A Sneak Peak

Home painting and LR reno update.

The dust has been flying and the paint cans popped around Casa de Moore.
If you live in the Atlanta area, 
Friendly Monster Painting Co.is THE best. The attention to detail is superb, not to mention how they clean up.  Impressive.
They skeered me half to death by extending a ladder up two stories to get to the 'trays'. 
I am very happy with the paint choice, 
SW 7647 Crushed Ice. 
Did YOU notice a change in color?  Mr. MD didn't!
He had to ask....too funny.
My grandma "Punkin's" sofa back from the upholsterer, she was the envy in the shop. (Chong's Upholstery, Marietta.)  See here for before.  Will add color in a bolster and some other pillows.
Table skirt finished and chairs upholstered too. Found  the aubergine patterned fabric to make lumbars and bring in contrast to the gray and yellow.
Slate window treatments...coming.

On the hunt for an outstanding piece of contemporary art for over the sofa.  Love abstracts and mixed media.

Hopefully it won't be too long to pull all of this together.  Good things take time...patience is NOT one of my virtues!

  9. I was thinking your pictures look like a magazine shoot. Then the business Nikki rose up and wondered if you can write off some of these things as business expenses. You certainly can use them to promote Moore Designs, and you should. Maybe ask the accountant.

  10. Thank you SO much for alerting me. I have family in town and a brother in the hospital so I haven't been leisurely blogging. I would not want to miss this!
    Gorgeous! You painted the wood black? Love it all.

  11. Renae, This is going to be sooo wonderful. I know your just tickled pink. Punkins sofa is divine. Funny that your husband didn't notice the paint change. I could shave my head and Don wouldn't notice. I know he loves me...but what is it about a man? Can't wait to see the final reveal. XO, Mona
