THIS AND THAT

You know what we haven't done in a while? A 'this and that" post where I basically just dump some "instagram post and stories on the blog. I realize that many of you aren't on Instagram but if you are and have already seen them...well then just shut this post down and go pluck your eyebrows or something.

Starting with Matthew Quinns book signing at Michael Ladisics home a week after I returned from Boulder. I spent 2 days there re-styling everything and doing flowers....not sure how I got through that.

Book one is on the bottom of this stack and the new book is on top! It's gorgeous and definitely worth every penny....you can order here

When I win the lottery.....I will hire him and then just be surprised. #trust

Some styling shots....

This is a picture of the scullery...

And we added this Phillip Jeffries Wallpaper on the ceiling the day of the party.

#livingontheedge

Added these Lee Industries stools tucked under the table for extra seating.

I wore my sparkly skirt from Lafayette148 New York that I splurged on...

Remember I showed it on Instastories?

Wish I could afford the sweater:(

I was invited to a dinner sponsored by The Shade Store which was held at one of my favorite Atlanta restaurants Cape Dutch.

I wore the skirt again because people....it's price per wear right?

The fall ORC started.....and I am excited to follow along with all of the talented group....but especially my good friend Erika Ward!

I am also working on a new project for Ladisic Fine Homes.....this one is for sale people and it's gonna be epic!

Bedroom ceiling

Had a photoshoot with the talented Rustic White Interiors for a project that will be featured in Atlanta Home Magazine' winter issue....pretty excited about that:)

There is no shot he can't get!

I had dinner with some good friends and he took this book and highlighted all the pages that he thought would help me. People have been extremely kind to me in every way.

And....a guest bedroom is getting this plan which I am extremely excited about! The Schumacher wallpaper is getting installed today!

Can you believe this is a picture of my very first sheepie! It was probably 1980! It is the only one I have gotten as a puppy....all the others [4] I have rescued. I really was a brunette....haha

And....this little 400,000 car. Ferrari used Michael Ladisic's house to debut their new car. I sat in it and felt like a bada**

I am excited to be included in this lineup.....

And last.....my friend Andrea Costa was diagnosed with Stage one breast cancer so we took her out and showed her some love.

So there you have it....moving forward and trying to stay busy.

Much love to all of you and Happy Friday!

BEFORE AND AFTER KITCHEN

It's hell getting old.

The other day while I was out shopping for a client...... I had to pee so badly.

Since I was right near my house I decided to just go home to a clean [somewhat clean] bathroom.

As I turned down my street I took a sip of my Starbucks and it went down the wrong way....came out my nose....spilled all over my white shirt....and I started coughing so hard I peed in my pants.

Needless to say that little stop at home lasted somewhat longer than I planned since I had to change clothes.

Like I said.....

Have I mentioned how excited I am to have a project out in Southern Homes right now?

I loved working on this renovation with my favorite builder....Michael Ladisic and project manager Jennifer Tate was incredible and so helpful.

The client was a bright star....so easy to work with....we became fast friends.

I have posted a little during this project a couple of years ago but today I can show you some images I had taken for my own portfolio [Rustic White Photography] mixed in with a few from the magazine [Marcy Simpson].

Starting today with the kitchen before and afters.....

Before of the kitchen space.....yep ready for a new look!

After

The architect [Linda MacArthur] was able to take out a back staircase to get more room for the butlers pantry back towards the right. Those white chairs [Vanguard] are Sunbrella fabric and the pewter table is by Francoise and Co The Circa Lighting Darlana pendants, cabinets painted Benjamin Moore White Dove. Calcutta marble countertops [Construction Resources].

I know you remember those gorgeous Top Knob handles....they are my favorite!

Before

This is my favorite shot! We used a small herringbone marble backsplash from Renaissance Tile. Rohl faucet.

Notice the beautiful edging on the countertops....

Even though this is a white kitchen I feel like the wood tones, iron window and stone floors give it lots of warmth.

We picked the stone floors as the homeowner is an animal lover and has 2 dogs....and one very naughty cat:) Much more forgiving than hardwoods!

The butlers pantry has Soapstone countertops and the black subway tile came from Renaissance Tile.

Before

We added some shiplap to the fireplace and a stone mantel from Materials Marketing. I really love the wood accents which look a little red here but in actuality are more of a driftwood color.

I only have one picture of the family room but we used the art that was formally over the FP mantel over the Charles Stewart sectional [Crypton fabric]

Lynn Terry, the Southern Homes editor, has offered me [ 3 ] one year subscriptions so leave a message and I will pick randomly!

So many more pictures of this project to share with you.

TGIF is my mantra today!

PHOTO SHOOT

If you follow me on Instagram you might have seen some stories showing this landscaping at a project. In fact it is the one that was photographed for Southern Home magazine recently!

This magazine is chocked full of goodness!
