One Room Challenge Week 4
OK, now it's going too fast for me! If you missed week 1, week 2 or week 3 - check them out! I'm disappointed to say I don't have anything exciting to show this week. The biggest change is the new windows. It is so much brighter and fresher now in this room! It's amazing how much light can change a space. Below is the before: My painters pushed us back to Friday, which stinks because I will be on my way to New York City with some girlfriends. So, I will have to wait until Sunday to make

Wallpaper and a Little This and That
Happy Friday, y'all! I cannot wait for the weekend!! There's a lot of work happening around the house, I have to show property, but I also want to enjoy some sunshine and fun like my little man here. Today, wallpaper is being installed, and I cannot stand the anticipation. I keep walking down the hall and checking every 5 minutes to get a glance. Yes, I need to go to the coffee shop a couple of doors down to get out of the way of my wallpaper hanger. (Is that what they are called?) I better Google that
One Room Challenge Linking Participant – Week 2

Spot On – My Spotted Print Fabric Obsession
I know you've seen this style all over the place lately as it's not new. But, it's still fabulous, and I, along with many others, love spotted fabric. Some call it dalmatian (for obvious reasons), while others simply refer to it as "spots". No matter the name, I have been on a mad search for it! I need this printed fabric for two items: My One Room Challenge and a fantastic settee that I need to re-upholster for a client. I keep going back to these images for my inspiration because I love the look of the spots as they
One Room Challenge with Krystine Edwards Design
I was perusing Instagram when this One Room Challenge logo popped up in my feed. I was immediately curious about it and had to learn more because my love of decorating and challenges goes hand-in-hand. Did you see my last designer's showcase challenge? As I began to read, I noticed there was an option to join and link-in with other designers. And, so my new challenge begins! I have six weeks to complete a room, and I must update my readers weekly with my progress. I needed this motivation as we are in the middle of adding a bathroom to this
“Color Pop” Designer Showcase
Last weekend I was honored to participate in the Daniel Island Life Designer Showcase Challenge at Lyndon Leigh. It was a true blast! I'm not usually tasked with decorating an entire space with an unlimited budget, and, boy was it so much fun!! Their store is stocked with some gorgeous keepsakes and wonderful trendy pops of flair. Perhaps that is what inspired me to focus on a black/white theme with "Color Pops". I loved running into some of my favorite Charleston people. Here's Chassity Evans from Look Linger Love and Katherine McDonald - famous LulaKate designer. If you didn't get a
My Designer Showcase at Lyndon Leigh This Saturday!
I was so honored when Lyndon Leigh asked me to participate in Daniel Island Life's Designer's Challenge. Lyndon Leigh - which just happens to be one of my favorite home stores - will be hosting the event tomorrow night, March 29. Five interior designers were asked to create an interesting space using furniture and accents from the store. I chose to go with a "Color Pop" theme as it really represents my clean and simple style. I started with many black/white pieces - rug, console, lamps - and complimented them with bright pops of color. I am really into pinks,
Great Accessories Under $50 from Global Views
I'm down to the final stages on some projects, and all that remains are some great accessories. As I peruse all of my vendors sights, I could not help but get a little excited about Global Views. I'm about to place a big order to fill my retail space with some of these fabulous items, and many of them retail for under $50! LOVE these Ocean bottles! The color and the gold detail are amazing. The keyhole silver vases are simple, but stunning! The Wooster Street Platter is a must. Love this little sea star vases, which come in gold, silver and
