Design Scheme for Master Bath

What I'm Working on Today....

This is going to be a fun project!!  After a recent bathroom renovation, these homeowners are out of steam!  They can't even think decorating and design right now.  Lucky for me, I get to come in and put the finishing touches on this already gorgeous space!!  Here is the design scheme I have planned...

 

This is what the Master Bath looks like now.  The homeowners just completed a beautiful bath renovation.  I think it looks great as is, but adding in some accessories and artwork will be the icing on the cake!

Client's Home Office {Just the Beginning}

Fall and Winter are great times to focus on the indoors and to spruce up a room in your house that has been bringing you down.  You may remember this house that I started working on last August (2012) as a young family built their dream home.  (I still have lots of after photos to show you of the gorgeous interiors, but as you know, there is a lot to get done with a space before it is perfectly camera ready).  So, for now, we are focusing on the Home Office.

When the house was built last year, I picked out the wall color and the lighting fixture, and we always new we would get back to it eventually.  And now we have!  So I am so excited to have a blank slate to work with because I have lots of great ideas for this family's space.

The perfect Inspiration for this room. 

 This photo mimics the wall color of the room almost perfectly, a bit darker here.  The overall tone or feeling I want to create for the family is perfect, with the nostalgic black and white photos, gold and brass accents, the wood, leather, and linen textures -- everything about this room is perfect and I plan to create the same feeling in their Home Office. 

I am giving the homeowners 2 options when it comes to the furniture layout.  The first option includes a settee for the sitting area, while the second option includes two different chairs.  Both are great options, but I am leaving this one up to the homeowners!

OPTION #1

OPTION #2

We might not all have $3000 to spend on a fabulous settee or a worn-in leather chair, but there is beautiful furniture out there for a fraction of the cost.  It is just about knowing where to find it and being creative when looking for just the right piece.  After all, Jessica Stout Design is all about designing on a realistic budget, inspired by the high end look.  That is why I am giving the homeowners options for the furniture pieces, so I can stay within their budget.  

So here is a sneak peek of how the office looks now.  It is basically empty!  Now, I just have to sketch up some custom book case designs so they can get built and start shopping! 

What I'm Working on Today...Straight from iPhone

Just a quick fabric switcheroo for my new office chair.

This was a cheap, rickety old chair that no one wanted at a yard sale.  So after some quick paint touch-ups and changing out the fabric with some scrap black and white chevron fabric that I already had laying around, I now have a new office chair!

What I'm Working On Today

Here's a little project I finished up today!

As some of you may or may not know, I currently started a new business venture.
Refurbish & Refinish!  Along with my business partner, we seek out antiques and vintage items and refurbish them to new modern pieces for your home!

This is the chair as I found it!  Not in great condition.  :(

Green or navy, green or navy?  That is the question!  Once I had this Ikat fabric that I LOVED, I finally decided on navy paint for the chair by popular demand.

 

The chair's seat needed a little extra cushion.  So I first added two layers of batting with a couple of staples, before wrapping the seats with the fabric. 

After lots of stapling, all four cushions are done!

 Here is how they turned out.

All four chairs are FOR SALE right now on my FACEBOOK page!  I'm sure they won't last long so get them before they're gone!
