Last week I gave you a little preview of this project which I installed on Wednesday.
I spent all day today returning what I didn't use. About as fun as a sharp stick in the eye.
I have to "over buy" and sometimes when I start the process I will get something and then see something I like better…..of course.
Lord knows I don't want to be out in left field without a glove right?
No worries because I have learned that it is better to have too much than not enough.
Kind of like shoes:)
This was more pulling together that a major overhaul. She had the furniture but needed help putting the finishing touches on the room. The best part....no rules. Yep another easy client. Am I lucky or what.
Before
Lets start with this view first. This is the RH sofa that is deep….deep like a twin bed. Great for TV watching but it needed more pillows to sit comfortably. I brought over some pillow forms so we could decide what it would take to make it more comfy. This sofa has very horizontal lines and the existing pillows weren't helping. Plus I think it needed some pattern.
Call me crazy.
Just to review..... here are the fabrics
OK...I had many request for the name of the floral fabric so here it is....Designers Guild color/Seraphina.
You likey? Let's talk this over.
I added the white vases on the console to lighten that area up. Softened it with some patterned pillows and accessorized the coffee table.
I also moved the sofa up closer to the edge of the rug. It looked like it was off the grid and since all the other furniture was on the rug why make the sofa look like an outcast right? Bad sofa....stay in your own corner.
The large mirrored tray was already there. I picked up the books at a thrift store, black glass beads from Scott's, and the rest of the accessories came from Target, World Market, and HomeGoods.
My favorite thing is the small wooden bowl with the purple stones [owners] in it.
A few more after shots
Before
After
I accessorized the white vases [from Crate and Barrel and Target] with Forsythia branches and tulips.
Before
She had already ordered 2 new chairs from Room and Board to replace these when we met and I suggested she add more panels from Ikea to beef up the curtains. I think there are now 2 panels on the sides and 2 in the middle.
The taller chairs and Ikea floor lamp [previously in another area] helped add some much needed height to this space. I also pulled out the shorter nesting table [I believe these are from Ikea] to give it more volume .
This low vase came from Target and I got the succulents from Kroger. The candlesticks were from her collection.
You will have to come back on Monday if you want to see the rest of this makeover. And "mean Sherry" makes another appearance.
Some news here.....Thanks to Lisa my ORC is being published! The photo shoot is next week and I'm so excited:)
Have a smashing weekend!
