Anthropologie Look for Less Bedroom

Today I’m sharing this recent guest bedroom makeover that I completed for a client this past week! We started with basically nothing except a plain bed and transformed the space into a cozy and layered bedroom that any guest would love to stay in. I think everyone covets that high-end and super cozy Anthropologie look especially in a bedroom, but not so much the price tag. I was able to copy the look for a quarter of the price using bedding and accessories from Target. Their new Opalhouse line in particular has a ton of Anthropologie inspired pieces. We also added these gorgeous nightstands and headboard from Wayfair which really anchor the room.

20 of the Best Modern Ceiling Fans

Old ceiling fans are a common design dilemma that can really stick out like a sore thumb and make a space feel outdated. Until recently, options for attractive ceiling fans were very limited and all fans looked about the same. Many people (me included) just have to have a ceiling fan in their bedrooms but we also don’t want to sacrifice style for function. I’ve been hunting down the best ceiling fan options out there for both my own home and my clients and have found some stunning options in all different price ranges! Check out my favorites below and click on any photo to shop that fan!

Lights, Camera, Amsden!

We are SO excited to announce that there will be a movie filming later this week inside the Amsden. The Stand In, a new romantic comedy, starring DREW BARRYMORE is going to be filming scenes around Versailles and at Wrigley Media in Lexington. Barrymore’s character in the moving owns a furniture shop and the mercantile space will be her shop in the movie! I seriously can’t believe that my little shop is going to be on the big screen and that Drew Barrymore will be inside it in just a few days!

The crew will be filming all around Versailles for scenes of the movie including private homes, farms, and some other businesses. I believe that they will be shooting outside the Ferrick Mason showroom directly across the street from us for the exterior shop scenes and all the interior shop scenes will be inside the mercantile.

Preppy Pink Little Girl's Room

Last week I installed phase 1 of this sweet preppy girl’s room project that I have been working on. My client wanted to update her daughter’s bedroom and make it more of a “big girl” room. Her toddler bed was converted to a full size bed, so she needed all new bedding and bedside tables to go with it! We started by changing up the bedding, adding bedside tables and wall sconces, and new curtains. I’m in love with this gingham bedding which is so girly and fun, but also something she’ll be able to grow into and keep using for years to come. We are also planning on wallpapering the wall behind her bed and adding some more accessories and pillows as well to finish off the space.
