Watercolor New Construction COMPLETE!

Inspiration Images, Interior Design, Things I like

This has been one of my favorite projects to-date. It’s a stunning house in Watercolor’s Forest Lakes disctrict. The owners are from Dallas, and chose this location to invest in a rental property. Karen Kerns and I were thrilled to be chosen to help with the interiors. They purchased the home while under construction as a spec home by Ben Giles, so we had some flexibility with colors/lighting/flooring/finishes. I love how the design really came together from concept to completion. Also, look for a design feature of this home in Destin Magazine’s upcoming issue. If you’re interested in renting the home, here’s a link:

I’ve included all the pictures in my Design Portfolio tab, but here are some of my favorite shots by MoonCreek Studios. Truly stunning, and even more beautiful in person!

High Point Furniture Market Fall 2014

Leaving tomorrow for High Point North Carolina Fall 2014 Furniture Market! Stay tuned for a recap of all my favorites when I return!

Blue Mountain Beach Before and After

Inspiration Images, Interior Design

Check out my latest Before and After. The original design boards and pictures are also shown on my conceptual design and design portfolio. This was one of my favorite jobs to date– the client wanted cheery and bright, light and airy. The home was purchased –as is– with dark, West Indes inspired furniture that we removed and started from scratch. It was truly a labor of love, and the clients are more than thrilled with their new beachfront oasis. Enjoy!

Justin Gaffrey

Art that Inspires, Interior Design

SO, I purchased my first original Justin Gaffrey painting. It was commissioned back in July. So, as you can imagine, I was ecstatic to get a call from the artist himself saying it was completed! As you probably already know, I’m a huge advocate of investing in original art, as it’s value only appreciates with time. I took some pictures of his work studio and gallery in Blue Mountain Beach this last time I was there. His art work is so unique and dimensional. If you’re ever in the area, I encourage you to stop by his gallery in the Seaside circle, or visit his studio in Blue Mountain Beach, where you might even get a glimpse of him painting.
Enjoy!

AND NOW.. drumroll please! Here’s my new painting! I absolutely love it!

Cantley and Company

Interior Design

While in school, I had the pleasure of working for an NKBA accredited kitchen and bath design firm. I learned so much about the ins and outs of kitchen design. They are located in downtown Birmingham, and do absolutely BEAUTIFUL and classic design work. A “Cantley kitchen” never goes out of style. The cabinets are made locally, so everything they do is custom. Take a look at some of their swoon-worthy design work. Much success in the future, Cyndy and Keith!

Allison Wickey

Art that Inspires, Interior Design

Another one of my favorite local artists — check out the amazingly talented, Allison Wickey. She creates beautiful art, and I’ve had the pleasure of using her work for quite a few of my design jobs. She is so talented, and very diverse in subject matter. Her style involves a roughly 13 step, 4 day process using venetian plaster, acrylic paint, glazes, and an orbital sander. If you’re local, go check out her new gallery in Seacrest Beach. Enjoy!
