  3. Thanks for the intro to all these great designers…………can’t wait to check out their portfolio’s. Lovely pics.

    PS: I linked to your great Lilly post yesterday…………….LOVED those preppy inspiration boards.

  4. Beautiful stuff. And I’m having the same problem picking out a living room rug!

      It’s it horrible. I know I’m going to end up with a blah beige rug, because everything I love is way out of my price range!

  5. Ashley says:

    I spent most of the morning today pouring over each page and soaked in all the beauty of the Tilton Fenwick spread–probably my favorite. Perhaps I’ll be checking out Traditional Home more often now…

    • effortless says:

      I agree the ladies behind Tilton Fenwick are my favorites too! I will have to meet them tomorrow night.

  6. I just posted on TRADHome this morning. And do you know what I loved about your post? (Besides the wonderful images) You used completely different photos and it just goes to show you that this new online mag is one to watch. I sincerely loved what I saw! Roxanne

  7. Julie says:

    Ohh definitely share picts of the party. I loved the chair feature and it only made my craving for a Louis chair that much worse.

  8. Katie says:

    I really, really, really want Louis chairs covered in turquoise velvet for my dining room!! OH, also I’m in love with blues and reds of any shade. That bedroom is making me swoon. My mom gets Traditional Home and, so I wait to steal hers. I need to get my hands on this issue soon!

    • effortless says:

      The latest issue of Traditional Home was also really good. You totally need to steal it from your mom.

  9. That peacock wallpaper is fantastic… subtle and pretty. Loving that whole room,actually. Looking forward to curling up tonight and checking out the whole thing!

    Oh- and agree with you about Swan Lake. I was dying to do my clients dining room in the black version, but they weren’t feeling it. Oh well, another time hopefully!

    Trad is rad! Love all your choices of their choice. Just one teensy thing: No more black kitchen or bathrooms.
    xo xo

      I agree. I painted over my black bathroom a couple of months. After 3 years of living with it I was so tired of seeing it everywhere so it had to go.

  11. I have yet to make it all the way through as well. The yellow dress on the cover had me at hello!

    I thought Tilton Fenwick project was cute but it looks like that is their first project since they have only been open for 8 months. Personal faborite by far was Sara Gilbane Interiors- seems like she was the only one who used color?! Her firm definitely has the biggest portfolio. I see a future Markham Roberts! Too much black for my taste through out the issue. Two Michaels project was pretty as well. Loved the built-in window seat.

    • effortless says:

      All good points. I think I was just personal drawn to Tilton Fenwick purely for the peacocks. Sometimes it just takes one thing for me. 🙂 I had no clue it was only 8 months. I wonder how they got noticed at TradHome?

  13. Sorry we didn’t get to meet at the party! Thanks for including our peacock room on your blog! Anne and Suysel

ON THE BLOG

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.

Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.

On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.

In our new home, the basement was completely unfinished. It was literally one of those dark spaces that you see in horror movies and are terrified of getting locked into. However, with the square footage in this house, I knew I needed to make the basement another workable and liveable floor of the house instead […]

The time has come to finally share our new kitchen reveal. For those of you that have been with us from the beginning, we bought a house right before the pandemic hit. It was a total gut job from top to bottom. We started our demo and then the world shut down. Enter the delays […]

new-farrow-and-ball-paint-color-picks-for-my-house

Picking out paint colors for a new home can be overwhelming. I find that many times when I meet with a new client the entire house is simply just painted white or a light gray. Now, I think there is a time and place for those colors, but with paint, there is just so much […]

What to look for when it comes to picking out kitchen appliances: Leave room in your budget for appliances. When it comes to kitchen renovations everyone knows that the cabinetry and the labor of demoing and installing cabinetry is going to eat a lot of your budget. However, the second most expensive part of a […]

I don’t think I’m alone in thinking that designing a kitchen is an overwhelming undertaking. I’m an interior designer and even I find it stressful to iron out all of those details. So, when it comes time to design a kitchen I always like to partner with a kitchen designer to make sure I’m remembering […]
