Living room opens to the dining room and we added sliding door out to our new deck. Only good part of house when we first bought it was the bluestone fireplace which we haven't changed. Purchased new sofa and loveseat along with the tables. Tables are large but with the open bottom I think they still seem airy. I have since changed out the throw pillows to a solid olive green which pops more against the camel colored furniture.

We are huge film buffs and host an annual Oscar party so we decided to make our Master Bedroom into a Hollywood glamour theme with a contemporary twist.

This room was off white before I started this project. Now it is a comfortable and restful space for family and friends to enjoy. I have filled it with many yard sale and thrift store treasures. it also gave me a place for my childhood vanity and dresser.

When we found out we were expecting our first baby, my mind immediately went to work planning the nursery. After finding out we would be having a boy, I wanted to create a space that was "all boy." Since his daddy enjoys the outdoors, I decided to bring the outdoors in and create "The Little Man Cave" (as named by my husband. Antlers are very masculine, but when they are spray painted white, it creates a "softer" baby appropriate affect. The antlers were provided by my husband's father and the plaques were hand crafted by my father. I love that the whole family was involved with the nursery! I also knew that I wanted a gray and yellow color scheme, and since I couldn't find a bedroom set that I liked, I decided to try my hand at sewing my own. I think the quilt, bed skirt, and sheets turned out cute! :

We are due with our first baby in two weeks - and we are waiting oh-so-impatiently to find out if its a boy or a girl! Right now, we call the in utero baby "Bjorn" but that's not his/her final name. Just a good gender-neutral name to go with the good gender-neutral colors of green, tan and brown in this baby room!

It's a rental unit, and unfortunately I'm not allowed to paint the walls. So not to feel like a sterile environment I've used a lot of color (red, my favorite. It's taken me a long time to find night stands that I like, Finally found 2 chests of drawers and painted the carcasses white (originally a milk chocolate colored faux walnut so they wouldn't clash with the teak dresser. I also changed the legs and pulls to match the bed frame by spraying them a hammered steel. The artwork on the chests are my own.
