Near Completion II, A Stunning Master Bedroom Nestled on the Lake

As I promised in a previous post, here are the final photographs from the "Near Completion" post

At the heart of this residence is a beautiful Master Bedroom, perfect for the homeowners needs and wants. It is just the right amount of elegance while keeping comfort in mind.

Notice the headboard fabric and area carpet as these were the inspirations for the entire space. The headboard sits in a prominent spot at the center of the room with a spectacular view of Lake Erie.

The stunning oil painting graces the seating area where there is a nice play on colors and patterns.

And thus, the customized chests that serve as nightstands flank the gracious bed.

Here Comes Peter Cottontail!

Now that the weather is finally starting to feel like spring, I am reminded Easter is right around the corner! During my weekly search for inspirational rooms I came across many that reminded me of the upcoming holiday.

The bright yellow and geometric patterns in this room resemble these fun Easter eggs, like they were hatched from the same designer!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....Easter candy. Not only do the colors in this entryway work with the chocolate Easter egg, but the pattern does as well.

Weathered painted chest, meet weathered painted eggs.

I did only choose one Easter photograph to show with this room, but there are so many possibilities. The floor = Easter Basket, the chair fabric = Easter dress, cocktail table = Easter ribbon. I do love this room!

Unexpected yes, but doesn't the rug resemble the Easter grass in Easter baskets, and the bright orange and green remind you of colored Easter eggs?

Too cute! I just want to cuddle this little guy.

I am hoping this is a faux fur though.

Easter lilies are a perfect complement to this space!

Beautiful Color Combos

Are you ready for some exciting photographs? These color combinations may be "over the top" for some, but as for me, I LOVE it all! Pay attention to how many styles, patterns and colors are mixed together in one room. Well done, well done. (sorry about the quality, I had to scan the ads!)

My all time favorite color combination...Peacock and Purple:

1 Fabric, 2 Fabrics, 3 Fabrics, More! HPFM-I

Since 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.
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!

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.

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.

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.


Hello beautiful! I have always loved this shade of blue and the crisp white background of the pattern just makes it pop!

For those of you that have had the opportunity to use/see this fabric in person...lucky you! 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!
