ALL GIRL

Wendy had the pleasure of designing a young teen girls room back in May. To see the room you may think, "Wow that is a whole lotta pink!", but if you knew this sweet child, you would totally understand why Wendy went  ALL GIRL on this one. The room was put together in seriously, 2 days. Shopping on day 1 and the install came the next day. Big thanks to A Wise Move for their heavy lifting, and to Stephen Dickerson for making the window panels in less than 48 hours!!

Like the Pink ceiling? We are beginning to see more and more bold colors on horizontal services here lately! 



Here is another Pink ceiling from Tineke Triggs...it is our month of pink after all!

Think Pink

June is here and by no means did it take its time arriving! Our color for this month is PINK. What shade do you think of when you "think pink'? Do you think subtle, sweet, calming shades, or do you think bright, glam, rocker girl pink? That's what we love about this color-it can take on such different personalities. Take a look and see which shade of pink you react to more.
 Maybe you will discover the rocker chick you never knew you had inside :)



To feed your sweeter side:





look at that floor!





Pinks on the brighter side:

Talk about HOT pink!

Mellow Yellow

Well hello May, when did you get here?!
We have noticed a rise in popularity with all shades of yellow over the last couple of months and we LOVE IT. Yellow is so bright and cheerful-how can it not put you in a great mood? 

See below for an instant uplift.

Plum Perfect Pad

One of our most recent jobs was to tackle a dated attic space turned bedroom. The client is a Dad to the sweetest girl, so naturally he wanted to give her a space where friends could come over, hangout, watch tv and then spend the night! We asked Slate Barganier if they would come in and handle the construction, and they did a fantastic job!
Because it was an attic, there were 5 dormer windows, which meant awkward ceiling heights and angles... Oh, joy! We pushed out 2 of the 5 to create more room and eliminate a narrow hall. The third, we turned window seat and added sconce lighting for a great reading area. A vanity and desk were added in the last 2...no wasted space in this project! All the windows were treated with roman shades created by the one and only Stephen Dickerson.

This project ultimately has 4 rooms: bathroom, bedroom, daybed alcove, and tv lounge.
Take a look!
