Bathroom Mood Board I

I'm knee deep in bathroom research and loving it. The choices available are so varied and plentiful and I know it's going to take a while for me to make a final decision however I created a mood board as a jumping off point.  I'm going for a timeless design since I'm never doing this again. :-)


 
  1. The Santiago Glass and Stone Mix Mosaic ($15 sq. ft) & Calacata Gold Porcelain Tile ($4 sq ft) from Floor and Depot Outlets is a great combo.  The porcelain tile looks so much like marble and it's a really good buy.
  2. This fabric from Tonic Living is great for shower curtain or a custom roman blinds and at $10 a yd it's a steal.
  3. I love lighting and this crystal pendant delivers from Overstock with a price of only $163.
  4. Who does love a great looking mirror?  This pearl beaded mirror priced at $135 will bring a sophiscated feeling to the bathroom.
  5. This bathroom vanity light has a Restoration hardware vibe to it but it cost only $84.
  6. Charcoal paint from Restoration Hardware is a nice neutral color.
  7. Last but definitely not least this Double-basin Marble Vanity  is a traditional classic vanity that will outlast all the trends and comes from my favorite site O.co  for $1009 and the shipping cost is peanuts.

Budget Mood Boards - Bedroom

Furnishing a home is an expensive task but if you do a little research you can furnish a room with all new items on a budget.  This week I'll be sharing with you some mood boards, I created  with budget friendly prices.  I'm a firm believer that inexpensive decorating doesn't have to look cheap.

Below are two mood boards I created for the same bedroom.  While the paint color, bed and side table remained the same, I switched up the accessories.

A Little Hollywood Glam Mood Board

Here's a little mood board I whipped up for a friend, she likes a little Glam in her decor but it has to be on a budget.  So I turned to two of my favorite sources, Overstock and Ebay.

A Hint of Red

Red can be an intimidating color to decorate with but you don't need a lot of red for a room to read red.
If you want a room with red in it and you're hesitant to paint your walls since repainting red walls is no joke, start first with some red accessories.
I created this mood board for a friend who wanted a room with a little pop of red.
Do you have some red in your house?

Living Room Mood Board

Well, purple is all the rage again.  I'm sure the color is probably called wine or something else but it will always be purple to me.  I've created a room using purple as an accent color, I think it would fabulous with a citrine colored wallpaper.


Would you use a deep wine color on your walls?

Living Room Mood Board

Here's a mood board I did for a friend of mine, she wanted a room with blue accents.
I've combined blue, gray, cream, browns and some black. The sofa in the mood board is her own.

Bedroom Mood Board

I know it's been a while since I posted but I'm still here.   :)  I've been busy getting the kids ready for school which starts next week. I don't know why school starts so early in the south, can school start after labor day?  I have to agree with my kids, "It's sucks".

 Below is a mood board that is to be used in conjunction with this mood board  that was created for my sister's living room.  I'm a firm believer that you should always take in consideration how one room reveals into the next and plan your design accordingly. For this mood board I went with the same soothing colors but I also used numerous graphic patterns in the bedding and pillows that can be easily updated from year to year.

 

Do you think that it's important in design how each room reveals unto the next room or it shouldn't really matter?

Living Room - Mood Board III

Here's the final mood board that I created for my sister's living room.

I'm adding the product information just in case you're curious about any of the pieces.



1.       This Fioretto fabric with its fabulous graphic pattern will be used to make pillows to spread around the room and for $25 a yard, they're definitely doable.  Use the link in the comments section to see them as curtains, they�re divine.  Erika from BluLabel Bungalow provided the link, thanks Erika.
2.       I thought long and hard about the lighting for the room and finally chose this chandelier from one of my favorite online stores.  With the crystal and barrel shade its perfect combination of traditional and contemporary design.
3.       These curtains are inexpensive with the subtle colors this curtain can be used in many different rooms.
4.       Isn�t this cowhide ottoman to die for?  Love it and the price isn�t outrageous.
5.       Don�t use just love a wing back chair, with the white leather and modern styling this would be a good place to curl up and read a book but it could easily cleaned.
6.       Okay, I�m a little obsessed with sunburst mirrors and this one delivers� isn�t it delicious.
7.       Art is always an integral part of designing a room.  These two pieces of art will compliment the room nicely.
8.       This Emmett sofa is a beautiful piece of furniture that is down filled and comfy.  I could definitely see hanging out watching TV or taking a nap during rainy days.



I love the mix of textures, what do you think?

Living Room - Mood Board II

1. This West Elm upholstered slipper chair is a beautiful accent chair and will tie the room together.
2. This mirror is a classic and will make the room seem more bigger.
3. Isn't this sofa amazing?  I love a high back sofa with low arms, it means your neck with never suffer and you can plop a pillow on the arms and take a nap.
4. You always need a little bling in any room and this mirror is perfect with it's mid-century modern feel it will be fabulous over the the sofa as art.
5. Awww paint, the cheapest way to make a drastic change, I love this color paint from the Martha Stewart line called Bedford Gray.  Gray used to be viewed as a depressing color but used right it's modern and sophisticated.
6. Ikea always delivers and this piece of art is serene and interesting at the same time and will be a great conversational piece.
7. The fabric from Robert Allen will give the room the punch of yellow without overwhelming the room.
8.  This black chandelier has high impact and will be a show stopper in the room.
9.  This graphic pillow will go really well with pillows made from the Robert Allen fabric.
10. This ottoman could double as seating and a coffee table but will not take away attention from the stunning sofa because of it's clean lines.
11.You would think a transparent table lamp would be boring, but with the modern shape and barrel shade this lamp can work for many years to come.



I'm feeling the yellow and gray right now... what do you think?

Living Room - Mood Board

My twin sister is planning to redo her living room and I'm currently creating three mood boards so give her different ideas that she can choose from.  Below is the first of three.




1. This desk is a perfect size for the room and with the stainless steel legs it brings some contemporary design to the space.

2. I featured this sunburst mirror in a Luxe of Less post.  For the small price of $40 it certainly delivers a big bang for the buck and it's freaking fabulous.

3. This small side table is also very affordable and with the open shelf she can store her some of numerous baking books.  She's a heck of a baker and I do love her vanilla rum, oatmeal, raisin cookies. They're to die for, can't you just taste them?

4. Two of these lounge chairs with their clean lines will compliment the room and would provide timeless pieces of furniture that can work in many different decorating styles.

5. Instead of a traditional coffee table, this coffee table will provide texture to the room and could double as seating in a pinch.

6. This transitional sofa will work well in any room and with its down seating will be great place to cuddle, read a book or look up cake recipes on cake central.


7. Awww, silk drapes, they would provide a bit of luxury to room. I think every room needs a bit of luxury and these deliver while also adding more texture.


8. Isn't this rug beautiful?  Even with its geometric pattern it's not busy and will ground the room.


9.  Every room needs a little art, and these pieces deliver serious impact without being overwhelming.

10. I'm a sucker for lighting and this chandelier would be perfect, it's pure eye candy.  You know this is going to be conversation piece.


So what do you think, do you like any of these pieces?

Target Mood Board

I have a friend who loves loves loves Target. Did I say she loved Target?  If I call her on a Saturday or Sunday, 75% of the time she's in Target.  She thinking about redoing her living room and I thought what if the entire room was decorated with only Target products.
She loves blue and I think that this soothing blue would look great in the room.

Here's the mood board I whipped up for Target's best customer:



1. This Home Fretwork Rug is a good start for the room. Even though it's monochromatic, the raised pattern gives it just enough interest and elegance.

2. I firmly believe every room needs a little bling and this mirror definitely delivers. Since the mirror only costs $80 the price is well worth it.

3. This side table is a great piece with clean lines.  The drawer will be a good place to store small things.   For a $100 it's a great buy.

4.  This lamp also has a little bling with a shape that is very modern and takes up little visual space.

5. Ottoman's are such versatile pieces, this leather ottoman also includes storage and doubles as a coffee table and extra seating.

6. This Manhattan TV stand with its clean lines is a perfect fit to this living room, it can hold all the stereo components and books if need be.

7. Isn't this pillow darling?  With its intricate scroll work, two of these would look great on the brown sofa giving it a punch of design.

8. Two of these stripes slipper chairs won't take up too much space and the stripes gives the room some color without overwhelming the room.

9. The leather sofa is a classic and will last for years to come.  It will anchor the room and provide ample seating and a nice place to snuggle or take a nap.

What do you think; isn't Target a good place place to shop?

RMS Mood Board

A RMS user requested some help with her living room.  I think her room is off to a great start don't you?
I've added some accessories that I think will complete her room if she keeps her rug. :-)



1. Mirror - Z Gallerie  - This mirror is a classic and will give this room a great impact and won't compete with the rug.
2. Window Panels - Ikea - These panels are modern and long enough to cover those vertical blinds plus with a $40 price for two panels you can't beat the price.
3. Ottoman - Overstock  - This ottoman is great as a coffee table.  The open bottom won't close the space in.  It's a great place to store remotes, magazines or even a laptop and can serve for extra seating in a pinch.
4. Side Table - Target  - These inexpensive side tables will be a great addition to the room.
5. Orchid - Kohls - I love an orchid and if you can get a real one to grow getting a red one would definitely make a room pop.  If you're like me..."black thumb girl" this orchid would get the job done.
6. Lamps - Walmart - The lamp is beautiful and would complement the room, plus the price is up my alley.

Soothing Master Bedroom Mood Board

I'm in the process of giving my bedroom a facelift. The current color is a mustard gold color and even though it's not a bad color, it didn't feel soothing to me and closed in the room since the color is so strong.

Here's my before picture, as you can see I already have the bed but it really blends into wall and doesn't look impressive at all.



Below is the mood board for the facelift I will be doing in the coming days. I'm hoping to get it completed before Christmas. I will definitely use the colors and the bed, but everything else is subject to change as work on the room as my budget is tight.




Any sugguestions?
