Here's a peek at some of the rooms in my home. I'm still decorating the other areas like the guest bedrooms and the master bathroom as well as my office. I'm always curious to see where others call home, so I thought I'd share mine with you. Please feel free to leave your comments. 


It's been a real challenge decorating my home, being that it's very cookie-cutter in style, so I try my best to make the inside of my home reflect my personality!

  3. Hi Jen! I always read your blog but never commented before.
    WOW! really cool! Thanks for sharing! I think your design is very bold and you are not afraid of taking risks! I love it and I wish I could design my home like that... I am a graphic designer but I get really picky with my decoration to the point I just don't do anything until I'm 100% sure of what I want, it then takes soooo long! ...Sorry for the long comment. Your post inspired me to keep going on my home!!!

  19. Hi Dariela,
    Thanks so much for reading my blog...!
    Sometimes I'm afraid to take risks within my home but its just a wall or a piece of furniture for the most part. You can always change it. Also I found out that unless you do it you don't always know what it will ACTUALLY look like. Unless you design it in CAD or some other program... :) I say go for it, start with a small room like a bathroom and be a little daring...

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hiya Crystal, glad to see you back ; )
    Yes i remember you mentioning something about more of my home etc.. so here it is. There should be more to come...

    ReplyDelete
  24. Melissa....the painted white chair was a recent project I attacked, it was a lot of fun and i will be taking it with me to the stationery show. : )

    ReplyDelete
  25. Belinda,
    YES...the coffee table is one of my designs. Its such a cool and interesting piece and looks so much nicer in person. It gets lots of nice compliments from friends...

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  28. I like your bathroom. what did you use on the wall?
    And I love the look of your living room. the coffee table, the chairs, couch, and that mirror are fantastic together.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Hey Dianna,
    The room is actually painted in a Ralph Lauren paint called " Turet Stair"

    Its not black but more a dark chocolate with a hint of wine color to it. Its such a soothing color to sleep with at night.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Hi Heather,
    What I have on the wall is just pieces of a New Martha Stewart scrap paper line that just came out, They sell them at Michaels craft store....and i just placed them together onto the wall to form a patchwork-like wallpaper. I purposely left the bottom undone...to give it a more unique look.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Jennifer:

    Your house is so you...I love it. Lots of lovely color and your keen eye for great design really shows throughout. My favorite piece is your recently refreshed chair (in the last pic). But really, it's all yummy! Thanks for sharing.

    The splashes of color against a more neutral palette is just my style.
    Your artwork on your mantle is perfection.
    I could go on and on but that would leave little room for others to comment.

  74. Hello DUBBS:
    I got the boots from SAM Edelman...like 2 years ago. I liked them sooo much I bought two pairs (diff colors) and get so many compliments. I don't know if they sell this style anymore, although they should. They are very comfy too!

    ReplyDelete
  75. i love your home! i'm new to reading your blog (actually I'm new to reading blogs in general), and i was just wondering where you got all of your awesome pillows from? is there one store that you gravitate to for buying pillows? any recommendations would be great, thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  76. Oh Jen this is wonderful! You've such a great eye. I love the way you can place colour together and it looks great.

    I've posted about your home on my blog.

    THANK YOU so much for including my two prints on your wall. I'm so honoured to be amongst these other fabulous artists!

    You've inspired me to get cracking on decorating my studio. The drab grey concrete walls aren't very inspiring at the moment.

  160. Your dog is a cutie and that dark grey color is lovely! Question!!! The light pink flowers on the table in the family room - are those fresh flowers? Or silk?? I've been looking for some large silk (peonies?) to keep in my bedroom! If they're silk, where did you buy them?

  161. Hi Jihan-
    Thanks! The flowers are silk, I got them as a gift. :)

  166. Oh, How I want the All in One Mac (I have the older version Macbook White :) What printer did you end up getting? The Canon from the Apple Store? What programs do you use for editing, photos and designing? You did a beautiful job with the house, by the way. My favorite is the Romeo painting. Very creative!

    I'm not a fan of wall-to-wall carpeting, and I'd have to say you have somehow made it work, perfectly!

    Wowzers.

  176. Hi it's me again asking about the paint...I'm painting my house next week and I love the MERCER color but It's hard for me to tell...is it more like a gray or more like a dark brownish chocolatey color?? also is there a nice shade of gray you recommend for a bedroom?? Thanks love your design style!!

    ReplyDelete
  177. VALERIE325:

    The color in my office (which will no longer be the color of my office) was MERCER by Ralph Lauren Paints.
    It actually had more of a forrest green undertone...but it looks like a dark gray. I thought the color was beautiful...if you like darker colors in your home. However, I would recommend MERCER in a relatively larger space - so it won't make the room look small.

    As for a bedroom shade....it all depends on the size and what you like.

    If you have a large room I would say it's safe to go with a darker gray, but make sure your furniture is bright and light-colored. With a darker gray, I would opt for mostly white furniture at that point to get a good contrast..

    Hope this helps!
