3 Old Photos

I can't remember when I did this swag. I found this long lost picture in my bag of photos. It was so long ago that I can only remember the city where the house is. McLean

I call this the Mickey Valance because the 1st person I made this for was named Mickey.

We didn't make the sheers. In another post I'll show you the difference between custom and ready made sheers.

This is Mickey's living room

and Yes, this room really was painted Blush.

Mickey found a ready-made valance for $1.00 at the Home Depot. She liked the shape so we copied it.

Do you like the pillows? I like the bright cream that Mickey chose to have us put in the center of the pillow.

" Going in Circles"

Do you remember me saying, Anything can work in a Bay?

If you're going to dress the windows........

You should also dress the chairs.

and don't be Afraid to use a fun print.

Your Home Your Style!

Does your Dining Room reflect your personal style?

Is your kitchen inviting you to come in and stay awhile?

Your home should be distinctively yours. You don't have to copy your neighbor's home.

Take some time to consider what you really like. Then hire a professional to help you implement exactly that.
