I'm sorry for the no go post yesterday...I was volunteering in my son's classroom bright and early and ended up being faced with errands that kept me out from 8 am - 5 pm...can we say tired preggers woman much...seriously thought my lady parts were going to fall out by the end of it.
Moving on.
Today is my hoobsters birthday.
If he's reading this....a very...
...love you to the moon my sweets.
In other news, my bathroom got ripped out last night- very exciting.
I also brought in my neighbour, who just happens to be a very talented architect (PS, if you live in the GTA, you NEED to hire Wallace Brown...email me if you'd like his contact info) to discuss some layout options and we have some very exciting plans.
Things like this are likely going to happen....
...large table for crafting/homeworking...and black shelves...
...a built in daybed in the bedroom...
...though it will be this guy...
...also, black ceilings (maybe)...
...a swing...
...exposed duct work in either black...
...or white (leaning white)...
...more swings and maybe fun ball lights...
...steel windows as room dividers...
...panelling mixed with modern furniture/lighting....
...hanging IKEA glossy storage cabinets alongside antique stuff...
Or some combination of all of the above:)
I hope.
Most will depend on budget of course but in any event, it will be quite the transformation.
EXCITED.
What else can I tell you...
Oh...I picked up another new e-design client.
We'll call this one #projectboudoir.
I've been given the task of putting together a pink and white bedroom with no antiques and no gold...as you can imagine, the 'no tenants' were/are a little challenging for yours truly but I did manage to come up with this initial idea board...
...as you can see, I tried to sneak in just a tiny bit of gold with the screen but it got nixed so a white lacquered one has been put in its place.
As for my other projects...
#projectalreadyfabulous....
Our tea cups....
...and coffee pot set...
...have arrived.
And now the tray hunt begins...we've narrowed it to this beaty from Biscuit...
...or this guy from Tilly Maison...
What else?
#projectlivingdining
We might be subbing in a new sofa and coffee table...a Jonathan Adler Templeton and Platner table might just be available for a supercalafragalistic price so both are proving to be very tempting...
Goodness all around.
And I think that's all for now.
Make sure you check back tomorrow for some more nursery goodness...I've got two boards happening tomorrow from one ridiculously talented designer so yes...something you must see.
Almost Valentine's hearts and kisses.

I love you and all your ideas and designs and wonderfulness. Lucky family you have there.

ReplyDeleteWOW, big and amazing plans as usual, can't wait to see the basement come together.
ReplyDeleteohmygosh -- could there be any more fabulousness in one post?! you always bring the greatness. I'm considering framing out my wall of windows in living room, and painting black...so you try it first and let me know! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear all about your metal interior windows!!! We are considering moving and these would be a must for the new place we have in mind. Please as much as possible. I will be taking notes :)))
ReplyDeleteI have no idea why in heaven you would nix antiques and gold, but bravo for the gorgey board...have they actually seen your work??? It's kinda a signature (c; As usual, socks are blown off, jaws are being pulled off the floor, and room envy is in full swing. Mission accomplished (c:
ReplyDeleteMy great-grandmother had a daybed, and I loved it growing up. Love the idea of adding it to a study or great room!
ReplyDeleteWow, you're creating quite the fab space. Love the steel windows as room dividers - let's hope not too close to the swings : )
