THIS AND THAT

Y'all are the sweetest.  So many comforting comments about Cami.....and just so you know I have an appointment with the specialist on Wednesday.

I'm trying to stay positive:)

Last week while I was out shopping for clients I posted about fabrics and Ballard Designs.

That day continued with visits to World Market and Bed Bath & Beyond....

I saw these gorgeous pale pink dishes at WM....

And these headboards.....

The price is definitely right!

Bed Bath & Beyond is right next door.  It seems like I  am constantly looking for throws, pillows and bedding [life of a designer] and I sometimes forget about some of the good stuff they have!

This pretty linen [down insert] hummingbird pillow had me standing there thinking "somebody needs this"!

Of course I looked online for it and found a thousand other pillows [but not that one!]

I typed in down inserts in my search so some of these are a great deal when you factor that in.  And there is that 20% coupon always hanging around.

I love when I receive fabric samples in the mail....

Studio B is a line of hand printed fabrics....

And last.....

This months Atlanta Magazine featured Michael Ladisics Guest house which I was I decorated!

Loving the iron garage door right?

You know it's hell getting old....yesterday I obliterated a small piece of lint on the floor disguised as a spider.....and when I got a closer look I thought well....whatever....it's dead.

BOULDER #FIELDCOURT BEFORE AND AFTER PART 2

Kitchens.....the hub of the home.  Probably the one space that can help sell a house right?  So it makes sense that you would invest the most thought [and probably money]  in this part of a remodel.

Some facts we considered when designing this kitchen.  

**Once we took the closet wall down it would be visible from the foyer.....

**Adding the black and white cement tile created the WOW factor!

**Open up the space [taking part of the wall down] for easy entertaining.

**Creating hubs....butlers pantry and prep station.....to allow for more "cooks" in the kitchen.

Here is the original real estate shot when the house was on the market.

Before

Such a light bright space....

Most are real estate shots as I left before it was totally finished.  You know I am not happy about that!

After

The awesome backsplash from  Cement Tile Shop!

Before

After

Here you can the wall was opened up and the fridge was moved to make room for a small butlers pantry.

After

The prep station has a butcher block top and a place to put pots and pans......only pretty ones:)

Using my favorite Grohe faucet!

To help warm up the space the island was wrapped in white pine...

We were influenced by the fact that easier entertaining could be managed by not putting a sink or cooktop in the island.

This shows the small dining area in reference to the kitchen...

Moving on....the hall bath

After

And my cheap DIY art....

Ikea frame and pretty paper!

This is the bonus room over the garage...

The back hallway leading up to the bonus room. Kind of digging how this Cole and Sons tree wallpaper looks in this space!

Real Estate shot.   And those lights were turned horizontally after these shots:)

Small powder room where you see the wallpaper sample.....

It wasn't finished but love this Schumacher wallpaper.....you can see the black and white theme throughout!

And to the left of this bathroom is a TV/Den
Sectional and coffee table from World Market, chair and floor lamp from Target

I just got a hold of some after outside pictures from the listing.

This is before landscaping but first coat of paint.

The color is BM Wrought Iron.....it looks green in some shots

So glad we decided to paint the entrance white!

Back yard before

After

This house is right on the golf course!

And...that is a wrap.  

Things to remember.  Really only 2 walls [kitchen and foyer] were removed in the whole house!  It was pretty much cosmetic with most of the labor concentrated in the kitchen and master bath. 

It's officially for sale now.  By the way the house I went out there to stage a few weeks ago sold already!  It's a hot market in Boulder.

What are y'all up to this weekend?  I've got 2 deliveries today and then I plan on hitting the booze pretty hard after that..... hee haw
