I am sort of embarrassed to admit that when I receive an update email from a client, I do a little happy dance. It’s like I am opening a giant present. So when Kate sent me an update on their master bedroom I was giddy with excitement. She was so much fun to work with and allowed me to push the envelope with her comfort zone a bit. Here is a little peek. …………………..before She started with a great space. She was hoping to break away from the beige and infuse more pattern into the space. Here is a look at the design board I came up with. ………………………….. after I love the soft pretty tone of the gray walls with the dark furniture and yummy pops of yellow. She covered the lampshades herself with that fun floral fabric. Kate will tackle the drapes next. I think she has done an amazing job so far. Thanks for the update, Kate! Such a joy to work with you. Thank you for letting me share your new space. ……………. h a p p y f r i day this weekend we have two things on the agenda . . . .relaxing and cleaning the garage. Hmmm. Not sure how to marry the two. Did any of you end up tossing a bunch of stuff into your garage during the holiday season like we did? It isn’t pretty. Looking forward to getting it back to normal. What will you be up to?

What an amazing change already! It looks fantastic. Congrats to both of you on a job well done (or almost) 🙂
Simply LKJ says
Fantastic transformation! Love the pops of yellow.
Jenny says
Looks so pretty! I love the color and pattern combo. Cleaned out our storage room this weekend and did some serious reorganizing in the process. I love it when I get in that decluttering mode – I try to make it last as long as I can, because it's usually a fleeting feeling 😉

Nothing wrong with a little happy dance! Impressive transformation, the strong accent patterns really work well.

Wow it looks fantastic. I really love the mirror!
jamie @ [kreyv] says

Beautiful! All of it!!
robin w says
I LOVE the grey and yellow color scheme! I got very excited when I spotted those lampshades, then very sad when you mentioned she had done them herself. I am so not crafty like that, but they are gorgeous!
designchic says
It looks fabulous. Love the pop of color in the pillows, and I always love a sunburst mirror over a headboard – have one in my guest room. Have a great weekend!!
Lisa - A Room with A View says
Very pretty room and I love the grey on the walls. A real retreat.
Natalie {Designer Bags and Dirty Diapers} says

Bmarchant says
Great job! I've been looking for some new pillows for my bed but haven't had much luck with finding bold graphical prints like this. I know you can't share the source of your client's items, but just wondering if you could give me some ideas of places to look? Thanks!
Kelly at My Colorful Cottage says
The room is beautiful, love all the pattern!, Would love to know where you found the white lamps though?
Tara {The Silver Lining} says
Oh that room is so pretty, bright and fresh! The patterns on the pillows are gorgeous. We ummm need to clean our whole house this weekend…it seriously still looks like we just had Christmas and stuff is everywhere…but yeah somehow I'm still excited we have a weekend…in town…with no company! yay! Enjoy your relaxing cleaning weekend! 🙂
Amanda says
boy I would do a happy dance too over that room! Its just lovely! love the punch of yellow!!
natasha {schue love} says
Oh my goodness!!! It looks great! Love the pops of yellow and the gray! Amazing! Happy Friday C! 🙂
Allison says
I'd also be doing a happy dance over that room! It's beautiful! Both of you did a great job. The fun touches of yellow really make the room pop! Love the wall color and the fabric she chose for her lamp shades. I surprised my hubby on New Year's Day with a gift of cleaning out the garage. The look on his face when I opened the foor to show his was well worth the back pain I had the next day! Have a good weekend, Courtney!
Elaine says
awesome! So beautiful and inspiring. I love the lampshades (well, all of it really) but GREAT job on those! She should start a blog and do a tutorial on them. Kudos to all of you 🙂
courtneyoutloud says
the room is just full of fun yet also calming! me likey!
christiking says
This room is great! We have dark furniture, and I want to put grey in our room instead of beige since grey is the "new neutral". Do you have any idea what paint color she used???? All the ones I am finding pull too blue. Would love to know! Thank you.
Lil Mama Stuart says
oooh LOVE it, and it's not even done yet?!
Aubrey {All Things Bright and Beautiful} says
We just did our garage and toy purge…man, does it feel goooooooood!!! (c: And this room turned out so fantastic!!! This is the same color scheme I have in my bedroom and I have definitely been eyeing that Dwell Studio pattern for awhile…LOVE! Another fantastic job well done! I would be doing happy dances over that, too (c:
Samantha says
What a beautiful room, it has all come together. I love the lamp and the mirror is a fabulous feature.
thedistractedblogger says
Such a wonderful change. So bright and pretty.
Tip for relaxing and cleaning a garage: get to know your local teenagers and bribe them with food and maybe a little spending money. Make sure you have lemonade and a lawn chair so you can properly supervise.

Just stumbled across your blog. The best thing about this post is the way your design board comes to life in the room; all the details are there!
