One of the biggest joys in my life is making others happy...I believe this is why I have such a huge love of "one day room makeovers"...arranging Your Stuff...it is all Your Style...however it is Only Better when I have finished! And clients are so HAPPY...your happy, I'm happy...the world is a better place. (well maybe not that big of a deal...but there is a little more Joy for sure!)

| BEFORE |

| AFTER The homeowner specifically requested all existing furniture be used and she liked having two distinct seating areas. Which is a good thing given the amount of furniture and space! |
 |
BEFORE - Right of fireplace
Obviously,
all of the artwork on the coffee table was not normally there.
The homeowner had her foyer and living room painted (bye-bye stripes)
She
had already started preparing for the painter when these pictures were taken!
The rug originally anchored only this side of the room. Placed in the
center of the room – it marries the two seating areas together. Now the room is
unified, yet distinctly 2 groupings of furniture.

AFTER
Notice her sons award plaques found a new home on the coffee table VS the fireplace mantle...now mama & sons are happy :)
Another AFTER
The beautiful candelabra's came off the mantle to create a beautiful tablescape on the right. This also creates some visual weight to help balance the book case at the other end of the room.

ANOTHER BEFORE - left of fireplace
I had to breakdown this book case...good thing I have an assistant!
See the doors (intentionally) blocked by the sofa?
the doors are now concealed by the bookcase as well as creating a stunning focal point
|
| See...aren't you happy now? Imagine how happy this homeowner is and how much fun I had arranging! I heart arranging :) Do you? |
