Colonial Meets Degas | Living Room & Play Space

I LOVE LOVE LOVE how this turned out!!!

I have many favorite impressionists,
one of which is Edgar Degas.  Degas raw
sketches complimented this design perfectly!

For this board I wanted an old meets simple, stark,

and modern design so I utilized natural wood

and raw rustic decor.  The result: a very simple
and pleasing palette.

Matt & I are going to try and make this

room a reality in our own home!!! (minus the

play area of course)  It will take some time

however, as everything, as you know, is expensive.  

But that's one of the best ways to implement

interior design; as your budget allows!

Absolutely LOVE the Broyhill Credenza

Dresser {14} - wouldn't it make a gorgeous media console?!

Next up, painting the brick fireplace...

"About the Artist" for Degas, so stay tuned &

happy decorating!
