When Frances sent these photos of her recent living room makeover our way, we couldn’t wait to share the eye candy. Here’s her letter:
I’m a huge fan of your site and what you do. For that reason, I wanted to introduce myself and submit these photos of a recent project that I completed in a one bedroom co-op in Great Neck, NY. I hope you find it worthy to feature on your site. It would be a huge treat for me.

Thanks for all the tips and great reading! Keep up the great work! -Frances
Is that not a stunning transformation? We even think it’s a bit reminiscent of one of our favorite designers, Candace Olson. In a word: fab. We’ve eyed that canvas above the sofa at Ikea a million times, and it looks just as amazing as we always pictured it would up on the wall in a soft and serene living space. Deeeelicious!

Hi Sherry,
Thanks for the color ideas! I have tried 4 different colors in the bedrooms, but still haven’t found a good one yet! Back to Lowe’s I go. If the stupid blue carpet wasn’t in such great shape, I would definitely have gotten rid of it by now and saved myself a lot of time!
Love this blog! Keep up the good work!
Susan

That is an awesome redesign! I have a half-bath in that shade and I was thinking I needed to do something to warm it up. You have given me plenty of color inspiration.
