Decoration Home Interior

I'm off looking for carpets (that don't cost a million dollars) and running around for my clients today so you're going to have to wait until later for a proper post. Don't miss me too much! XOXO!

I had a lot of readers ask me where to find the chairs in my last post. They were actually already owned by my client and are from Lee Industries. The chairs are a nice small size for New York apartments. You can see from the before photo below what a difference new upholstery and fabric can make on an old chair! The new fabric is a small neutral herringbone from Travers called Warwick which is available from Zimmer + Rohde. I also had my upholsterer remove the nail head trim so they would look clean and simple. So they next time you think about getting rid of an old chair, just remember that it can be given new life with new fabric!

Everyone keeps clamoring for me to post more about my projects so I'm posting one sneak peek photo and it's before incarnation. This living room is located in a three bedroom family apartment uptown. Please keep in mind that this is a during photo so it has not been completely styled because it's not even finished yet! The draperies that were hung recently need another steaming and there is no coffee table. The artwork above the sofa has not been hung because we need to wait the side tables that don't arrive until possibly June on which lamps will be placed and then will dictate the art placement. See why I don't usually post during projects now! There are so many elements that need to come together that they take months to complete. I hope you enjoy this little peek and will continue to bear with me as I work to complete this project and a few others!
