A Dreamy New Bedroom Makeover for Paige!

Very excited to be sharing a sneak peek of a lovely bedroom makeover for sweet Paige!

 

The inspiration for Paige's new room is Shabby Chic with pops of pale pink and mint green,

also featuring all new furniture pieces, super soft Bella Notte fabrics and mini-gallery wall.

Check out this awesome rendering of Paige's custom upholstered bed:

Love the name of this furniture finish we chose, it's "Mermaid Mist"!

Before...and Happily Ever After: Four Finished Spaces Complete!

It's been one installation after another at the Bungalow and I'm so excited to be posting the finished spaces I've been working on for Elisabeth!

The master bath is now complete!

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

I always love posting some great before & after shots, check out the master bath before:

 It was a little dark and had none of Elisabeth's glamour- so we decided to go with a gorgeous statement wallpaper, lighter finishes and custom moldings and mirrors.

I absolutely love the gathered balloon shades I did for the curved windows, they completely change the feel of the space!

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

Switching up the chandeliers and sconces was a must- I choose these beauties for their ability to blend well with the rest of the house and for their extra sparkle!

Some sweet frames and stately artwork help finish off the master bath.

So much lighter and brighter! A few extras like changing the hardware, fixtures and painting the ceiling helped make this master feel even more luxurious. 

Next up, re-designing the hallway to the playroom and incorporating an awesome gallery wall by Rebecca Jelsing:

 Beautiful frames and images!

Finding just the right runner was a challenge, but I think the subtle colors and print perfectly complement Rebecca's gallery...which leads us right on into the playroom!

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

Before Elisabeth called me, this area was an unused space just off the main entry, and was a little dark for a family room.

Now it's a cozy spot for the whole family to enjoy!

Removing the shutters and installing custom draperies was essential-and I love the prints we chose!

Custom pillows help make this leather sofa a little more comfortable, and a play table with oversized chalkboard is a great spot for drawing and projects!

So many great details in this room, the rustic, spherical chandelier is a favorite, and so is this custom growth chart from Etsy.

 The chicken wire framing casts an awesome shadow.

I chose a pale green seagrass wallpaper for the walls, a lighter white for the ceiling and a soft, off-white rug to anchor the space. The room feels much brighter and warmer, perfect for Elisabeth and her family!

Last space I have to show you is a nook just off the kitchen and formal dining area:

I loved putting this design moment together- so many great details!

This mirror was such a find- it's a stand out and really brings the whole room together.

 And here's the look all put together!

There you have it- four spaces down, and many more to go! Could one of them be in your home? I'd love to help you get started, call the Bungalow and find out! 

Elka's Master Bedroom Oasis

As you may have noticed, here at the Bungalow we have really been branching out into designing not only rooms for kids, but the whole house!

My latest home project has just been completed and I have to say it is one of my favorites...

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

My client Elka is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet, and working on her daughter Paulina's room last year was such a fun collaboration. I was so excited to work with her again!

For Elka's master bedroom, we knew we wanted a calm and soothing oasis but also a dramatic departure from its slightly dark and Tuscan look.

Check out these before shots:

What a difference!

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

 In order to still blend with the rest of her home, and please Elka's vibrant color loving husband, we chose to make several, powerful design changes to the space.

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

The most fantastic of which was this custom moulding, and the soft grey-blue paint we chose for the walls.

The colors and design perfectly describe Elka's taste, and the modern look of the chair rail moulding is a touch that completely transforms the room.

A few more awesome design elements are Elka's gorgeous new mirrored side tables.

Also loving the trim on these custom pillows!

The lovely mirrors and glass bead lamps are just ornate enough to complement the bedside chests without taking away from their incredible detail!

Deciding on the custom bedding for this space was another great experience, so many different patterns of blues and grey's to choose from! I love the looks we chose.

 The soft velvet flocking on this cream and pale blue print made it an easy choice for the shams and the duvet cover. 

 More beautiful patterns in shades of blue and cream!

For the end of the bed, we found the perfect mirrored bench and upholstered it in a complementary grey. I love how the lattice print on the soft blue rug  echoes the prints and patterns throughout the room. 

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

To help it blend better into the space, we also reupholstered Elka's comfy chair and placed it by the sliding glass door with a few of her custom pillows.

I just love how this space turned out: calm and comfortable with touches of Elka's signature feminine glamour!

Avery Paris: Classic Pink and Grey Nursery with a Twist!

We've got so many new, exciting home projects going on at the Bungalow, it felt extra special to get back to basics with a classic pink and grey nursery for first time parents Natalie and Ardo:)

The pink and grey combo might be classic favorite, but Avery Paris' parents wanted their nursery to have sleek, clean lines and simple romantic twist!

For inspiration, we drew from a favorite nursery for Stacey from the Beach Bungalow files:

 Natalie loves Kourtney Kardashian's new nursery and Serena & Lily's Collette bedding collection was another great addition to the room.

Ardo was adamant about some very special lighting for the space, so we found an amazing 5-light chandelier from Maura Daniel to illuminate the room in more ways than one!

The room itself is on the smaller size, but boasts a large closet. This piece from Newport Cottages can easily be customized to do double duty as a changer for now, and the perfect size dresser as Avery grows.

Simple clean lined pieces, like Avery's crib and a bookcase from Land of Nod are easily dressed up with fun fabrics from New Arrivals and great accessories. Check back on the blog soon for the before and after!
As always, we are here at the Bungalow, come on over and we'll help you plan your dream nursery!
