different kitchen and other decorating

I decide after strolling through Restoration Hardware that my house needed to flow better.  I love love this store! I came home with so many ideas from that place. Good thing they had a catalog to take home with me. Now at anytime when I want to escape I can flip through the pages and saver the design elements. If you have not been to Restoration Hardware  before the store is like a big house with each room designed in there latest style.  Here are some photos to give you an idea of what I love so much. I think it is because it looks; clean, classic, simple, rustic but modern too all rolled into one.

One trip inspired me to come home and change my design style. I started in the kitchen the red had to go.

From red to brown in two days.

Next was Bailey's room she has been begging me to change her room so it looks more like a teenager room. What Bailey you don't like all the pink and purple flowers with baby pictures around your room. How could this be? When did you grow up Miss Bailey?

A little black paint can make a world of difference.  Her white nightstand and  shelf was looking old and dirty. I think the black makes her room look older too. What do you think?

The last room I updated was Collins room.  I was not really feeling the blue bedspread anymore. The only thing I changed in his room was the bedding. Glad I did, it goes better with all the other black stuff in the room. I still have some more changes I want to do around the house. Subway art and pop art is my next project.  But it will have to wait because I am out of money for now. :)
