design plan: the good mood board living room edition

Posted by dasfseegdse 0 komentar


i am really excited about participating again in the good mood board blog event with remodelaholic.if you have missed the previous 6 boards, click here to get started by viewing the first board. there will be a link at the end of each post to take you to the next board. it's kinda like a train....a train of inspiration and ideas! (and, hopefully you will get to visit a few blogs that are "new to you".)


 the last room we focused on was a master bedroom. you can see the plan i designed for that room here. this time, we are focusing on living rooms, and i have chosen to create a plan for my "maybe someday" house. this is pretty close to what i would create for my own living room...one thing i love to do is mix high and low, and in this design plan, i have mixed items from affordable sources like ikea and home decorators with higher end items from jonathan adler and schumacher.

i picture this room with 9 foot ceilings, and the walls painted a soft warm grey color like revere pewter by benjamin moore. 

as ALWAYS, i would love to see hardwood floors, and a fabulous trim treatment on the wall like we did in the library of house #5. this would be a room where we sit and talk, entertain guests, get on the laptop, or read. ideally there would be some amazing built-in bookcases somewhere in the room to house a bunch of books.

a clean-lined subtly striped sofa would be the anchor to the seating area, with a grey velvet wingback chairs on one side, and i simple armless chair on the other side. above the sofa, i would love to take an over scaled photo and cut it in half, and mount each piece in a simple gold frame. the chandelier from jonathan adler would provide a sense of whimsy and add some subtle touches of gold...plus, can you imagine the amazing shadows that this chandelier would cast?! i imagine they would be pretty spectacular.
 anyway, here is the design plan i pulled together...i tried (i REALLY did) to use olio board, but i am a creator of habit. especially when that habit has NO learning curb! here is the plan:



sources:
griffin sofa from ballard designs


hazelton ottoman from home decorators

luxe wingback chair by crate and barrel





round bone mirror from wisteria


jazz pillow cover from west elm




alana two tier side table from grandin road


the next blogger in the event lineup is stephanie lynn at under the table and dreaming.

It's official...Christmas is coming so be prepared...if you haven't already summoned the christmas tree then I strongly suggest you do so because as of tomorrow the amount of christmas inspiration will be overwhelming that you may not have time for anything else.

I'm off to modelling with my very talented and gorgeous daughter Chloe, here she is as she appears in the latest Queensland Tourism Campaign



She had so much fun filming up in noosa...gosh the working life of a 10yr old certainly looks hard.

Have a Beautiful day xx

the holidays + good mood board event

Posted by dasfseegdse 0 komentar
i hope everybody had a fantastic loooong weekend. i know i did. i cooked a LOT, we had thanksgiving dinner, watched a few movies as a family, raked uh-LOT of leaves, visited with friends, and relaxed. and no, i never got around to making the table look amazing...it just looked ok. a simple tablecloth, my white dishes, some cute striped napkins, a few mercury glass votives with candles in them, and that was it. maybe next year. *cough, cough.
a BIG thank you to everyone who checked out my curators sale at joss and main! i was really excited to see how many items sold out, and was pleased with the overall selection. i tried to include items that were budget friendly, and had an interesting and eclectic look. this was (obviously) a first for me, and it was a lot of fun and a really great experience. one of the things i realized is that joss and main has a blog! i honestly didn't know that before i was asked to curate the sale. i wrote a post for the blog that you can check out here.

anyway, back to this weekend...i spent a lot of time in my pajamas, and really tried to focus on my family. it was wonderful! thanksgiving really is my favorite holiday...i love that it is centered on eating a wonderful meal with our families. good food, good company, and hopefully some laughs and a nap. how can you top a day like that?? i also love that thanksgiving is the official gateway to christmas.

although i tried to unplug myself from the computer, i did spend a little time on pinterest. it's hard to stay away from that site! it's so addicting. in any case, looking through all of the pictures got me in a holiday mood. there is something so calming about looking at amazing houses all decked out for the holidays. 
here are a few of my favorites from the archives of my blog:











all images scanned by me from various sources over the last few years.
it's time to get out the christmas decorating tubs! (if i can find them....grrr.)

Now this is one kitchen I could see myself happily staying in...with a view like that I would happily cook all day long if need be...it would also be the first place I would run to of a morning and cheerfully swing open that door...Ahh wouldn't this just be blissful...I don't think I would need that television though with a view like that who needs TV. Have a wonderful wednesday xx

paint choices for grady's room

Posted by dasfseegdse 0 komentar
i have narrowed down the paint choices for grady's room. here are the finalists:

boothbay gray

blue springs


feather gray

and a picture of them in the room....with and without the flash:
i am leaning towards blue springs. the booth bay gray has a little too much green in it to tie in with 
the rug, and although i really like the feather gray, i worry that it might look a little too feminine.
what are your thoughts? do you have a favorite? have you seen or used these colors before?
