One of the many questions about our new old house is: WHY FABRIC ON THE CEILING?

The Customer Who Had It All... #interiordecorating #buttloadsofantiques

Get ready for a novel....Part 1 of 5 or maybe 6.
Vada emailed Kasey and I explaining that she had bought a house in August of 2013 and wanted our help to finish decorating. Before we scheduled a time to meet, we asked if we could look at her Pinterest account to get a feel for her style. Pinterest is a perfect tool to use for that purpose. Our first thoughts, "we got this!" Vada's style is "Hashtag". Antiques used in modern designs to create a clean homey environment.
The reason I titled this post "The customer who had it all" is because Vada had collected or inherited old pieces of nostalgia and antiques that Kasey & I treasure hunt for everyday. You will see what I am talking about in the next few posts.
Vada wanted a complete dining room, living room, breakfast nook, and entry way. We decided on a blue paint for the dining room walls and a light gray paint for the rest of the house. While Vada painted the walls and I think her husband took the SOME light switches down, Kasey & I started on the space planning for each room and working on a budget. We knew we would save alot of money by using the amazing antiques Vada already had for the small decorations and tchotchkes, so our first mission was to find the big furniture pieces.

Since Kasey & I have started #Hashtag our friends have been giving us "junk" (not junk to us) and they say, "Let's see what you can do with this!" Here is what we do. We use every little piece. Bring on the challenges!
