September's Room of the Month is all about creating a place at home for all your fall projects.  Buckle down at either of two complimentary Arts & Crafts style desks or curl up and read a book in our comfortable lounge chair and ottoman.  This room is as functional as it is fun.  With one desk providing ample storage for a computer, printer, and files, and the other providing an open worksurface, you can tackle any sort of project, whether it be for work, school, or play.  Click here to purchase any of the items shown.

One frequently encountered design dilemma (found especially in older homes throughout the area) is the small, cramped bathroom.  While not every budget or situation can allow for expanding the footprint, there are several things that can be done to pack a lot of punch in a small space. Here are four ideas from a recent bathrooom renovation:

1. You can really spread out by extending the vanity top over the toilet.
2. By incorporating a stripe into the floor pattern, you can balance out the proportions of the space by emphasizing the width or depth of a room.
3. By raising the ceiling and adding a clerestory window, you get both height and light.
4. Eliminating the tub and adding a shower gives you more elbow room for bathing.  The floor tile runs up the wall to the bench and ledge, which makes the shower feel even larger.    

And to think it all started here...

August's Room of the Month offers a cool respite from this summer's searing temperatures.  Relax and restore with the soothing tones of this custom bedroom design, which features a calming array of natural hues paired with pops of white.  The lightly scaled casegoods work especially well in small spaces and, when paired with the upholstered headboard and lounge chair, make even the smallest bedroom feel grand. 

The paints we used to create this look are C2: 457 Bramble, and Benjamin Moore: I-74 China White.  

You can purchase any of the bedroom pieces here.  And remember, a portion of the sales goes to our scholarship fund.
