What I have been up to...

Last week was a busy week for me.  The renovation I have been preparing for since March finally started and I spent a lot of my time at the jobsite.  The job was supposed to be completed Saturday... that did not happen.  However, it will be completed in the next couple of days.  We had a few set backs at the beginning, as all projects do along the way, but now we are going along swimming...  (Literally, it has been raining cats and dogs here and is to continue through tomorrow.)  However, it is always such a wonderful experience to see your designs come to life!




Anywho, here is what I was up to last week.
This gorgeous little chair came in unexpectantly early for a client.  We ordered two of them with a sofa in the coordinating green for her living room.  This will be starting point for the rest of the room.  Chair is by Lexington Furniture Ocean Club Collection.


 For another client, we painted this wicker chair that started out a forest green a cream semi-gloss.  Paint Muslin by Benjamin Moore.




Bathroom and Kitchen Renovation:
Isn't this such a pretty hanging shade light from Uttermost?  It provides great texture and interest above the dining table.  On the right of the frame you can see where we need to drywall and paint.


Here are the matching pendants (unfortunately they are not on) above the long peninsula.  Old tile surrounded all the walls in the kitchen  from countertop to ceiling.  New tile is going only beneath the upper cabinets to the countertop. 


 This little beauty will be our new kitchen backsplash.  Green glass 2x4 mosaic.  This tile was one of our set backs at the beginning!




The Bathroom: This was what the bathtub wall looked like Friday.  Need to go back to take finished pictures!  Timeless white gloss subway tiles with glass and marble accents.




 I will take more pictures of the kitchen and bathrooms once they are completed.  We also selected new artwork for most of the condo and hung that Friday and selected new ceiling fans.  Those aren't very exciting so I will not bore you with pictures of that.  


Up next is a bedroom makeover that I have been receiving pieces here and there every week.  All of the custom bedding and drapes should arrive Friday then it will be installation time!  I will get to put the bedroom together while the client is off Island which will be exciting for them to walk into for the first time.  It will be like designing for television!  I will keep you posted.
