Brush with the Famous


Occasionally I stumble into clients that are kinda famous. This last year I was able to help Heather Armstrong with a few pieces for her lovely home up in Federal Heights area. Heather has one of the most read blogs in the country.  I  really liked her a lot.  Her hilarious blog. http://dooce.com/daily-style is pretty fun. I'd like to say I did the design but honestly she already has a great sense of style so it was just fun to collaborate with her.


   We designed 2 of these Giselle chairs for the family room



Cute Shaw Chair  from the floor sample Clearance sale

Heather's Daughter on the Emerson Chair with wicked cool Ikat fabric



Anthrpology meets Susie's Poco dots

Cute chair  a paired with white bookcase for storage of games and display for the cookbook collection.

 I Know  design this is a little on the unusual side, a little cutesy for most ...but  given the parameters of the project I am very proud of it.



 Criteria for Project
1. Create space for Susies large cookbook collection.

2. Find a spot for Davids restored Antique coke Machine

3  Hidden storage for grand kids games and toys
4. Susie wanted a room reminiscent of the dragonfly room in Gilmore girls

Susie's inspiration room, Dragon fly room from Gilmore Girls

5. Weird  basement transom windows


BEFORE:  notice the windows...especially the beam in the middle of the one on the left...ugg


6. Colors needed in include Yellow (Susies favorite) red ( to pull in coke machine ) and a poco dot and gingham prints that were "must haves" for Susie (without it looking like a room for Mini Mouse house at
Disneyland)


Completed room with the details Susie wanted. Check out the windows. No more basement transom look. Yep Awesome!!
