I know it hasnt even been a month since our last guest post, but I decided I love them so much I am going to do them every two weeks, instead of once a month. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Today we have the amazingly talented Danielle Oakey (have you seen what this chick can do?? I am insanely impressed). Well if you haven’t seen her yet, get ready to be introduced to some serious talent…
Hi, I am Danielle from Danielle Oakey Interiors.
I am so excited to be here today!
Maybe if I behave I will get an invite to her Valentines day dinner next year…
Alex asked me to answer 5 questions, so here we go!
1. What is your favorite room & why?
This is such a difficult decision.
I live in 900 sq.ft which only gives me a couple of options.
I finally decided on my living room!
I spend the majoirty of my time here.
I love that it is light, cozy, cheerful, and childproof!
I still have big plans for this space, starting with the ottoman.
I originally made the ottoman from an old coffee table.
I change the fabric every couple of months thanks to a messy 2-year-old!
And I love dwell pillows from target.
2. What is your favorite piece of furniture & why?
I love my bright yellow television stand from Ikea.
It is such a statement piece.
What’s not to love about it?
3. What is your favorite textile & why?
I can’t get enough of my DIY blue & white chevron curtains.
They add the perfect amount of geometric pattern to my window wall.
4. What is your favorite piece of art & why?
This was such a difficult decision.
I actually don’t have much art in my home (ahhh, I know!)
This is something I am working on!
I do love this piece though.
I purchased it at a thrift store for $5.00
I love that it is an original piece of art!
it is the perfect piece for my master bedroom!
I also love my DIY deer heads.
Kinda funky and my daughter adores them!
5. What is your favorite miscellaneous item & why?
I have such a soft spot for this silver bird I purchased from a thrift store for $.75!
It is actually a pepper shaker but it is the perfect touch in my daughter’s room.
Wow, are you tired of me yet?
Thanks so much for having me Alex!
i love all of the touches of yellow! so refreshing and pretty
