A place to relax

I am done and so tired, but I have found that I am always willing to be tired for a restyle. I finished the house, my customer and love it.  She is excited actually, which is amazing, because sometimes change is hard for a person's personal space. 

Upon getting started, I first centered the sectional sofa, my next task  was to filter out, and get rid of at least one table from the living room. I have often found that people have too many tables in their living rooms. They go out and buy the “sets” at the furniture stores that they think they need. I like to re purpose something to use in place of a table, like a round plant holder, or a small trunk, or even stack some books , as long as you can set a drink down,  that’s all you really need sometimes.

Then we went "shopping" in her home to see what we could use in her living room. We found some great items that were hidden in closets, and other items that were not being utilized their best potential.

The next thing I did was move two matching chairs  nearer to each other, next to the French doors for some balance. (That was when it was really starting to look good!)
Then I found an off-white ottoman in the spare bedroom which was a perfect coffee table for the space. I placed it in front of her little, curved sectional. 

After looking around, I realized I had all of the major pieces of furniture where they needed to go. So now, it’s my favorite part of the redo: Placing the accessories!


I love pillows, vases, pictures, lamps, art, and curtains, because what a magnificent change they make if placed correctly.

Now, her home looks styled, comfortable, and is definitely more functional. The project took a little longer than I thought, but I always stay until it's complete. Then she made me a cup of tea, and we just enjoyed the new space.

I have posted the pictures so you can see for yourself. Please feel free to leave comments to let me know what you think.

    A little about me...


    I can't wait to try new things, but when it comes to decorating;I am willing to jump head first. I love to see a room transform before my very eyes. Especially when creating a new room for someone else! Since as long as I can remember, the fire has been burning to
    create I have  been the person that people call when they move to a new home, and don't know what to do with their "stuff" 
    Or, just simply want a new look for a room that they have lived with for too long. 
    I am always happy to when those calls come. In fact,  I wouldn't have it any other way!
