Yearling Home (Powder room)

An 80's powder room gets a small makeover.

The diamond shaped mirror and excessive lighting had to go.

***************************************************

In it's place a smart bevelled black framed mirror and classic lighting.


Some beautiful accessories just added to the cream and black theme nicely. Just a small cost in accessories really changed the look of this room.

Yearling Home (Home office)

The home office was feeling a little unloved and I wanted to give this bachelor homeowner something masculine, sexy and up to date.
I knew the first thing to go would be the dark green walls and the wall lighting.


**********************************************************************
I painted the back wall as an accent wall in a stone colour and the three other walls in a very chalky white cream colour which was similar to the rug.

This shag rug is fun and contemporary and adds some texture to the room.
A silver drapery pool and black grapes were added to replace the verdigris ivy pole that was there before.


I liked how just by some simple updates we did not have to run to the expense of changing all the office furniture.


An extra chair was added to the corner and this cool sexy side table (which I love!)
The black and silver accents add that fabulous masculine touch.



Black and white photo's add interest to the wall.



This clock was a bargain find and perfect for the opposite wall above the fish tank.
The room turned out perfectly how I imagined it to be and the homeowner is very happy.

Yearling Home (Dining Room)

This is a beautiful home and mostly just needed a few finishing touches. The dining room has an elegant large dining table and cabinet.
I decided to paint the crown moulding and baseboards to white form the cream colour they were originally painted to add a little definition.




***********************************************
After the painting all it needed were some accessories to bring this unused room to looking like the elegant dining room it deserved to be.


New drapes and a new pole were added to replace the outdated valance.
Hurricane vases, a display of candle sticks and a beautiful simple place settings on silver charger plates now adorn the table.



The unused cabinet now holds modern and traditional accessories in white, silver and black.
Making the cabinet show it's true potential.


This dining room is now ready to host a dinner at a moments notice!
