No Place like Home – Englewood New Jersey Residence

The biggest challenge most interior designers face when decorating is making a home feel like a home. That “homey” look may not always be so easy to achieve especially with the modern cold color palettes and furniture on the market today. Sometimes sticking to your roots is all it takes to bring back that old “spark” you’re looking to bring home. When I came across this New Jersey residence in Englewood I thought it had it all – a mix of contemporary, traditional, retro, and vintage décor all in one. You enter the home feeling like you came home – no stiff furniture, just move in, relax, and enjoy!

North Carolina Townhouse Makeover

A North Carolina townhouse got an exciting new makeover by designer Jamie Meres who assisted clients with their new rental home. Since the new couple were living here temporarily and didn’t want to break the bank, Jamie found a mix of catalog finds, Craigslist scores, refurbished items and local finds. I like how Jamie experimented with hues of grey for the walls which is totally of-the-moment for this year, as well as the amazing lamps she found on Etsy. The vintage chairs were all newly upholstered in vibrant and eye catching hues which work great for the summer months. Check it out:

Make Your Own Mini Bar with a Bar Cart

Don’t have room for a real bar? Make way for interior design’s favorite alternative: the fashionable bar cart. This cute accent piece is super functional and a great multi-purpose investment. You can use it to serve drinks and snacks, or even to hold plants, books, and other accessories when you aren’t entertaining. Wheel it around to accommodate any room for any occasion. If you get your hands on an antique one – congrats because the older they are, the better.
