This room used to be a Bathroom but we've opened up the wall and are in the process of turning it into what we call a "reading room". Complete with a daybed and TONS of pillows! :-

When i found out I was having a boy i knew it would be quite interesting to figure out how to REALLY decorate it with my flair...I had so much fun with it and am so happy with the way it turned out. I used so many textures( suede curtains cowhide rug and a real wood fence behind the clock and even used my desk from my childhood as his changing table (after decoupaging painting and antiqueing it of course..lol. Everything is customized all the bedding down to the lamp and table. Enjoy!

Just painted the exterior of our home, before it was white, now it is a warm inviting color, "Fig." We also added new shrubs and hydrangeas. We also got a new wood front door and garage doors.

You have to really see the "before" to truly appreciate our kitchen now. It was UGLY! Now we have stacked cabinetry that draws the eye to the peak of the cathedral ceilings with soft cream-colored raised-panel doors and a classic beaded inset frame featuring magnificent molding flutes columns pilasters keys and corbels. This is our dream kitchen and we researched for over a year to find the "right fit" of a contractor and designer to make our vision a reality. They nailed it!

We had to completely rebuild our front porch. The floor is mahogany wood stained. The ceiling and columns are original except for the bases of the columns which were rotted. Notice the columns are a larger scale version of the columns in the foyer. Thanks for looking!

We're not blessed with a huge master bedroom so we've been forced to keep things simple. We'd love some ideas for the back wall (chair/dresser wall to help finish our update. The furniture is a dark-stained Amish-built set, the bedding is from JCP the rust wall is Dutch Boy "Brick Oven", the cream walls are Dutch Boy "Fresh Linen" and the flooring is beech. The large pictures are from a local art show (can provide artist with the small pictures purchased on the street in NYC. Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

After years of using a ratty old borrowed dining room set, I came across a bargain. The dining table, 4 side chairs and 2 arm chairs for $90.00!! After hours and hours sanding and refinishing I'm thrilled with the results. Finally we have our own dining room set! See the before and after pics.

Our little girls room has brown damask wallpaper, picture frame moulding, crown moulding and a pink ceiling. The picture frame moulding has pink inside as well. The damask and polka dot bedding is from Serena & Lily. We used our sons nursery furniture but painted it white.

This is our...well technically Molly the bunny's sunroom. This is where she spends her days. We let her loose when we are home to watch her and the dogs are on the deck. She loves to lay on top of the air conditioning vents and to sit on the sofa to look out on her kingdom. Okay enough of Molly. The quilt on the wall was a yard sale find for $3.00. The hoosier I have had for almost 20 years and was purchased at auction. It houses our stereo.

This column is in the center of our lakehouse. Three pocket doors meet to form a "T". This divides the dining room from the front parlor and then both rooms from the center hallway

I'm blessed with a rather large garage top deck for the City of Chicago. Unfortunately, it's in an alley of electrical wires, parked cars, garbage cans and lots of neighbors across the way. So for phase #1 of designing my oasis in the city I blocked as much of the bad as I could and created a little visual interest with walls and a pergola and some fun lighting for evening get togethers. And I did the best I could to "frame the sky!" I will save money over the winter to do phase two of the project including a hot tub under the pergola, a fire pit, new furniture, a water feature and plants. Phase three of the project (outdoor kitchen will come at a future date (unless I win the lotto sooner!!

Our new daughters room was a plain white box. We added the pine boards to the bottom of the walls to add some character and painted the top half apple green. Pink was used as an accent color. This room was done on a budget. I made the bedding and wall art. The crib is a yard sale find we painted.
