Our Master Bath...

It has taken a while, a long while, but our Master Bath is finally done.  I am so excited to have it complete and be able to use it again!  It is clean and simple just as I had hoped.  I am still working on accessories and I feel like I want to add something to the walls, but for all intents and purposes it is complete.

We finally decided to use the wall mounted faucets which I am very happy we did, it is just a little bit different from the norm.  We mounted them just above the back splash and they are great with the vessel sinks from Kraus.

I love the Walker Zanger tile accent, it is just what we needed for a little something special in the shower.

We used soapstone on the counter and bath tub.  Which is so pretty, a little delicate but it is perfection.

The counter is the perfect spot for a few little things like my new vintage vanity mirror from the Pasadena flea market and my new Barr Co. candle.  The cabinet we converted has a lot of storage so I can keep everything tucked away.

I think this is one of my favorite things!!  I love the custom sconces from Cleveland Art.  They are so beautiful the pictures do not even do them justice.  They were the last pieces to be put in and they truly finished the space up.

The shower was really hard to photograph so this is the best way to see it.  We opted for the rain shower head, love it, and a completely glass enclosure.  The remodel was a lot more work than I thought but a great experience, and I am so happy with the results.

Master Bath Updates

Our Master Bath updates are well under way!  I could not be more excited to get this project completed.  I chose all of the pieces very slowly, which is not normal for me- I was having a tough time making choices.  For the shower we are using Walker Zanger Studio Moderne  Petit Imperial in Jute as the inset with the small matching field tile and trim, I LOVE it!  It looks so amazing!  The sink will be a free standing piece with a limestone top, the kraus vessel sinks, Kholer wall mounted faucets and custom mirrors and lighting. 

This is what the bathroom looked like last week (below).  Which was making me crazy.  Since then we have pulled all the tile as well as the mirror, sinks and cabinets, they were so bad.  I will be giving you an update next week on our progress, which I am excited to say does not included exposed insulation!

Wing chair before and after..

It has been a while since I have had these back and I have been so bad about taking pictures of them.  I am so happy with the way they turned out and I think that they will just get better and better as I wash them and have them tighten up a bit.

Another busy week this week and I am looking forward to completing a few things around here and moving along with the bathroom.  I have been reading and trying to rest up enough so that I can get some things taken care of.



Another project that I have been working on for a little while installed a few weeks back.. I love love the way the banquettes turned out with the metal tables...  It was a very fun space, I cannot wait for the TV's to get in to see it in full effect!

 

vessel sink obession..

 

 

Well what can I say I love the vessel sinks!  I put one in our guest bath and I have been trying to find something that will work for our master.  I think I may even use the same sink with a different faucet because I am having a hard time finding anything that I like better.  I always forget once a project is done just how many little decisions have to be made to make it complete.  It is always so much harder for me to make decisions about my own house and this little bathroom is not any different!!

Have you found a great vessel sink that you are willing to share??

Here is just a little sneak peek at the accent tile from Walker Zanger that I am using in the shower, I love love it! More to come on that next week...

Master bath dreams..

 

So I have been contemplating for months - what am I going to do with my master bath??  With work being so busy I have been putting off  the planning and I had stopped searching but really we were at the point where it could not wait any longer!  So finally a few weeks ago I found a few hours to work on my bathroom, I took a quick trip to Walker Zanger in search of the perfect tile for the shower as it had been eluding me for months!!!  We have an existing marble floor that we put in just a few years ago and my tastes have changed so much since then so it was hard to decide what I wanted.  

Finally I thought I had it all figured out and when I went to order it today it completely destroyed my budget- back to the drawing board I am afraid.  

The picture above is my dream cabinet, but this also is not in my budget and not in my color scheme thanks to the floor.  I will share our progress as it becomes available, which will be very soon considering my hubby is almost done pulling out all of the old tile and the new tile has to be started next week!

Living room and Family room Design

I had the recent pleasure of working on multiple spaces for a client who was looking for a style that I really enjoy.  For their living room I suggested a clean slightly dressier look with greys and linens and to carry the feeling through into their family room we toned down the formality for a comfortable family space that will be used every day.  

In the larger family room I suggested paneling on the large open wall opposite the fire place and seating with artwork to add some weight.  It was a fun space to create.

I am always so amazed by how much fun it is to create a space for a family that they can use and the best part is getting to know my clients.

Feminine touch

My wonderful client Amy has given me the opportunity to work with her on another room in her home.  I am so excited!  There is a slightly feminine touch to the space with the splash of pink.  Amy has some great existing pieces that are helping to shape the direction of her space as well as some really beautiful architectural details.  

We have made some changes to her room along the way here in the design process that I think really made the design better.  That is one of the great things about designing for homeowners, I think that their needs and wants make the space easier, instead of having complete free reign.  I find that the more guidelines a space has can definitely make designing a little more challenging, but it also helps to narrow the search.  It is so much easier to design when you know what someone is looking for.  The more information a client can give about what they want and how they are going to use the space the better. 

I am loving the way that this is progressing!

Living room makeover..

Having found my new wing chairs last week I decided that my Living room needed a little make over.  I have a pretty neutral base so it is easy to change out some fabrics and pillows and make a pretty significant change in the space.  I decided that I would like to slipcover my new chairs in a white cotton duck so that I can wash them easily and have a much needed white accent in my space.  I have fallen in love with Barbara Barry's Ceylon Key fabric and basically used that as my starting point adding texture and print from there.  I wanted to get the full effect of the space so I added a few of my smaller accents from the space to see how I would like everything together.  I am excited to make these few simple changes and update our house a little.  We still need to have the wood flooring put in and make some major improvements but this will get me started and make me feel better while I wait it out!
