Apple green and navy upholstery add jolts of color inspired by a glass vase collection. Paired shelves make the fireplace stand out.

Painting windowsills white is a classic decorating trick -- it makes the windows seem bigger and brighter. Notice, too, that the scale of the lamps matches the sloped ceiling (the lamp on the right is taller), and that the pictures are hung at different heights, as well. The colorful rugs and warm gray walls make the small room feel cozy, not oppressive.

White paint, along with low, simple furnishings, opens up a space. Transparent furniture, like the 70's bubble chair hanging by the window, doesn't obstruct the view. Photo by Francesco Lagnese, Domino, May 07.
They look like real wood, but they're actually plastic -- and weigh only 16 pounds each. The homeowner painted the beams with two tones of gray paint to lend them a time-weathered authenticity. Other updates to the room: new pillows, a new lamp, and a cleaned-up mantle.

Since I have been so busy for the past few weeks, my sister and I didn't have much footage for our dolly vlogs. Therefore some of the clips in this video are a little bit older, and span a longer period of time. I hope you enjoy this video anyways--it was a lot of fun to film, and I look forward to having a bit more time for videos in the near future.

In a quest for more light, this architect home-owner tore out the dark fireplace and replaced it with a white-painted poplar surround and slate hearth, which led the way for the entire room's palette. Photo by Paul Costello, Domino, Oct. 2006.
...in my zen-like tranquility!
These are my new red frames I got for my birthday, as the purple ones I had didn't end up working out.
Special Spaces of Phoenix first project! Volunteers made 7 year old Nicklas, who has osteosarcoma, a special bedroom that is a very happy place! Nicklas was a happy little boy. His family was eating at the fire station while volunteers stopped from making finishing touches on three rooms inside to take a group pjoto. Most are members of the same chapter of BNI, a professional networking organization. www.facebook.com/BiltMOREPower

I was asked by the good folks at HGTV to make a piece for the show “Meg’s Great Rooms.” They were giving a makeover to a home and wanted to bring a little nature indoors. It’s a waterfall featuring ginkgo leaves and a few dragonflies for an added bit of whimsy. When I showed it to Meg she cried. I’m gonna assume they were tears of joy!

In the middle window there are my Indian wedding bells I bought on a trip to California to visit my dad a few years back.
I am hoping they will bless our marital bed with much more bliss.

The client needed additional sleeping space - this was a bit of a challenge because of the size of the space. NOLA Clutter Busters found furniture to fit the space, these small and cute coffee tables add a bit of style to the small space!
