at the seams. but always ready for another challenge.  I have gotten to the point were my mind is going one way and my mouth is going another, I have started saying things out of order...  Hello!  See how I am rambling now- so bad.  

Okay now that you know I have hit max capacity, I am heading off to the LA show today to soak up some more design and order pieces for my current projects!!  Yey!  

Have a wonderful weekend my friends, and may your mind find a bit of peace...

a little kitchen inspiration...




I have been hording images for months and after getting the green light on the kitchen remodel I have had to finally narrow it down.  So here they are most of my favorites...
Above is the beautiful kitchen from the home of Loi Thai from Tone on Tone.  Pendants love them and they seem pretty similar to the pair that I purchased last week for my kitchen!  Cabinets- beautiful color so soft and clean and just not quite white (well in this photo- I am not sure if they are in person).

 I love this glass front cabinet for dishes and glassware with storage on the bottom.
Something similar will go where our really large pantry is now.


Beautiful island love the cabinet color..  Our island will be a light grey to match the colors in the backsplash which will be a vein cut limestone (my color starting point).


I love the base detail on this piece and of course the color is super cool.


We will have a similar cook top- I am leaning towards the Kitchen-aid version with a griddle.
Yes please.


I love this cabinet too for dishes just deciding on the style.  Mine will have a dark espresso finish.


I love the huge molding detail on the top of the cabinetry in this space and the storage on the island.

As well as the amazing pendants!

Also, thank you for all of your sweet comments and emails about my last post!!  Keeping those fingers crossed for me always helps!  Off to start a wonderful week...

Master bedroom design




I had the recent pleasure of designing a wonderfully large master suite for one of my clients.  This is a fantastic space and her taste is really great with a mix of transitional pieces and modern accents.   I love spaces like this that allow for a great collected look even when the pieces are brought together at the same time.  It allows you to add in details and mix it up with vintage and new accessories.

Our inspiration came from some of Darryl Carters work which I love.

Finishing up..


Above is a grouping of fabrics and finishes that represent the way I typically start a project.  From here I will pull photos and ideas to see which direction to take it.  Once I have that done (sometimes it is the hardest part to find an image that conveys what I want the space to say) I work on the furniture layout and then onto the furnishings themselves.  The final step in my designing process is to put the fabrics and finishes on the proper pieces.  It takes a while to get from design to the finished product, but it is really nice to get there! 




 



This project actually has a few more rooms but I did not like the way my photos looked so I had a limited selection!  If anyone knows of a good commercial photographer in Northern California I would love a good recommendation.

On a totally separate note my friend Molly Wood is having a One Kings Lane sale starting this morning!  Stop by and check out her goodies!

Bits of Blue..










It can be a really good feeling to get a project on the side of the bar that is completed.  Last week I spent most of my time running around finishing this and 4 other projects up.  These are a few of my favorite views from this one.  I love the splashes of blue even if I cannot commit to a color myself, I truly deeply love this blue.  This project was really fun to mix in the vintage details here and there giving it a little bit more of an eclectic feeling.

I hope you are looking forward to a wonderful new week - I know I am.  There are a lot of finishing details for behind the scenes and new projects to begin!

Vintage inspiration





Friday finally!  This weekend promises to be busy and fun on Sunday I will be going to the Long Beach flea market to pick up some accessories for the jobs I will be installing at the beginning of May.  It is always so fun to add some vintage pieces into spaces.

I am also hoping to get around to adding some items to our Vintage section of the shop for you also.  Things are finally becoming more manageable around here so I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will get to share everything with you.

What about you what do you have planned for the weekend?  Something wonderful I hope!

Teen Bedroom design


 




I have had the pleasure of working with one of my clients on a bedroom for her 16 year old daughter.  It is really fun to see her inspiration and what she wants to do with her space.  

I wanted her to have something fun and functional with a little bit of spice to keep it interesting for her.  I suggested a large leaning bulletin board and a lot of smaller photo/art frames, as well a bright splashes of color in the rug and pillows.  

It is always nice to do something a little different!

If you are interested in our online design services you can check out some of my other projects here.
