Continuing from Part 1...
Just a recap, Vada, the customer and now friend, contacted Kasey & I about decorating her house she recently moving into in 2013. The reason I was so excited about this project is because Vada had collected and inherited so many antiques it was like ToysRUs for "junk" collectors.
Vada also made it easy for us to design her spaces because she knew exactly what she wanted....sometimes....well, let's just say she knew what she wanted but can not have 4 chandeliers in a dining room. But that does sounds like a a great challenge for a future client...ok, back on track. Let's save the dining room for next week.
Kasey & I started a secret pin board on Pinterest that we all three could add too. I can not explain how great of a tool Pinterest is for design work. It gives a visual picture with out spending millions of hours cutting up magazines to paste to card board with 3 optional fabric choices. (old school, don't hate) Vada sent this pin to us and said, "I want my entry way to look JUST like this."

Vada had already had the entry way table, so I painted it a light blue. Use left over material from the kitchen chairs, grabbed the metal candle holder from the top of her cabinets, and most of the rest came from my inventory. Hashtag is all about recycling the decor you already have to save money. Vada recently fell in love with old bed springs, and she had recently picked up some from the Wimberley Market, so added them to the basket underneath. Perfect!
How did we do?
