A Pale Blue Living Room Makeover Alongside A Tan Rug

When Frances sent these photos of her recent living room makeover our way, we could not wait to share the eye candy. Here is her letter:
I am a large fan of your site and what you do. For that reason, I hoped to introduce myself and submit these photos of a recent project that I completed in a one bedroom co-op in Strong Neck, NY. I hope you find it worthy to feature on your site. It would be a large treat for me.
Here are a few of my sources: Wall Color: Benjamin Moore Silken Pine, All Drapery: Pottery Barn, Drapery Hardware and woven shades: The Shade Store, Living/entry way rugs: Decora Rugs, Entry Way mirror: Source Perrier, Entry Way console: Mitchell Gold, Entryway Chair: Ballard Designs, Entertainment Unit: Stickley Furniture, Sofa and Reading Chair: TCS Designs, Cocktail Table: Hickory Chair, Ceramic Stool: Wisteria, Floor Lamp: Pottery Barn, Desk Lamp: Z Gallerie, Accessories: Target, Home Goods, Ikea, Z Gallerie, Dransfield & Ross.
Thanks for all the pointers and strong reading! Keep up the strong work! -Frances



Is that not a stunning transformation? We even think it is a bit reminiscent of one of our go-to designers, Candace Olson. In a word: fab. We have eyed that canvas above the sofa at Ikea a million times, and it looks simply as remarkable as we consistently pictured it would up on the wall in a soft and serene living space. Deeeelicious!
