Sometimes a project comes from somewhere you don't expect — like a phone call about a cabin two hours away.
I'd been working with this Client for about a year on her house here in town — Window Treatments, Bedding, the works. As we wrapped one of those projects, she asked if I'd help with her cabin at Lake Burton too. That's well outside our usual area, but I couldn't say no.
The cabin's small, about 800 square feet, and just about the cutest thing. She didn't need much privacy, just wanted to be able to close things up when she wasn't there, so Woven Wood Shades became our privacy layer underneath.
For the Living Room, we had vaulted ceilings and a window worth showing off, so we hung Drapery high and wide to use every bit of that height. She wanted a Ralph Lauren kind of look — white walls, wood tones, a deep rich green — and we found a watercolor fabric that had all of it in one print, banded in that same green to bring it out even more. A walnut Decorative Traverse Rod finished it off, easy to open and close whenever she's up there.
Then came the Pillows. We pulled from the Drapery fabric for the base, added a houndstooth in browns and tans for the side chairs, and finished with a monogrammed Pillow for the sofa — houndstooth again, monogram in that same deep green.
She called it the biggest transformation she'd ever seen. It went from blah to beautiful and completely beyond what she expected. That cabin feels like a whole different place now.
