2021 HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS SHOWHOUSE

Y'all....I have been trying to write this post for a week now....but Lord the week before Thanksgiving was packed with deliveries...and it about broke me:)

There were days when I really wanted to get my workout in and then I had to leave....with no shower....to get everything done.....ugh!

Sometimes you have to do what it takes and you just don't want to disappoint anyone.  

BUT.....I did get invited to the 2021 HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS SHOWHOUSE  preview and of course I did take a shower and clean myself up for that!

Let me share some of my favorite spaces and moments with you....might want to get a glass of wine or coffee depending on when you are reading this:)

This home is located in Buckhead with a little over 11,000 square feet.

  

You can find more info here

The first room I saw when I walked in was the dining room with these incredible dark walls....

Yes.....I was all in with this space!  Love the plates on the wall.....I think that is a look that will always be relevant in my opinion.

Across from the DR was the LR and it was very sophisticated and extremely curated.  My fav style!

That fireplace mantel gave me goose bumps....so pretty!

Just stunning.

It was really hard to get a picture of the LR....there was a huge tree but I got a few shots.

These chairs below had me at pink and chinoiserie:)

 

Aren't they just so interesting?  I love an unusual chair and these fit the bill!

I had a hard time getting good pictures as it was very sunny that day and you could land a plane in there with every dang light on.

Take my word....it was stunning!

There were 2 bedrooms on the main level...a guest room and the master.  I like that idea....you don't ever have to go upstairs right?

This bedroom was very pretty done in fresh greens....

With a pretty chandelier....

And cookies!  I stayed in that room for a good while stuffing my face!

The bathroom below had the most incredible light fixture....I really loved it!

The powder room below.....

That sink and those floors!

I wish I had gotten better pictures of this master bedroom.....trust me when I say it was so warm and cozy and the color on the walls was stunning!

I hate to sound like a broken record but give me a cute unusual chair every day of the week!

Cute pink and green room with the prettiest Christmas tree in it!

This was an office and those chairs.....were jaw dropping!

One more bedroom.....

Very cool....and again....curated.  Everything had that "found" look which I love!

Pretty place setting......

This was a back hallway that was such a pretty moment!

The crappy iPhone pictures were mine and the ones that were a 100 xs better were taken by David Christensen

Remember....these designers work so hard putting these spaces together.  I can not even imaging trying to do it this year with the supply chain problems.

I think the stress would have made me crazy:)

So if you go HERE there is a list of sources!

And a list of all the talented designers can be found HERE

If you want to see more try looking on the designers instagram page.

Also it is open Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sunday through December 12th.

There are all kinds of events so go HERE to see a list!

Y'all.....Thanksgiving was hard.  There was about 11 of us and I know everyone felt the absence of Nancy.

It just sucked.

KITCHEN DESIGN

FRIDAY....FRIDAY.....FRIDAY

Oh how I love you:)

So let's talk....there were some comments about my pillow choice for the sectional!  Listen I welcome all comments and thoughts for sure.  That is the thing about design....it is very subjective!

Not going to lie.....I'm not really a red person....so of course there was plenty-o-red in that rug!

It was my choice to neutralize it and you will see that there is plenty of red in the main living area adjacent to this room.....with a red rug!

And....I did start out with darker pillows but I changed my mind:)

Also....the coffee table is from Woodbridge furniture.  The console was purchased at Scott's Antique Market.

Today I have a few pictures of the last Ladisic Fine Homes project that I have been working on since February.  Architect was Linda MacArthur.

This house is actually in my neighborhood....so getting to work was pretty easy:)  I shared with you the pictures of the recently installed curtains.

Here are pictures of the kitchen.

You've seen many of these on the "gram" but here they all are together.  The one above was taken standing in the scullery....right past the kitchen is the dining area and that doorway leads into the master bedroom.....

In the main kitchen the cabinets are SW Mindful Gray....yes my new fav color:)

The countertops are white quartz with a small amount of veining in them.

The island is painted Wrought Iron with brushed gold hardware from Emtek.

The sconces and pendants over the island are from Circa Lighting.  The hood is custom.

Leading into the scullery.  I switched it up a little with SW Pure White on the cabinets and Caesarstone raw concrete on the countertops.  Same black Emtek hardware.

The fridge and wall ovens are in there along with a second smaller DW.

Pretty neutral.....and classic.  They closed yesterday and move in today!  So exciting.

I am going to a wedding in Athens, Ga. this weekend...a little nervous about it but the wedding is outside so that is a good thing.

You know what I learned the other day?  To read directions to appliances.....yup.  That there is a filter in my fridge.  Who the hell knew that?

Um....never been changed in 10 years which is not exactly a good thing.  Small leak and some hardwood damage under the fridge but it could have been a lot worse.

Dayum.....owning a house is one darn thing after another.

Okey Dokey......
