BEFORE AND AFTER



Hola there my friends......

We are almost finished with summer and it has been a hot one here in Atlanta!  Very humid so my hair has been in a permanent ponytail!

I have been staying busy trying to get things done.....which is always a struggle for me.  I don't remember being such a procrastinator in my early years.....but I guess I was:)

I started this boys room about a year ago!  It's pretty much finished and of course he is off to college now.

Let's start from the beginning.  It was already painted a blue but I wanted to go darker so I chose the old staple BM Hale Navy.  It is such a rich color....



We decided to keep the rug because it was fairly new and there was nothing wrong with it!

So now it is painted and has been measured for new curtains!

I had a bed custom made and though it was a little bit more expensive we did not have to wait a darn year to get it!




The curtains finally arrived and they were so pretty!


And the Charles Stewart chair made its way to Atlanta....


Got some pillows and bedding....

Love the trim on the curtains!

It is taking shape.
And then the end tables arrived....seriously y'all it is like Drip...drip...drip....:)

I ordered the lamps from Pottery Barn!


But the best part came last week and I feel like they really pulled the room together!


The blinds were installed!

I think they really made a big different adding some texture.



This little nugget loved everything:)

And there you have it!  Would you believe he makes his bed everyday?  At least all the times I was there!
Not the dog but the son...hahaha

Whats up with y'all?  Kids back to school?  Vacations over?  Ready for fall....

Have y'all watched The Bear on Hulu?  So good.

Alrighty then....

BEFORE AND AFTER




I hope everyone felt as much love on Mothers Day as they could gather.....I know I sure do miss my Mom and all of her wisdom......

Well.....the install is over and the art arrived the day before the party so that was a huge relief!

Even though I had a plan B....borrow art from somewhere....I was happy not to have that stress in my life.  I hate to disappoint my clients.

Here are a few crappy iPhone pictures.....


Foyer Before


It's amazing how furniture brings a project to life!



I love this chest from Woodbridge Furniture....
I used faux branches so she does not have to worry about what to put there....I like to make it easy:)


On the other side of the foyer is a bench that I ordered but had recovered!







Below after the vertical paneling went in and it was painted.
Before....



I kept it symmetrical and  ordered 2 chest, lamps and similar art.
 





I am real happy with the results!


2 of my favorite Charles Stewart swivel chairs!

Kitchen before



I added a performance rug in the kitchen and back hall.....



This is the view out the back yard!




I did a little styling on the scullery shelves.....








And a little love for the main level laundry room.....










It got some cute puppy wallpaper.....



That is all I got.....but it's been a long time coming for sure.


It's always fun to have neighbors with a sense of humor....when I find "sperm balloons" on my mailbox....haha

Have a good week....I know its Wednesday already so there's that!

THIS AND THAT




I decided to write this post after I worked out this morning and Lord....that WO almost killed me.  I am the oldest person in class.....feels like I am always the oldest person everywhere these days:) and I just do the best I can and push it as hard as I can.

But seriously......whew!

Anyway it was a busy week of trying to stay on top of everything with my projects!  If you follow me on Instagram you can just stop reading right now....haha.....just scroll down to the brownie recipe!  

This will just be a repeat of what I have been posting lately.

I went to get some things framed and I usually go to Fast Frame on Piedmont Road.  They do a great job and are very helpful.


Can't wait to pick up this bad boy!  

On Tuesday I had 6 pieces of furniture delivered to a client and 3 rugs!  That was fun seeing everything put in place....just a few more pieces to the puzzle....



This rug really warmed up the joint!



I got 2 chest to go on either side of the fireplace....we are going to get the surround made a little darker.




A pretty Bungalow 5 desk that we are using in a bathroom for a makeup counter!



This Arteriors Home bench which will be recovered in a pretty Schumacher fabric!


In the foyer this Woodbridge chest which will get a mirror over it!


And 2 Charles Stewart swivel chairs!  Everything needs pillows!

Another client had her Brazilian Cherry floors redone and they look SO much better!  All that red gone.  



And the hardware that we selected was installed.  The Jasper pull from Emtek in polished nickel.




And these in her master bath are from RH.  I have the same ones in my kitchen and have had them for many years!


Another client had her ceilings painted...such a pretty color.  SW Sandew


This is the sunroom but I can't remember what this color is.....


And last my friend stays with me on Tuesdays and she brought me a present....


How cute is this?  She got it at a store in Greenville SC called 4Rooms.

And she is one of my friends that is a really good cook!  You might be thinking that most of my friends are good cooks and you would be right!  A girl needs to eat:)



Let's just say that she whipped up these brownies from scratch and they were ready in 20 min....

Here is the recipe straight from her:)

Freaky,
 Here is the recipe for my brownies.  There are two keys to these brownies:

 1.  Do not overcook!!!  I set the timer for 20 minutes and watch them.  The thing that makes these brownies great is that they are gooey.
 2.  I put less flour than it calls for.  (this adds to the gooey vs cake texture)

I made a half batch for us because Lord knows we couldn't have had an entire pan of brownies in the house.

2 sticks of butter
5 tablespoons of cocoa ( I use a little less )
2 cups of sugar
4 eggs
1 ½ cups of flour
2 tsps vanilla

Melt butter and cocoa in a sauce pan.  ( I mix the entire thing in this one pan) Stir in sugar . stir in eggs quickly so that they do not cook in the warm butter/sugar mixture, stir in flour, and add vanilla.

Cook in 9x13 buttered and floured pan.  350 degrees for about 30 minutes.  Set timer for 20 minutes and watch.


Alrighty then...it's 5:30 so I better publish this baby!
