Our Living Room Featured at Sheffield’s School of Interior Design

 

You can imagine my excitement when I was approached by Sarah Van Arsdale of Sheffield's School of Interior Design to be featured on their website. This month they’re focusing on Contemporary Design, and found my Living Room to be just what they were looking for, and was chosen for their “Room of the Month” feature.

 

Being that I am fully self-taught in every thing I do, with no formal training whatsoever, I was blown away to say the least that a professional Design School saw something in me. Not only did they praise my design, but they did a full room analysis on my style and it turns out I’m doing everything right, who knew! You can read the feature in its entirety here, please check it out. And they also have a blog.

    By the way, thank you so much for your sweet comment on the kitchen remodel. It's no where near as fantastic as your before and after, but we worked our tail off and I can only imagine the work you put into yours, since it was from scratch. It makes me tired just thinking about all you do.

    Happy Birthday AND Happy Anniversary AND big giant hugs :)
