THIS WAS OUR HOUSE 6 YEARS AGO.....THE WALLS WERE CAVING IN ON US AND IT WAS TIME TO EXPAND......
AND WE LOVE IT! BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING MISSING.....TO THE LEFT OF THE BACK PORCH WAS EMPTY SPACE.......HMMMMMMMM......
A TERRACE WITH A BUILT IN GRILL WAS EXACTLY WHAT THIS SPACE NEEDED!....AND A SCREENED PORCH WAS A BONUS!
I KINDA THINK IM PRETTY SURE THIS IS THE LAST BIG PROJECT.......
TODAY I RECEIVED THE NEW MARK SIKES BOOK "BEAUTIFUL"......OMG OMG OMG......MARK SIKES DEFINES MY PERSON INTERIOR STYLE.....THIS IS WHY I LOVE MARK SIKES: HE'S DESIGNS A SOPHISTICATED TIMELESS AND CLASSIC LOOK IN A COMFORTABLE AND LIVABLE WAY. I LOVE HOW HE THROWS IN WICKER AND RATTAN IN A FORMAL SETTING...COMFORTABLE!!! HE LOVES BLACK ACCENTS THAT GIVE ALL THE WHITES A GORGEOUS CONTRAST....HE LOVES BOLD STRIPED RUGS-I DO TOO!!!! HE LOVES BLUE AND WHITE CERAMICS...AND HE LOVES GARDEN STOOLS AND CORAL....AND HE THROWS IT ALL TOGETHER AND IT LOOKS PHENOMINAL!!!!!!.....MARK SIKES IS A DESIGN GENIUS. PERIOD!!!
TIME TO PUT AWAY THE BEACH TOWELS AND GET INTO GEAR! FOOTBALL GAMES, TAILGATES, BON FIRES.....COOLER WEATHER MEANS ADD SOME RICH WARM COLOR TO YOUR HOME! DONT PUT AWAY THE SUMMER WHITES-JUST ADD SOME COZY COLOR! COME SEE WHAT I MEAN....
HANDS DOWN...WALLPAPER IN POWDER ROOMS IS A MUST HAVE. AND AS I WAS SURFING WALLPAPER IN POWDER ROOMS, I REALIZED HOW I AM SO GRAVITATING TOWARDS NO COLOR....WHICH IS SHOCKING FOR ME! MAYBE THE BLACKS I KEEP SEEING IN THE LATEST FABRICS IS HAVING AN EFFECT ON ME! I ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU NEEDED COLOR FOR IMPACT....NOW I KNOW THATS NOT AT ALL THE CASE. COME SEE WHAT I MEAN!
MY CLIENT WAS NICE ENOUGH TO SUPPLY THE "BEFORE" PICTURES FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNERS. IT'S AMAZING THE DIFFERENCE A LITTLE UPDATE MAKES!
HERE ARE THE BEFORE PICS:
AND THE AFTER PICS!.....
