The dining chairs will be custom upholstered, using Indian design rugs, such as these. The client found a great source on a recent vacation and called me to discuss the idea and also the size of what to buy. I calculated that one runner, 30″ wide x 8′ would do one chair, so she bought ten [...] While I cannot recommend specific fixtures for the bathrooms until we have a better handle on the cabinetry design, I want to give Karen a few suggestions and build our own catalog to work from, when the time to design comes. In our effort to blend the rustic with the contemporary, it is hard [...] We create notebooks for everything! Karen has a copy of this room-by-room notebook to update as we go. There is a tab for every room with the floorplan attached to the front of the divider page. Inside will be the final space plan once decided, then pictures and information on pieces that she owns, [...] Well, the Baumer’s came for Thanksgiving and they were able to enjoy the house with their family. There were even able to ski and brought up a few more personal items for the house. We met to tie up the loose ends and we have a few furniture pieces that we want to re-order [...] I am very lucky to have had such wonderful clients throughout the years, the Baumers being at the very top of the list.

DeAnna and I were the last to leave, although DeAnna had been the on-site supervisor for the entire two days, while I took care of putting out a [...] These are just a few of the pieces of artwork and accessories that we have suggested for the house. I love the antique reproduction lithographs, which I took and had custom matted and framed. While in Vegas at the World Market, I found a few prints, such as the pine in the bottom left, which [...] Mattresses are tricky. Either a client knows exactly what they want and where to buy it and can get it from that place to Mammoth Lakes, OR, they have to trust me. The styles of mattress, even if from the same manufacturer, are sold under different names at every store. There is not a good [...] Besides the mountain of paint cans, what do you primarily notice about this room? For me, it has been the ceiling and I eye it every time I am in the house, until I decided that something had to be done. This is the billiard room and it is at the bottom of the house [...] |
