• • Interior Decorating
  • • New Home Construction/Post Construction Interior Decorating

    • Small Space, Big Impact - Powder rooms are a great place to go bolder than you would in the rest of the house. This tiny powder room has a style all its own with a unique wallpaper, lighting and just the right amount of accessories.	Formal Dining Room -  The red damask wallpaper sets a traditional, formal tone along with the grand painting. But the room remains welcoming to guests with slipcovered chairs and the red glow created by the wallpaper, chandelier and sconces.	Formal Living Area- What to do with all those built-ins? Display books, of course, but what about collectibles? Here, we are displaying the homeowners' collection of French dinnerware. The colors and style complement the rest of the decor, and the homeowner gets to enjoy them every day!	Relaxing Master Bedroom - The walls of this master bedroom were painted a deep, soothing green to create a relaxing retreat at the end of a busy and stressful day.
      Creative Home Office -     custom built-in desk and cabinetry, custom window treatments and side chairs, furniture and accessory selection and design.	Cozy Great Room - Who says a large open floor plan can't be cozy? With the red paint on one wall, comfy but elegant sofa, custom window treatments to soften the hard lines of the windows, this great room feels open yet intimate.	European Styling, Modern Convenience in the kitchen - Custom cabinets with a rustic honey-brown stain taken all the way to the ceiling set the tone for this kitchen. European touches abound, but high-end stainless steel appliances assure the cook will never want to leave this kitchen!

  • • Spicy Living/Kitchen Makeover

    • From bland and beige to warm and comfortable! These clients wanted to warm up their builder beige walls and break up their stained concrete floors. With a custom design plan, Candace brought all elements of the room together - new custom chaise sectional, comfortable recliner chair, custom leather ottoman, beautiful area rug, custom window treatments, custom pillows, new artwork and accessories now reflect the owners' relaxed and fun personalities!	View into kitchen - a few well-placed accessories in the kitchen bring color and life to that side of the  large space. The two rooms are tied together with color and style.	Living Room Before was bland and boring and did not reflect the homeowners' warm, fun and relaxed personalities or the home's architecture and quality.	Fireplace and Media Wall - To make the fireplace more of the focal point, the wall was painted with a green faux suede treatment to give some texture and dimension. New artwork was selected for its size and colors that complemented the room size and spice tones. To keep the flat panel T.V. from being just a black hole on the wall, a credenza was placed under it and accessorized to soften the harsh lines of the T.V. and bring color to the wall.
      Fireplace and Media Wall Before - This space felt cold and boring. The flat-panel T.V. was lost on this long wall and turned into a black rectangle when off. The T.V. became the focal point instead of the beautiful fireplace.	Custom window treatments - frame the windows and soften the hard rectilinear lines as well as tie the colors of the room together with the spice panels and green stripe toppers.	Who says a large space can't be cozy and comfortable too? All the space needed was color, fabric and texture and now it is warm and inviting!	Forgotten Area in the Entry - This small wall under the stair was lost in this large space but we felt it needed something. Not wanting to block the view into the living room, we chose a slender table with an open iron work base that complements the iron railing, topped it with a lamp, mirror and floral to tie in with the living room's colors, and the space is now a welcoming area to greet guests.

  • • Kitchen Transformation

    • Contemporary Design on a Budget -Raised panel molding insets were added to the builder-stock cabinets, then painted a medium latte brown. Next came dark chocolate quartz countertops, a decorative tile backsplash featuring glass mosaic tile behind the sink and new lighting. New dining set, custom window treatment and artwork and accessories pull together the look - all without any demolition!

• • Custom Window Treatments

  • Frame Your Windows Without Obstructing Your View - These faux-silk panels with contrasting green stripe bands sit between the set of three windows and perfectly compliment the style and colors of the newly-decorated living room without getting in the way of the homeowners' view to their back yard.

    Living Room Treatments	Home Office Custom Window Treatments - Shimmery "eyelash sheers" filter harsh sunlight while allowing plenty of light in for work during the day. Top panels can be pulled closed for privacy at night.	Great Room Panels and Toppers- Soften harsh lines of windows and frame the view without blocking it. Blinds and shades may be closed at night for privacy.

  • • DreamDrapaer Design - Spicy Panels With Contrast Toppers

    • The clients agreed the bare set of three rectangular windows did nothing for their living room, but did not want to obstruct their view...	In DreamDraper, Candace was able to show her clients how the simple faux-silk panels would bring color into the space and soften the harsh lines without obstructing their view. She also added contrasting green stripe toppers to bring in the green from the sofa. As a finishing touch, chocolate tassel fringe was added between the two, tying in the brown accents in the rest of the space.	Completed Panels - color, beauty and softness without obstructing the view. Her clients were thrilled!	Window Treatments are the Icing on the Cake of this Beautiful Room
