Sleeping Beauties
All of these bedrooms have one thing in common, they all personify the style of their owners. Whether it be through a dynamic color scheme or the dramatic contrasts through the use of accessories, fabrics, and wallpaper, they all enjoy their own unique brand of personality. Many feel the bedroom should be filled with neutrals […]

Brazilian Creative
Cristiane and Marcelo Rosenbaum, both designers, created the interiors of this 1960′s house with Brazilian folk art as the inspiration. Their main purpose was to show appreciation of Brazilian heritage, crafts, and arts. The pair did not stick with traditional surface options either, they actually created some of the coverings for the floor and walls, The […]

Novogratz Style
I have been a huge fan since their 2010 show “9 By Design” and still think Cortney and Bob Novogratz, hosts of HGTVs Home by Novogratz, are the most exciting design team to come on the scene for quite some time. Sure, you may not find everything they do to your liking, but they always […]

Silverware Makeover
Loving this idea from Tiffany of Offbeat & Inspired for a way to combine all of your mismatched silverware into one cohesive collection. I have tons of random silverware that is more than due for their makeover. The bonus is how easy it is to do. Just paint, let set for 48 hours, and then […]

Take My Apartment, Please!
You may look at this gorgeous Chicago apartment and say “Wow, the tenant must pay a pretty penny for rent”. Not so much. This particular tenant prefers to spend his money on the design elements filling the space, so he sublets his two adjoining one-bedroom rental apartments and sleeps in a coat closet with just […]
