Hello Everyone!

About Me

I am a stay at home mom of two super cool kids. I have a background in art history and love all things art/design related. I have been doing upcycled crafts and wedding photography for a few years but my real passion has always been interior decorating and restoring-repurposing furniture. I've had a lot of friends ask me to help with rooms in their homes so I have been dipping my feet in the decorating pool and really loving it. Hoping to direct my career toward this new path in the next few years!

Eclectic "farmhouse" dining room, I have been begging my husband to buy an antique farm table for as long as we've been married. I finally found one I loved at a local antique market and he begrudgingly agreed. The space is pretty small but it has a great window that lets in a lot of light. As of now I am not going to hang any window coverings. I like it simple and non-fussy.. I love the dark grey-brown of our wall contrasted with the white trim. We had the hutch in the kitchen of our old house. It was one of my very favorite pieces but we couldn't find a place for it until we got the new table which is much more narrow that the old one. I still need to hang some more art work on the walls...and like most other rooms in the house, need to change the lighting...some kind of contemporary pendants above the table where the recessed lights are now..thanks for looking. , Dining Rooms Design

Small family room , This room has been a challenge for us in our new house. We had a very spacious family room in our old house but gave that up when we moved here about 6 months ago. This room opens up to the kitchen (which is something I thought I'd hate..i know that sounds crazy!! but I do like it now). Ultimately our plan for this space is to turn this room into a dining space for the kitchen (since we have no real eat in space for a kitchen table) and add a great room where the current dining room is, but thats about three years off. So we are living in what it is now. I know the furniture isn't the best but it will be moving soon into our basement and we will be getting some new pieces. When we first moved in our plan was to remove the wood stove and drywall over the brick and remove the brick hearth to give us more space. One day (when my hubby was at work) I painted the brick white and we've kinda grown to love the stove and the character it adds to the space, especially centered between the builtins. I added wallpaper to the built ins to add some visual interest and we replaced the ceiling fan with a drum light and we painted over all traces of red painted trim and molding in the room!!, Living Rooms Design
