Well, after a long debate, I finally decided to go for it. I was very iffy about painting a chevron pattern on my main wall in the kitchen, as I did not want to mess it up. I am so glad I went for it!!!<br />

Make sure you have one of your colors you want to use on your wall. I painted my entire wall with Sherwin Williams Navajo White.<br />

<br />
I began by taking the measurement of the walls height and width. I then divided the width by how many columns I wanted. My wall is 10'-6" wide. I divided this into six sections (21" each). I then took my level and made a vertical line, floor to ceiling, every 21" with a pencil.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Next it is time to decide how thick you want each row. I liked the scale around 9"-11". The height of my wall is 95". After playing around with math, I found that 10 rows at 9.5" would be best. From here I measured down every 9.5" and again took my level and this time made horizontal lines at every mark I just made. This gave me a grid on the walls with long rectangular boxes.<br />

<br />
Beginning at my top intersection of the first box, I took the corner of the tape and made a diagonal line down to the next intersection. Shown on my graph here.<br />

<br />
Make sure to use a straight edge and cut the tape so it makes a perfect point at each tape intersection. Also, don't forget to tape the outside of the lines with the row you want as your accent color (see photograph).<br />
<br />

Time to paint! Decide which row you want as your accent color. Using the base color (Navajo White), paint every other row that will eventually be your accent row. The reason for this extra step is to avoid any bleeding. Then the waiting game begins. I let this dry overnight. <br />

The next day it is time to break out your accent color. I am using a color from Restoration Hardware, Buttermilk. This is the color of all my woodwork and built-ins. Paint over the rows that were painted the day before in your color of choice, Buttermilk for me!<br />

<br />
It may need an additional coat. If so let this one dry and then proceed with the second coat. Then...DO NOT LET THIS DRY!!!! I let mine get "tacky" but not dry. If you pull the tape when it is dry you risk the chance of cracking the paint.<br />

There is nothing better then seeing a traditional chandelier hanging over a modern seating area. Not only does it add a layer of sophistication, but it gives you many opportunities to add your own personality to the design.<br />

Many people are drawn to a certain commonality, whether this is color, lines, or scale. This is where you can begin your design for cohesive harmony. You may be drawn to the lines of a traditional wing back chair. Why not take those lines and find a modern fabric that coordinates with them and upholster the chair in it?!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

The best way to have your eclectic space look intentional is to give more of one style and take less of the other. Try for a 80/20 or 70/30, 80% of one style and 20% of the other. One of my favorite tricks to achieve the eclectic look is to make all the lighting fixtures and rugs traditional and all other elements modern, or vice verse. This gives the correct amount of balance and looks beautiful.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl1Yfo-IdXycnkLoYCeTPaBUfCQzj0J4y-ZCVXfQNRWVcf1N_wQjQ-IA5Ph4qGafG4eofGA3FFQB9axtEh2v_qgiWi-m9EtK4FNqkPLzKiEcMYqfHxX5qXwgKVUKiu5BUTg6Jtx8MMVZoZ/s1600/Textured-living-room.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl1Yfo-IdXycnkLoYCeTPaBUfCQzj0J4y-ZCVXfQNRWVcf1N_wQjQ-IA5Ph4qGafG4eofGA3FFQB9axtEh2v_qgiWi-m9EtK4FNqkPLzKiEcMYqfHxX5qXwgKVUKiu5BUTg6Jtx8MMVZoZ/s320/Textured-living-room.jpg" t$="true" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><b>Consider the Elements:</b> Before putting those five pillows together consider what they do to one another when put side-by-side. By throwing all these pillows together it could look very "hodgepodge", but finding one element that works with all five elimantes this issue. This could be one color found throughout the pillows or even the scale of the patterns. This "guideline" applies to furniture as well.<br />

My rule is: GO FOR IT!! Art does NOT need to match your room. If you like it and the proportion works, use it. Art is meant to be seen not blend in.<br />
<br />
The art of mixing old and new and having it work together but in the same token be completely different, can become confusing, but, when done well, it can be breathtaking.<br />

I have been researching some creative ways to utilize every square inch of space in my already too small home. Eventually we would like to move into a more spacious home but until that time comes, I need to start thinking of different ways to use the one I already live in. One space that jumped to mind was the staircase. There is always so much unused space under the stairs, and is usually too odd of an area to use for living purposes. So to the computer I went and I have found some great inspiration photos: <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiBS7Ggx3GLwB-CpZcBWnrAnS0Q0JwfWJYnGcLfANXX84rFcMNJG5iHay20Skuqz4NZ24CHgAsFX_y03SnddS6Asn2b4Xiqz5riCH-iYDXq6vjfb4XpSaJ4ywRvZtEOkRxduh36LWG_UyY/s1600/storage-stairs1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

It's been awhile but I am finally back and I want to re-enter my blog with a very exciting post. Barrie Spang, a fellow designer at Lee Meier Interiors, and myself have been working very hard designing a local celebrities room, Romona Robinson, for the Great Big Home & Garden Expo, as well as the Main Stage.<br /><br />Upon meeting with Romona we learned that she likes French Country, warm earth tones with soft greens and blues, as well as a love for toile. Barrie and I also gathered inspiration from the High Point Furniture Market last fall and went to work. We are very pleased with the results, but I am keeping the final design photograph for another day (I know the suspense is going to kill you)!!!!!<br /><br />Day 1:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhocyz6wl4f09hmXDUk_dRTQ9jV5b6dd6-DCaa9jNWW1Ss-RwuMNU4PP2P7Ulomu4uqyEzDxEvzvsVPHfe0LzkUfZjMPrGrwZfkwD1HCGK_Rc2BL8E3Ui0UjFzPGewLL_OYfabqwyXXqMEF/s1600/014.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

It was wonderful to have everyone together again. When parties or holidays are around these days, I try to take a step back to make sure appreciate what is happening at that time. This morning I began reflecting on how happy everyone was and from there my mind went into how happy I am in my life right now. Then of course, me being typical me, I began with questions! Am I where I should be in life, am I doing everything the way I would if I had a do-over? I know I am meant to be a mom and wife, was I meant to be a designer? Then I saw a beautiful room in this months Rue Online Magazine and realized I LOVE DESIGN more than ever. Next to family and friends comes design in my life and I wouldn't have it anyother way!<br /><br /><a href="http://issuu.com/ruemag/docs/rue_issue2_final_02/116">Rue%20Magazine%20Holiday%202010</a><br /><br /><a href="http://issuu.com/ruemag/docs/rue_issue2_final_02/112">Rue%20Magazine%20Holiday%202010</a>A.Clarkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00726912421629871092noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210017936563981929.post-50715461789334872282010-11-19T10:10:00.000-08:002010-11-19T10:44:13.743-08:00Distrubing? HPFM-4I have promised some readers I would post some pieces I saw at High Point that I described as "disturbing". I was hesitant to do so after thinking about it, because some people may not agree, but then I thought...well that makes it that even more fun to read all the comments, so please leave as many comments as you wish! And I do hope no one takes offense, it's all for fun! Now, lets begin with body parts!!!!

HPFM-ISince I have returned from HPFM (High Point Furniture Market, and yes I know it was weeks ago!) I have been wanting to blog about the wonderful, and not so wonderful, finds. I will try and catch everyone up quickly but it will take a few blogs.<br />One of my favorite looks involves using more than one fabric on a piece of furniture. This combined with the wonderful colors that were displayed made for some BEAUTIFUL eye candy!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfc98BteLcPnH_i6skJ2gO52_d2HMYi6H2SXxfN1up03fdOk2EaeMyhZKcoDmXWJgQZ1BgDM43j3QOZrfR5WVkK2EGxQw4yQi6cegtZJEVe3_ga1SbTgSDjQ8J-3qrWY69SEb6xIcTAvKv/s1600/Phone+Pictures+572.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534654137488963490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfc98BteLcPnH_i6skJ2gO52_d2HMYi6H2SXxfN1up03fdOk2EaeMyhZKcoDmXWJgQZ1BgDM43j3QOZrfR5WVkK2EGxQw4yQi6cegtZJEVe3_ga1SbTgSDjQ8J-3qrWY69SEb6xIcTAvKv/s400/Phone+Pictures+572.jpg" /></a><br />Although everything is very traditional on this chair I feel it has a very modern twist. The mixture of wood, metal, hounds tooth, and red leather makes for a striking "traditional" chair with an updated feel.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYm-6e3mXr8DQU3AiWO6NSK4zL4cdcOH3ZqIDYzSQjHV0ZBby6eKKjE_scYIjcuPD1fxS2EuVHJVVXaBy3ypp9fSSZafDveYkSbEFjSrniQsoT3TdkCnJw5rFLRKtkvnrGbA5W6001xNI7/s1600/Phone+Pictures+702.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534654799455396978" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYm-6e3mXr8DQU3AiWO6NSK4zL4cdcOH3ZqIDYzSQjHV0ZBby6eKKjE_scYIjcuPD1fxS2EuVHJVVXaBy3ypp9fSSZafDveYkSbEFjSrniQsoT3TdkCnJw5rFLRKtkvnrGbA5W6001xNI7/s400/Phone+Pictures+702.jpg" /></a><br />One trend I saw a lot of was pink. Not the soft pink we saw years ago, but the strong, bold, wonderful pink you see in this chair. I am personally in love with this chair. Note how the pink is actually dominating the floral, which is usually not the case.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKfE7pnMYsqiqCuq67dS8R5mY7nTPz7_rbFf0jxhpckAYcSdhXR9K64UZrO3WBwtTCXFdlLkkcfQWoK9p8NOZW2a_WnQu3KcYN-GsO553rDhd8PxgRGpbwMXfIgVe711qwJ4FAzvBdTOPb/s1600/Phone+Pictures+711.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534656182779591010" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKfE7pnMYsqiqCuq67dS8R5mY7nTPz7_rbFf0jxhpckAYcSdhXR9K64UZrO3WBwtTCXFdlLkkcfQWoK9p8NOZW2a_WnQu3KcYN-GsO553rDhd8PxgRGpbwMXfIgVe711qwJ4FAzvBdTOPb/s400/Phone+Pictures+711.jpg" /></a><br />Upon first glance you may think this is just a traditional dining chair done with the traditional mix of leather and fabric. Look again and you realize how beautiful it truly is. The fabric, leather, wood tone, and nail head work wonderfully together but what I really love is how they played with the leather. The band of leather framing the fabric rather than wood just adds to its elegance.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVDJ_woaCwVMp9Y8gHwRjM8mYp5aLXt5mpqh9LnhyG6q1c4YzEJdLSi6_39yM70fY0bpwm5rN4Po956foUWPdleUGALruMEek3LgXzpzyVlTgJQfmAwff4T2FlDxiM3NWoy501UW5ZJO78/s1600/Phone+Pictures+717.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534657118246613234" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVDJ_woaCwVMp9Y8gHwRjM8mYp5aLXt5mpqh9LnhyG6q1c4YzEJdLSi6_39yM70fY0bpwm5rN4Po956foUWPdleUGALruMEek3LgXzpzyVlTgJQfmAwff4T2FlDxiM3NWoy501UW5ZJO78/s400/Phone+Pictures+717.jpg" /></a><br />Hello beautiful!

The photograph does not do it justice.The color is so intense that pairing with the the neutral leather was a great call. This pattern speaks for itself, but the whole ottoman in it just wouldn't have looked as good as it does with a tone down!A.Clarkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00726912421629871092noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210017936563981929.post-12236384389281738722010-09-30T07:30:00.000-07:002010-09-30T13:33:55.323-07:00FALL back in love with your home!The weather is cooler, the leaves are beginning to change, and the stores are a sea of amethysts, spices, and reds...fall is definitely here.
