BEFORE AND AFTER

Well here it is Friday and I think my week skipped Tuesday :)  

I knew I was going to have another little fun before and after for ya today so I just wasn't motivated to to a post when I felt like it was going to be a snooze.  I realize many of you take the time to cruise over here and I wanna make sure you get a little bang!

So things are full circle here at Sherry Hart Designs. Now.....my long time clients children are grown and they are calling me to help them with their first apartments!

I can hardly say no and with Hannah I had done her bedroom when she was a little girl:)

So let's take a look at the changes.  First of all I only bought one small piece of furniture.....she already had been living there a few months but it just needed to be pulled together!

Rose and I came to the rescue.....

Here is the bedroom....which as you can see just needed a little help being pulled together.

Just a few accessories.....Target vase.

Before....

After....

She had the art hung and I bought a pillow and throw!

I just pulled a few colors out of the rug.....

Before......

We hung the art for her and just added a few small accessories!

Ta Da....

You can see it did not take much!

Moving into the living area.....

Let's break it down....new pillows, larger lamp shade and just a few accessories.

Pillows came from Crate and Barrel and West Elm

Before.....

After....

Before.....

After.....

And....the kitchen!

We only had about 3 hours to do this and I think we spend 2 hours on these shelves.....haha

Then we totally had to scurry.....

I found the art at Target and then just some greenery....she had everything else so we just shopped her place....

She had bought this shelve from Ballard Designs to serve as a bar area.....when we were there we told her where to hang it.

Honestly I think we only bought the faux plant from Target....the small bowl from HomeGoods.

The art and that's it!

Here are a few shots of the kitchen shelves....

Before.....

After....

We bought the small art and faux plant from Target....the vase from Crate and Barrel and the rug and blue vase from Homegoods.....

The rest was just styling:)

In the foyer I had her Mom make some prints to put in frames from HomeGoods...and we moved the rug that was previously in front of the kitchen sink.

Before....

After.

Before....she really needed a drop station for keys etc.

Everything we found at HG's was too short....but then Rose found this cabinet at Ikea!  The small mirror and lamp came from HG's.

So funny cause I had her Mom pick it up and when she and her husband opened the box they got overwhelmed [welcome to my world]!  They actually  called TaskRabbit to put it together and she said they were great....

 And that's it!  

Getting the sweetest text from her that evening made it all worth it!  I have to say that the main reason I am in design is that I love when people are happy with their spaces.....it's the best.

Have a great weekend y'all....

PROJECT BOULDER BEFORE AND AFTER PART 6

I promise this is it....no mas.....the last of the Boulder Flip!  Maybe there are a few blades of grass I haven't expanded on.....but seriously I have dragged this out long enough:)

The master bedroom, bath, a guest room and hall bath.

Master before

The door to the right of the chest is to the smallish master bath.  We changed the bed to face the chest to allow for bedside tables...... 

New doors and windows...painted the walls White Dove.  White oak floors.

Broke into a small bedroom to create a large master closet.

Picked up this inexpensive art at Ikea!  Chair from Pier One [major sale] and small table from Homegoods.

Here is the closet....we wallpapered the ceiling in a pretty Schumacher paper

Before of the master bath

Yes it's small but there is a nice window in there letting in so much light!

This is how it looked when I left...not quite finished.

Grey penny tile mixed with a Carrara hex tile

The finished product!

We had very little left to stage the guest room....

There are actually 3 bedrooms and 2 baths on the upper level.

Here is the hall bathroom before

How it looked when I left....

Love the tile floors. The vanity was ordered online...

The mirrors that I found At Home.

And all finished!

This was my view when I left Boulder early that morning....I am sure I will remember that day as a pivotal point in my life....a different chapter.

Life is moving along for me.....like you all suggested I am leaning on my friends and family for support. 

I have had moments of happiness at an event or with friends and then it will hit me and all I want to do is stay home with Cami.  She is not used to being alone so much [my husband was retired so he was home most days] and I feel major guilt when I leave her:(

Everyday is a new normal.....

When I need comfort I turn to re-reading the incredible and supportive comments from all of you.
