The Garden Room
This was one of my first client projects, and honestly it set an unfair precedent for how much fun a job is supposed to be.
My fabulous friend Jen wanted a guest room that felt calm and uncluttered, somewhere people could actually rest without being visually accosted. No busy walls, no chaos.
For absolutely no reason whatsoever I started calling it The Garden Room almost immediately. This may have influenced the floral themes.
Jen is the queen of thrifting, and she kept turning up beautiful pieces along the way — the kind of finds that make a room feel curated and not decorated. A sewing table that had been in her family for years walked in and immediately owned the space. And the iron bed? We weren't touching that. It’s fabulous.
The result is exactly what a guest room should be: quiet, easy, and so special.

This room has the ideal amount of natural light. Sunny, but restful all day long.
The antique sewing table was a family heirloom. I placed it here, to look out in to the all important garden.
Jen found these amazing German crystal lamps at an estate sale. I made custom shades once we picked the dizzying array of florals on the cushions.
Jen didn't want any artwork on the walls when we first started. Near the end of the project she picked this cute painting of Paris.
