Ladies Night...

Last night was party numero 4!!!! We ended our party season with the LADIES.  I have to say if your looking for a community of women who are interesting, fabulous, and full of hope look no further then CALSTG.  I normally don't get into our church to much on the blog, but after a wonderful evening with lady friends, its just a shame not to share what we have going on.  Needless to say I am grateful for the women we rub shoulders with daily.  Thank God for all the LADIES of CALSTG.
 
















Merry Christmas!!!!

For the LOVE of Mirrors

For so many spaces mirrors can make or break a room.  While in Swiss land, G and I knew our friends needed more mirrors in their space.  We knew just a few mirrors would add to each bedroom.  Here is how it all went down….

We found the Swiss version of Pier One, which was obv much cooler, but in a similar price point.  We selected mirrors for each room and hung them everywhere.  They really added a bit of elegance and each room felt finished. 




 REMEMBER THE BEFORE: 

We shifted the office desk below the window and added a few throws to finish the space. 



We also added a matching Daddy and son chair.  Our friends had a leather recliner to begin with and when we found a match for their little one, we knew we had to buy it. 
P.S. we replaced the side tables….

More to come…..

Swiss Re-Do

When G and I arrived to our friend Jane's we took a good look at her living room and went straight to work.  G and I simply rearranged the furniture Jane had and voila we had a new living room.

CHRISTMAS RE-DO

A dear friend of mine is looking to revamp his space before 2016 hits.  When he asked me for some ideas, I was happy to rethink his space.  I am always happy to re-do a space that has great bones.  For me when approaching space I am all about WHITE BABY with a few black/blue accents.  We are going for a clean and minimal look.  

Here are a few ideas I have up my sleeve……



Don't you just love how minimal everything is.  The space my has great light so I suggested curtains go out the window and incorporate pull shades.  Since his windows are so good looking the shades can be used when privacy is wanted. 

Lighting is also so important in a space.  My friend's lighting is pretty basic and minimal, not in the best way. So, I have a few suggestions that will help the space look complete and intentional. 
Here are a couple of ideas I have up my sleeve….




More to come…..
