  • The armoire in the corner is from the 1800's...I love the burl wood and will not be painting it.
  • I've thought a slipcover on the chair would lighten up this corner of the room. 1
  • The t.v. wall across from the couch.  

I plan to upholster the coffee table to create a tufted ottoman. 

I've add more pictures to the gallery wall and am changing the drawer handles on the dresser.  Reveal to come soon!

    Your livingroom is a mix of classics both masculine and feminine. However, the majority of the ...»
    furniture is more masculine. The coffee table is one of the feminine pieces with the curves so if it were to be made into an ottoman, I would maintain the curves and cover it in a feminine pattern similiar to the Ikat pattern seen in the chair pillow and tuft it like the chair. This would maintain its feminine nature as well as make the tufted chair not stand alone as much. However, I like the coffee table as a table since you already have an ottoman. I think I would see how it looks to switch the placement of the two chairs to bring brightness to the corner. As for the mantel, it needs to have the green apples grouped if not removed. The mantel needs to have the colors from the pillows brought to it with some height. I hope that this helps.

  • Window treatments provide a great opportunity to add color, texture and pattern to your room.
  • Whether you're sewing the curtains yourself or buying them, you want a drape that is well constructed.  

Flimsy curtains detract from a room.
  • Decide ahead of time if you want the drapes to puddle or  stop just short of the floor.

I love the little number tags that I'm seeing in home decor lately. I recently got my own set and have had fun decorating with them. Here are several ideas for decorating with numbers: http://www.mrshinesclass.com/2013/06/10/deco...

    It would be cute to place the vase on a front porch with the address numbers of the house.

  • I'm always on the search for how I can get the decorator look for less.  So, it made sense to try my hand at recreating the boxwood wreath that I have been admiring for some time.
  • A boxwood wreath topiary is easy and inexpensive to make.  You can leave it natural or preserve it.
  • In this video, I demonstrate how to make your own boxwood wreath and share a few ideas of how to incorporate it into your home decor.

I find nature very calming and try to incorporate natural elements in my home decor. Preserved Boxwood Wreaths fit the bill, but can be expensive. Today, I'm making my own Boxwood Wreath; ...»
