Master Bath

A master bath we have been working on is almost finished. We have had fun working on this. It has been a group project with the owner being very involved and working hard so she is happy, which helps us push ourselves to be perfect also. The carpenter and contractor have had wonderful ideas too. It is amazing how the project has morphed as we go along. Window treatments and glass shower are what is left to be installed so more pics to come. The floor is 12" x 18" Carrara marble and the wall design on subway tile is a blue glass pencil.

Paisley

I had a very old wool paisley shawl that was my grandma's. It was ripped in the middle so couldn't be used as a throw. I guess they used to wear them to keep warm but it would have been rough on the skin.
I decided to paint my dining room chairs a minty green and then cover them with the paisley. I'm still in the middle of the project but I like the way they turned out. I also made a couple of simple window valances to match.

Zoffany wallpaper


I think everyone loves wallpaper but sometimes it is hard to pull the plug and put it up instead of just paint. We really like this paper that a client recently had hung. It has some silver threads running through the sage green background and the chandelier gives it pizzazz!
