In truth, those designers usually do spend large amounts of money on products. How many times have you loved something in the picture, quickly flip back to the resource guide only to find "To the trade only" or find the site and that one candle holder was $369!!!!<br />

Sometimes even when I'm holding the curtains or paint swatch right against the wall. Once we narrow down the choices I usually follow up with the rendition of the room. I found an awesome app for my iPad called Sketch book, that allows me to do this(usually in bed or the couch at 11 pm at night or especially while my husband is watching sports!)

I started with what colors would look good with his already large gray sofa and then looked in the art work and decided to draw off the orange in the background color. his budget was very tight but we managed to create a new desk area, add additional seating, lighting, tables, even a tv stand with storage (especially to hide those Xbox controllers!)<br />

I am slightly obsessed with <a href="http://polyvore.com/">Polyvore</a> these days. I'm working on some ideas for a potential client's shared teen room. I'm not sure if this is what we are going with but my daughter loves it!! And my inner teen girly girl is going crazy, why didn't they have ghost chairs when I was a teen!<br />

about it all. Plus we do plan on moving soon.<br />

Then again, whoa, they have to live in a new house every 3 years!! (Omg) <div><br></div><div>I recently met a lady who has tons of ancient asain pieces and although she is great fly of her pieces she is really modern at heart!

Client dining room sneak peak...First things first I have to apologize, it has been a long time since I've posted. But being a very busy mom during the summer...well that pretty much says it all. However I have actually just finished up a gorgeous dining room. <div><br></div><div>This couple have been such a pleasure by far to work with. They were willing to a little outside of their comfort zone. (And you should have seen the look on their face when I told them they needed 2 chandeliers). The rest of their house they have done very well but were just stumped when it came to the dining room. They had already purchased the Restoration Hardware monastery table and ordered all matching grey velvet chairs including arm chairs for the ends. I am definitely a fan of different head chairs. </div><div><br></div><div>So we were off and running. My client and I were searching Craigslist for days for just the right arm chairs that I could customize from my great upholsterer. So he found some (from another designer...still need to send her the redo). I found a really cool modern fabric in teal and navy diamond pattern that we could tie in with the gray velvet. It worked perfectly! </div><div><br></div><div>I then had to convince the homeowner to move his audio control system so we could add some drama to that main wall. Luckily it went off with out a hitch and I found these beautiful sconces. And how can you not pick your jaw up off the floor with those TWO gorgeous chandeliers! They were way out of their comfort zone but now wouldn't change a thing.

This project needed a lot of that. This project had an original budget of $5000...not bad you say but that was for 2!! She also wanted a full gut job with new cabinets, granite, lights, tile, faucets...you get my drift. <br />
<br />
Well it was definitely one of the toughest jobs I've done but managed to pull it off (yes I went over budget). We did have to increase the budget and the client was able to get good quality materials that will last another 20 years!<br />

Master Vanity After She wanted a very clean streamlined slightly modern look. I tripled her storage with this semi custom cabinet vanity from Home Depot. Replaced the light fixture with this $290 knock off of a George Kovac light for only $59. Kept the existing towel rod. Replaced the 1980's mirror wall with a more appropriate magnifying mirror per the clients 2nd biggest need for this space and gave her a new medicine cabinet. </div>

Going with the whole pale Greige craze will look amazing the buttery cream we have now is not bad but it's time to update the kitchen paint so might as well make it even all around.

Although Revere Pewter(bottom) is the top choice these days it's just too purple looking in my walls. It's amazing how paint changes in every light.

Problem is that just last week it was 55, can a girl get a little in between here?!?<br />
<br />
With the humidity, and just after finishing up a sun room for a client, I am so ready for our annual Florida vacation. We've been going to the quiet but gorgeous golf of Mexico beaches in Sarasota, FL for about 10 years now. Just recently in the past few years the near by public beach of Siesta Key, FL has been #1 beach in America and people are flocking to the gorgeous white sand beach. <br />
<br />
Not only are the beaches gorgeous but I love Florida architecture. There is such a mix of modern and Mediterranean there that I get he best of both worlds! Can't wait for our trip.<br />

She still has a few more accessories to go. But it's looking good so far!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
She's from New Orleans so the typical Florida room, or depending on your area, sunroom looks was not her thing. She has 10 year old twin boys, a teenage daughter, and a husband that drips coffee (everywhere according to her), and two puppies. White was out of the question!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm a huge fan of little pops of black, especially with kids! It's so much more stress free. We used a few of her existing pieces in order to stick within the budget and found some good knock off pieces as well. We are still waiting on the cherry bamboo blinds to come in for the bay window. As well as on the look out for the perfect bistro table. We mixed in some more French quarter accents in the kitchen and configured an awkward space in the kitchen to accommodate a more comfortable eat-in breakfast area with room for 6 total chairs.</div>

Hopefully you all are enjoying beautiful weather and kicking off the first unofficial day of summer. Here are my picks of a few accent chairs in patriotic colors, with pink being my choice in the red family.

She does have quite a few around the house but feels like she doesn't have a green thumb at all. While many people out there have faux flowers in general I give it a thumbs down ....with a few exceptions!

Tulips do not bloom in December so why have that flower around? Stick to objects of nature that are around all the time such as branches, ( but not with lights on unless decorating for Halloween or Christmas, just like outside) moss balls, maybe even an aloe plant. The one exception I find is a GOOD quality orchid. Lets face it those beauties are finicky! They are around all year and work with every decor.

But excited to say that it has led to another project! We have been contemplating going darker on our hardwood floors for quite a while. Now that I have seen the stairs I'm ready to do the whole thing! <br />
<br />
For the cost of restaining the floors and me tackling the stairs myself, the project will come way under what my first scary estimate was just to put hardwood on the stairs to begin with. By doing this way we are getting the best of both worlds! <br />
<br />
Now it's color choice time.....<br />
<br />
Deciding between dark walnut, Jacobean, and (waiting on color sample for) coffee brown. All by Dura seal.<br />
<br />
On my stairs I have been playing around with a combination of paint and stain. The chocolate brown on the first step is just paint. I just used a random can of Behr Sweet Molasses I had from another project. The second step is half black and brown paint, and on the right side I top coated with a little Jacobean stain.

<br />
World market has always been a place for budget savvy home owners and designers alike to pick up some fabulous pieces that save a ton of money. Here are just a few of my are picks from World Market nothing over $250!<br />
<br />
It's friends and family weekend too for those World Market Members!<br />
<br />
Happy shopping!<br />

I have been rather busy, with a few things. My sons baseball season under way, daughters gymnastics, and planning a friends baby shower. So not much design has been going on lately. Except prepping myself for 2 consultations this week!(yay)<br />
<br />
But my ultra modern mom-to-be friend Yaztka wanted her baby shower to be just barely "baby" enough! So here's what I came up with for her little man.<br />
<br />
