Robin's Favorite Find


Love this brilliant turquoise lamp with subtle textured glass pattern…Will be the perfect addition  to our client’s guest room which is in desperate need of a splash of color!  Found the ultimate crisp white drum shade to top it off.   Look for Ann’s future post about our newest favorite pop of color-turquoise.


Tiered Wooden Servers

Tiered Wooden Servers


These smart, tiered servers are made of bleached wood + will be great for another client’s kitchen island. Wonderful focal point or right serving piece for party appetizers. We love to find unusual accessories for entertaining that add height to a tablescape…

New Year, New Look

Maddie's Room After



With each new year comes the desire for fresh changes. What a great time to move some furniture around, update your accessories and give a new lease on life to a tired room. My daughter, Maddie, recently moved into her own room from sharing bunk beds with little brother Cooper (not so cool for an 11 year old girl!).

We started with this existing setup -– plain Jane –- and made some clever, inexpensive changes to give some pop.

Amy Butler's Clever Decorative Papers


The inspiration and color palette came from a book of decorative papers and coordinating fabrics designed by one of our fave designers, Amy Butler. Check out Amy’s website, it’s amazing!

Papers were found at Michael’s and fabric (for 20 inch square pillows) online at Crafty Planet. We now have CityCraft here in Dallas. They carry Amy’s fabrics as well.

IKEA And Target Bargain Finds


Next, I framed the papers with inexpensive frames from IKEA. Cheap art that gives a bit of a modern touch! I also added lamps from IKEA and mirrored side tables from Target to flank each side. Fabric, frames, side tables and lamps all for $300. Wow! Clever design doesn’t discriminate –- you just need to be a sleuth for good buys.
