While I generally recommend a neutral toned sofa, since it's spring (in theory) I rounded up a rainbow of statement sofas, all with absolutely gorgeous lines and fabrics. I love, and want, them ALL. All but the blue one are from wayfair.ca!

Armchairs! Check out these beauties. Beautifully designed chairs can take your breath away...well, they can take away mine anyway. If you use pinterest, you might be interested in following my boards; I always pin the breath-taking products (or breath-taking deals) I see, even if they won't work for any of my current projects. But who knows, they might work for you!

Looking for an affordable, adequately proportioned rug to anchor your room? Here’s a great round-up by Emily Henderson Design.

‘Rug size’ is a national problem, with most citizens buying a rug that is simply too small, thus making the room look and feel smaller and chopped up. To address this crisis we have rounded up 60 affordable rugs of many sizes today on the blog. There are budget-friendly large rugs out there, we promise.

Sometimes I put together room designs that are more for fun, and a bit to test out how far into a new style a client will want to go. This little dining room turned out so pretty. It wasn't what my client was looking for, so maybe one of YOU like it as much as I do? Any takers for this British Colonial inspired vibe?

The introvert in me wants to live in this room alone with these books and that bed.

Look beyond the dining room for the perfect spot to hang that ceiling pendant. What do you think of the Clemente fixture in this bedroom?

Working on a plan for my 10 year old son's bedroom: he wants to incorporate his favourite video game...
Decorator mom goal: find a way to do that while keeping it cozy, mature, & pulled together... AND stick to a very lean budget.
