AKD Progress: My House

I’m finally making some serious progress at our house. I am absolutely my own worst client. A nightmare. I cannot make decisions. I am reupholstering chairs and changed my mind on the fabric at least 5 times. But there has finally been some serious progress.

I found these kilim and chrome benches at a local vintage shop and immediately fell in love. They are perfect for my living room.

I also looked through a bunch of options of carpet for our stairs. This has been something I’ve been putting it off forever but I finally found the perfect option. Its one of these three…

I also did a little restyling and rearranging for our bookshelves but I’m not sure that will ever stop

I also hung some art. That is always the final step to really making a space feel complete. My little Picasso lady and Sally King Benedict look so perfect stacked together. I also love the way the curtains frame the art.

And although not much has changed in there, I am still so smitten with our powder room Lindsay Cowles paper.

I can’t wait to share more of the completed space. The rug, newly upholstered chairs, pillows and console are all going to be here within the next couple weeks. Serious living room progress.

AKD Project Reveal

Last week I shared a little peek of a recently completed project, but today I’m going to share the whole thing. I worked with this client on their living room, dining room, entry and two bedrooms. We installed all new window treatments, had custom window benches made, a custom media console, and brought in a ton of accessories but also worked with some existing pieces (ie the sofa, dining table and art). It was such a fun project that completely pushed me outside of my colorful, glam, feminine box. We went more neutral, sexy and zen in this space and I absolutely love the outcome.
