A lot of exciting things going on here at JWS Interiors.  

Arcadian Home recently asked me to curate a flash sale for them. I'll be giving you a sneak peek of the sale next week. My curated collection will run June 5-June 11. Keep your eyes out for more details here!  I found some gorgeous items that I hope you'll love! 

Thanks Arcadian for the opportunity!

I have some new portfolio pictures that I'm dying to share but can't just yet. Hopefully in the next several weeks. 

Onto Links You'll Love!!

1)  I came across Benjamin Moore's 2013 Color Forecast.. These were the colors they predicted would be popular this year.

2) I LOVE this sconce by Jonathan Adler !

3) This mirror from Kirklands is a great find and price! 

4)Finally, check out this FUN, COLORFUL coffee table from CB2.  If you are looking for a real stand-out piece, this is it!

New Project: Gutting a First Home & Inspiration for New Design

Hi Everyone!

I've got a few new projects to share over the coming weeks.
 Today, I'm showing you the obvious BEFORE pictures as we just begin. 

I'm working with a soon-to-be-married couple whom are gutting a great first home and I mean --gutting. Check out these photos! It's going to be beautiful in the end!

They've tasked me with decorating the foyer, family room and master bedroom in phases. 

I'll be sharing the project with you over the coming months. I'm super excited and already bought a few things for their new home!

XOXO

AS IS NOW...

Inspiration for New Home..Isn't it gorgeous?  I hope to create this type of feel in their new place!

I bought this mirror at a flea market for somewhere in their new home.. I'm hoping the foyer..And the best part is that it was a GREAT price!

Isn't it pretty?

Thanks for the Mention/TableScape Tuesday

Happy Tuesday!

I wanted to first thank Kirsten Krason of 6th Street Design School for including my playroom & basement makeover project in her new "Good Design With Kids In Mind" series.

She pinned several photos from the project here!

Moving on to tablescapes... I found these gorgeous ideas for summer entertaining!  Use what you have--garden flowers and even fresh fruits and vegetables can make the most stunning centerpieces!

A Great Furniture Find Under $250/Natural Decor Ideas

Today I wanted to share a great furniture find...especially for all of you whom like natural and serene decor. This post is for YOU!

Check out these cool natural seagrass ottomans from Garnet Hill.

These would look great paired under a console; paired next to a coffee table for extra seating; or even next to a chair to prop your feet up.

Trick out Your Bathroom With A Tray

Just wanted to share this beautiful display on a bathroom sink. It is amazing how a simple tray can help pull a space together and make ordinary things look beautiful. Add a few simple flowers, and voila, you have yourself a nice little setup!

Enjoy your weekend!

Navy, Gray & Coral/Links You'll Love

HAPPY FRIDAY!!

Wow, it's been a whirlwind of a week here.. I've met with some fabulous clients and am very excited to be working on their projects. 

For one client, we are simply doing an update on her family room. I say update, but really it's just a matter of adding accessories, pillows, a new rug and pulling everything together. 

For this project, I thought navy, coral and gray would be beautiful. The client already owns a great modern gray sofa, so I've decided to add a navy and white rug and then we'll pick out some great pillows to tie the room together.

Here are some great examples of how well navy, coral and white can make a room stand out.

As well, I've included some links I hope you'll love!

XOXO
Jennifer

Thanks for the Mention!!//What I'm Eyeing and Buying

Hi Everyone,

I hope your week is going well!

Wanted to share with you and shout out to Caitlin Wilson of Caitlin Wilson Textiles for featuring several photos of the family room I just completed using her pillows from her collection on her Lookbook page!  As you know, she is a very talented textile designer and blogger.  
You can see it here.  Thanks again!

For today, it's all about what I'm Eyeing and Buying!

XOXO
Jennifer

I am dying over this Yellow and Black Rug! Would LOVE LOVE LOVE to use for a client project. This would look fantastic with a white sofa and pillows trimmed in black grosgrain ribbon!

Yes!  Not going to lie--this Marc Jacobs black and white maxi is so sexy, yet still completely "wear-able".  I can't afford, but I'd buy if I could!

I DID buy this affordable and chic white linen blazer!

The 3 C's of White

Chic, Clean and Classy.. The 3 C's of White!

I can't get enough. I showed you a couple months back my design board for our master bedroom.  Well, due to the volume of client work, I have not been able to move forward with it. Needless to say, it will eventually get done--with a big white headboard and bedding--my absolute favorite.

Click here to take a peek of the board I put together!

Check out these beautiful spaces using white. 

Which is your fav?

XOXO
Jennifer

Love, Love, Love, the white sofa paired with the gold scones. The art pops against the white walls. LOVE!!!!

FAMILY ROOM REVEAL! BEFORE & AFTER

I'm skipping Tablescape Tuesday to show you final photos of the family room I started back in December! 

This was for a lovely retired couple who enjoyed hosting many family gatherings and needed a major overall. I wanted to lighten and brighten the space, especially since they had beautiful french doors leading out to the patio and high ceilings.

What we did:

-Painted entire brick wall white

-Kept the great sectional and chair and had them re-upholstered (bye bye, plaid!)  

-Took down the outdated lattice wallpaper

-Painted the room Benjamin Moore's AC-31, Hot Spring Stones. 

-Painted the original dark green ceiling beams 

-Hung drapes from the top of the walls

-Created a modern wall gallery of family photos

-Added more pattern and pops of color with pillows & accessories

This was a total transformation!  Before Pic is featured last. And the sneak peek mid-project post is here. 

XOXO
Jennifer
