Readers Projects 4

Loving all the things you all are doing! Enjoy this sensational batch of Readers Projects!

This is the work of Lisa Pak.
She lives and works in New York City.
Lisa Pak wrote to me about a photo of a beautiful dining room I used in a post called Black And Gold Roundup: " It published in Home Magazine awhile back, in 2005". Check her out at Lisa Pak Design, www.lisapakdesign.com



Serena sent me the before and after photos of her living room. She just started a new blog.

New blogger Serena from The Urban Farmhouse


Nicole from the blog sketch42 has a cool New York apartment that she shares with us.
Her credenza is giving me an idea for mine!


Linda from Lime In The Coconut is nearly done with the big butt chair!



Katie from katiedid got some gorgeous new stools from Wisteria


Broo0ke from Velvet and Linen has revamped her living room and dining room


Reader Kit Golson from Chic Provence did a wonderful post about the shop I write a blog for


That's the Readers Project Roundup for now. Please keep sending me your photos! It's great to see all the busy hands making such beautiful things!

Thnaks so much for the mention Valerie! Wow! What a talented group! I will need to get over to some other blogs, it is clear. Love the mirrored reflection on the window treatment in Nicole's Dining Room. Love Brooke's transformation. And the Urban Farmhouse...gotta get to that blog! And glad to catch up with Linda's butt chair! It looks fab!
Great roundup! Thanks again!

GREAT POST promoting new bloggers! Fantastic spaces they've created!

Especially liked the first photo from Lisa Pack and the white faced credenza from Mrs. Limestone. I've been wanting to revamp our buffet with mirrors or a color... but that WHITE with black just might work best in our space (or on your credenza as well!)

I love love Katie's new pair of stools from Wisteria. You are so right VV, all of these projects are inspiring.


P.S. Thank you for encouraging me to consider a childrens book on the little guy's travel. I took your advice and have been researching the idea. I'll keep you posted.

* VH, WHEN-OH-WHEN am I going to learn to JOG DOWN down lil' NOTES to mention "certain delights" when I comment? (I ALWAYS forget, then can't mention them by person or project & I feel badly~~~ Aaaackkkh! Age!)~~~

There's soooo much talent here it's really hard to fathom~~~ can't wait to look up all the new/newer blogs from the "old RMS" gang!!! I've been back-reading for at least 20 minutes, and having sooo much fun "remembering when"!!

I think you KNOW it goes w.o saying this is a FABULOUS BLOG, and girlfriend, I ADOOOOOOOORE you as a BLONDE!!! It's tooooooo cute!!!!!!!!

Hope to talk to you soon! (Hugs to the huz & lick to the Cho!!!)
Love,

Hi, thought since you are interested in readers revamps I would share with you my latest staging project, it is all here in this book.

I would love to have some exposure of my work, although I realize this is not your normal venue. I would also like to hear your comments of my work. Thanks, Carol

LOVE*LOVE*LOVE the new hair! You look fabulous! Such inspiration here-I'm off to move around some furniture and re'vamp' a room or two. Happy weekend!

Marija said...

I love these pics! It's awesome seeing what talented people out there do in their own homes. Katie's room makes me want to move somewhere warm and sunny. Or maybe just live in her living room! Adorable!
