It’s always exciting to see your designs shared online, and my favorite part is reading the article titles and headlines the writers come up with. Style Me Pretty Living published a recent living room project and called it a “new take on traditional.” I love that!

Here are a few before photos so you can get an idea for the transformation that took place. PAINT made the biggest difference here, and I show the before photos you can see it for yourself! By painting all of the lower moldings white you get a very high-end and custom look, which also helps to unify the space and quiet all that busy detail.
