Two little princesses started with a plain light gray room. With the purchase of new bunk beds & new polka dot bedding, we needed something girly to jazz up the new space. We taped off horizontal stripes to coordinate, and the attached bath uses polka dots in the coordinating colors and the same princess theme. It uses bubble gum pink, lime green, light teal/turquoise, and tan/khaki. The wall of baskets was pricey but is invaluable storage for toys and such. The whole project was kid-friendly and fun and on a budget.

Finally we have our beautiful cedar deck completed. It really adds to our home by offering us extended living space directly accessed through the double french doors both in the kitchen and the dining room. We wanted to create a space that welcomed visitors as well as brought back memories of two of our favorite destinations, Sardinia, Italy and South Beach. We are thrilled with the results and have already had the opportunity to host friends here.

My mother and I decorated my son's nursery. We considered hiring a decorator but are very pleased with how it turned out even though we did everything ourselves. I used easy, inexpensive things to accessorize with and even added some accessories with personal history. The teddy bear on the hutch and the white baby shoes in the box shelf were both my husbands when he was a baby.

I love Pottery Barn and Z Gallerie style, but our kitchen just looks bland. About the only spice in here comes from the cooking (and that can even be tasteless at times.

We used mexican tapestries as the inspiration for our baby's room. We started decorating before we knew the sex and thought that the textiles offered a gender neutral starting palate. We focused on turquoise (when we found out we were having a boy, lime green and orange as our main colors and have a white rug that we haven't put down yet.

Our dining room has a picasiette mosaic table that took me 4+ yrs to create. We need to paint the walls and add accessories, wall art, and maybe a plant.

Included downstairs is a tiny half bath. Inspired by the lily pond water color my mom bought for me years ago the bathroom became a reflection of the pond. This venetian plaster treatment is an amazing combination of aqua green yellow and blue that just envelopes you in a restful relazing and amazing space. Aqua glass tiles new fixtures and medicine cabinet and a modern light complete the transformation and allow this room to flow with the colors in the rest of the downstairs.

After 15 years with the same tree I started completely over this year and went with a pre-lit tree with turquoise blue and lime green decorations. I then decided to add the peacock feathers and put it on a turning stand. I also chose peacock blue wrapping paper and lime green wire ribbon for the packages. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out and I don't think the pictures really do it justice. I plan on adding more next year along with a skirt. I'm welcome to any ideas.

Jackson's nursery is a bright and colorful combination of turquoise blue, apple green, chocolate brown and white. The mix and match of paisley, polka dot and stripes gives a custom look without being stuck with a theme. I used a lot of monkeys in the room as accessories because before we picked out a name for our son, we called him "Monkey." Not having themed bedding and other big ticket items gives us the flexibility to change accessories once our taste, and eventually Jackson's taste changes. The bright colors lean toward contemporary, while the cherry furniture is in keeping with a more traditional look. The personalized wall letters with matching ribbon create a cute yet inexpensive focal point. I had so much fun putting his room together. Hope you like it, and if you have any suggestions or comments, I'd love to hear from you! Happy Decorating!

I went with a beach coastal feel in my family room. Built in bookcases, DIY dogbed, black and white frames and beach accents give a layered feel to this room.
