Back to doing what I LOVE!

Hey guys thought I'd pop in to say...I'm baaaaacckk!

I took a break from my interior decorating business to explore going back to work now that both my kiddos will soon be in college.  And ended up realizing 2 things - selling furniture (and working weekends & Holidays) is not for me, lol!  And NO... I don't want to give up my decorating business that I've worked so hard to build over the years. So now I'm back to doing what I love!  I even have a few new client projects in the works :)

I'm also ready to get back to this blog, so let's get to it!  Here are a few fun things happening around here...

So my last decorating project was such a fun n' modern little update.  Put a round mirror over a rectangle shaped table with clean lines.  Yup, it doesn't get any easier than this.  This table above is from Tuesday Morning and the mirror is from Kirklands.  Easy and affordable decorating ideas like this are seriously one of my favorite things!

Well say Hello to my new little big furiend... this is Duke! 

Duke is a 90 lbs. Newfydoodle.  Half gentle giant Newfoundland and half standard poodle.  We got Duke at 4 months old, a few months after our beloved Ginger & Bear passed last Summer.  He is simply a LOVE.  Smart, loving, and loyal...he's a wonderful addition to our family!

I chose these Sherwin Williams colors above for a client paint color consultation this Spring.  One thing I am NOT a fan of when decorating is using too much gray.  I like gray undertones, as you can see in these colors.  But I am not a fan of painting an entire house gray. 

I like to mix warm and cool colors in a home to create balance and a nice flow from room to room.   Also cream (with no yellow undertones) and farmhouse whites are some of my favorites!

So here's the thing I most wanted to share today, we're running a new promotion here at The Collected Interior!  For a limited time we're offering $25 off all our hourly design consultations.  This includes color & home staging consults as well as regular design consultations too.
