Easy on your feet & eyes

I am really feasting my eyes on antique rugs lately, so I have done a little research and put together some the best places to purchase them for a reasonable price.

I have found that a lot of designer love using this site on ebay to get a good deal on antique rugs. They are so pricey, and granted online shopping for rugs is never easy because you really can't tell the exact hues in rug until it is delivered to your home. Sometimes it is just worth the risk!

Dream Office

I look forward to the day to have my own office. I know that what ever home we end up in I will utilize the space by creating a room that doubles up as my office and a guest room. (unless you have a massive home and rooms to spare, I always find it wasteful to have a whole room as a guest room that gets used if once a year). So here are some small offices that give me inspiration to what I would love in our future home!:) I like simple but bold and all of these little spaces make me happy and I could see me pulling little details from each of these offices:

Sugarhouse Remodel

My clients totally impressed me at our first consultation meeting with these floor plans that they put together themselves! So these are the plans for the remodel:

Basement: 

Main Level:

Here is the first E-board I put together for them for the kitchen area:

They wanted copper incorporated and we didn't want to over kill with copper so I suggested just a pop of copper with the pendant lighting would really look unique. 

They did not want white countertops so I went with a more neutral color, even with knocking down a a couple of walls the kitchen is still narrow so I want to keep the surface as light as possible so light can reflect off the surface making the space feel more spacious:)

Here is the current state of the kitchen/dinning. I am thrilled to see our plans come to life!

I will be sharing the plans for the basement/dining soon!

Just to Clarify

I love, love, LOVE doing interior design. It is a strong passion of mine, I honestly can not emphasis that enough.  I have gone back and forth with how to fulfill this passion and also the knowledge that I have learned going to design school. It is so hard to find the right balance in life in all the different roles we juggle. After a lot of thought I have decided to stick with doing e-design. If you are interested in my services you can find out more about e-design HERE. 

That is all! Happy Friday and come check in tomorrow I am relieving a remodel project I am currently working on!

Wall Paper Lovin

When I did my internship at Ethan Allen, I recall being so elated to find out that wallpaper was "in style again" although they quickly corrected me and said, "Crystal wallpaper was never OUT of style". Well that being said I have definitely noticed wallpaper being used a lot more than it used to be. I have had people ask me where to get my favorite wallpaper so here is a few place I have found wallpaper and LOVE:

Residential Wallpaper }{ Anthropologie }{ Etsy }{ Domino 

  I mean even if you clam to hate wallpaper how could you hate this, there is just so many different ways & styles that you can incorporate wallpaper into your home and it adds SO much!;)
Here is how some other incredible designers have used it:
