Hey y'all.....I know....it's been a while. There is a slight problem since I upgraded the software on my Mac with uploading my pictures.
I used to be able to put the ones I would be using in an album which made it easier to upload but now it doesn't seem to be doing that so it takes forever to hunt for the ones I want to use.....grrrrrrr.
It is always technology that does you in right! But I have an hour before I have to meet my installer to hang some art so let's see what I can come up with....
How about a little this and that to start with. Making some headway with a few clients....
Here is the before of this chair that was recovered...
It has great lines but was faded and I did not like the tufting in the seat cushion....
So magically here is the after in a black and ivory windowpane fabric and I love how they turned out! These pillows were in her family room but we auditioned them for these chairs and they were perfect. We will do a pretty dark gray velvet though for some richness!
She also got her husband to hang these Target frames in the upstairs hallway.....I love this because she can change out the pictures if she wants!
In other news I finally [after waiting 6 months for "in stock"] received this furniture! She is my "glam client so it is kind of fun to do something like this!
The dining room chairs....
The sectional also arrived and now we need pillows, a rug and window treatments....the fun part right!
I think this is the "most glamour" bedroom I have ever done and I am down with it!
I found this pretty pillow at Scotts....so that is our starting point!
Here is the before....
And the after....which includes nothing new I might add.....
Just a little refresh!
It was fun scratching our head to come up with a more edited look and get rid of some of the white.
And there you have it...I managed to get through the picture part with out tearing my hair out....:)
I should have changed my blog away from blogger a long time ago and then I might not have this problema....but y'all....I get so overwhelmed with things lately. Believe it or not...the Mac desktop that I bought 3 weeks ago is still sitting in the box in my office.
Crikey.
Alrighty then....I feel better to catch y'all up!

Your post are a treat, no matter how big or small. I’m sorry that you are going through such a hard time. One day at a time is a good strategy… maybe booking a getaway, doesn’t have to be far away or for an extended period of time, would give you something to look forward to… a little break from the same routine does wonders.
While we should be excited about getting new technology (it's not like it's free) but it can be a chore to get it all set up. Plan for most or all of the day depending on your situation.
On a happier note, you got some furniture!!! Always worth the wait despite the frustration!
Hi Sherry! Always love your work and am contstantly inspired. Would you share the manufacturer of the dining table? It looks like it would be a nice marriage between modern and traditional with the brass ( or chrome) brackets on lower part of the table legs. Am I reading that correctly? I have been looking for a new table to seat 8-10 and haven't found anything. Thanks and take good care.
A fun post as always! If I can switch to wordpress...YOU definitely can. I will help you. We are buying a house near Jacksonville, FL so I won't be too far away. I was talking to Cindy and we think that Atlanta may be the closest design mart. So I will see you there!
I don't care how intermittent these posts are, as long as they keep coming.
always a bit of magic

GORGEOUS DINING TABLE!!! Can you share the vendor? Your work is always beautiful.
I always love seeing a post from you, it is always filled with so much inspiration. Love the recovered chairs!
I just found your blog and I'm so glad that I did!
The chair is beautiful.
It's funny that you say brown is back because I started thinking about adding brown to my family room decor late last year.
