A Curated Christmas: 2020

Happy, happy holidays! The other day I caught myself saying, “Christmas just starts earlier and earlier every year.” And that was the moment I realized that I am officially old. Ha! Every year I also swear that I’m not ready for the holidays, but I’ve found that those thoughts disappear real fast when I see all of the new Christmas decor start hitting the shelves. It’s just so cute! Always!!

The Kelly Project Reveal - Part I

It isn’t everyday that you get to work with your BFF on a home remodeling project, but that’s exactly what I had the honor of doing this past spring. My clients moved into their home a couple of years ago and patiently waited until the time was right to turn their dark, dated, nasty wall-papered house with too small of a kitchen into a gorgeous, bright, spacious home with a kitchen fit for a modern queen! I was hired to work with their contractor to pick out permanent finishes (cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, flooring, etc.) and then top it off with ALL new furniture and decor. This type of project is every designer’s dream. Being able to pick out *everything* from floor to ceiling in order to make my vision come to life is my new favorite thing, and I hope this project is only the beginning!

The Nyberg Project Reveal - K's Room

I had the pleasure of tackling the lil princess’ room at the Nyberg Project a couple of months ago and it reminded me of just how much fun kids’ rooms are to decorate! I love rooms decorated in neutrals for sure, but there is something about the playful colors in a kids’ room that just make me smile.

SIX FIX: The Simply Living Room

Some of you may recall that last month we held a little contest. Readers submitted pictures of a room in their home that needed some love in the form of a Basil + Tate SIX FIX. This is where we give six suggestions as to what they could do to give their space a mini makeover. It was so much fun to have free reign of this virtual design and suggest what we would do if it were our own. The reader that won the contest submitted this pic of her living room and I couldn’t resist… this room was calling my name!
