Now that demo is in full swing at our new house I am spending all of my free time trying to get things decided on and ordered. As I realized with this home, Spencer is a very opinionated “client”. We spent last night looking at mantles, tile, pendants and wallpaper. All things I never thought he cared about… all things he feels very strongly about.
Here are some of things we considered, decided on and/or discarded. Just thought it might be fun to share where my head is at
This sofa is fabulous. Love how streamlined it looks but is probably still really comfy.

Love this mantle profile, its different than what you see everywhere, but ultimately we decided it might be a little too simple.
This beautiful parquet is serving as inspiration for a couple different things

We’re going white on our main level, but other than that I totally undecided on decor. Surprise, surprise, I do know we’re going a very different direction in our bedroom at the new house. So if anyone is interested in a coral/pink, custom, king sized headboard at an awesome price (in the Chicago area), let me know!

I REALLY like the sound of all of this…I’m going all white on my mainfloor too and am loving it- can’t wait to see this house of yours come alive…it’s going to be SO good!
Can’t wait to see this progress- good luck!!!
I am SO pissed that I don’t live in Chicago right now. I want that headboard.
Can’t wait to see how it turns out – you’re design style is just so perfect!
I may be interested in your headboard! Would you be willing to send me your price to katiebrown11@hotmail.com? I’m located in Chicago
Im so excited to see all your progress
i wish i was in chicago. i would buy a bigger bed for that headboard. amazing!
Also in Chicago and interested in the headboard!! If it is still available, please send info to awebber24@msn.com Thank you! So excited to follow along as you make this new house a home!
I think it’s so interesting and funny how guys all of a sudden have opinions when decorating. I mean I think in the houses and apartments my husband lived in before we got married I don’t think he ever thought twice about decor and certainly didn’t paint, hang curtains, add accessories. So why does he seem to want to have input now?! hah Good luck with the new house and looking forward to seeing what you two pick out together!
I can’t wait to see how you will decorate. I just know it will be awesome! And if only I had a king sized bed and lived in Chicago, I would totally buy your headboard.
Love the headboard! Too bad I don’t live in Chicago!
