Interior design Style Tips

As a mom, I understand putting your needs second to your families. So when my client reached out to me about updating her master bathroom, I immediately wanted to give her everything she wanted! She had lived with this builder grade bathroom for years, and now that her children are grown and out of the house it was finally time to do something nice for her.

Moving into a new home is exciting, but it can also be frustrating! Where do you put all your furniture into your new space and how do you make it your own? This is exactly what my new clients were dealing with when they moved into their new house. We turned an awkward space and made it into the grown up/kid friendly space my clients were wanting!

A few weeks ago I was able to take a quick trip to Atlanta to go to market and check out the latest in accessories for your home. I thought it would be fun to give you a look into what’s trending in home accessories and a little sneak peek into what’s going to be big in Christmas decorations this year!

Did you know that mudrooms/laundry rooms are now being called “disinfection stations”? Sounds a little clinical to me, so I’m just going to keep calling it a laundry room. And your laundry room is the hardest working room in your house.Whether you live in the Mississippi Gulf Coast like me and deal with sand everywhere, or you're up north dealing with snow, most laundry rooms need to serve several functions. It’s a landing zone for when you come into the house for shoes, purses, keys, backpacks, and all the things!

When my clients reached out to me, they were looking to update their kitchen. Their house was divided into three closed off formal living areas and wanted to see what was possible. When I walked into the space, I immediately knew we could open it up to create one large entertaining and family hang out space. This would allow them to host friends and have the large family gatherings she was dreaming about!

Since we are ending the end of the year, I thought I would take some time and answer your questions! I get questions from people all the time so today I am answering them for you. Everything from "do you do (insert service)" to "when should I call you if I want this done by (insert holiday)"

If you’ve read my blog for any amount of time, you know that I don’t really like to do what’s “trendy”. Trends come and go, so to me, it’s more important to be true to who you are! (more on authenticity later) With that said, I did see five design trends that are still going strong in the design world.

When my clients asked me to come in and help them update their house I knew the change was going to be dramatic. They hadn’t done any renovations since Hurricane Katrina, and it was time.

When looking for outdoor furniture that will stand up to wind, rain, humidity, and salt air, you need to look for furniture that is made out of teak or resin. Teak is a natural substance and resin is a durable man-made plastic.
