“I love the inlay of this piece by Serena and Lily, it creates such a Marrakech vibe that I wanted to embrace in my design. Pairing it with the shaped headboard, the great patterned rug, and the framed textile all pay homage to this same essence but without being overly matched or coordinated. To round out the design and really play off the popular pink and navy palette, I threw in the great Mottega gourd lamp and some graphic pillows for a chic look.” - Tobi Fairley, Tobi Fairley Interior Designs
* Simplified Bee’s favorite thing about Tobi’s design: Hands down, I love the framed vintage “Feathers” textile by the French engraver, painter and textile artist Paule Marrot.
"So, I love love love fabulous entryways and this perfect little ivory table is a great starting point. Throw in a pair of oversized blue and white urns from Taigan on either side. Top the sweet little table off with fashion books and a beautifully shaped double gourded lamp in a bright pop of color! I also love the geometric feel of this mirror from Zgallerie. So incredibly stylish and chic....Voila, a fabulous entryway!" – Ashlina Kaposta, The Decorista
* Simplified Bee’s favorite thing about Ashlina’s design: The pair of oversized blue & white urns are gorgeous and add great color to this chic entry.
1. Since it's a beach house we'll need a little touch of coral and this chandelier has always been a favorite. 2. I would cover all of the walls in this orange grasscloth wallpaper.I love all of the different shades of orange featured in it. 3. Yummy marigold lamp with lucite base to place on top of nightstand. 4.Our bed needs a little toss pillow pattern play. I picked out some colors from the rug and went with a diamond patterned pillow and blue ikat pillow. 5. Had to go with my go-to chic & cheap bed vendor and I picked out a arc notched bed. 6. Inlay table that I am using as a nightstand. 7. The dreamy rug that made everything come together!
* Simplified Bee’s favorites thing about Camilla’s design: The ikat rug is fantastic. I love how it pulls the color palette together. Love!
“I'm thrilled to be participating in your What Would You Do? series, and especially alongside a savvy group of bloggers. Per your suggestion to use retail items, I created a space for a little girl whose parents desired a traditional room with a modern day feel for their young daughter.
The Alepoo side table will serve as her bedside table for where she can rest her books, including Just Being Audrey. The Dwell wallcovering will give her small room a jewel box feel, creating a wonderful "wow" statement when entering the space. Her Serena and Lilly headboard paired with her Pottery Barn Kids bedding are clean and classic, two elements that give the space a timeless essence. The Madame Alexander Fancy Nancy doll sitting on her bed caters this little girls love of dolls, playing and using her imagination. Posh Tots is always a sure bet to find something special, including this rug. And because every jewelry box needs a special gem, this Worlds Away chic yellow lighting fixture adds a punch of unexpected yet complimentary color, which can be purchased through Maddie Designs.” – Lisa, Hamptontoes
* Simplified Bee’s favorite thing about Lisa’s design: Loving the unexpected pop of yellow color in the flowering light pendant Lisa adds to this sweet little girl’s bedroom!
Also, a big thank you to Tobi, Ashlina, Camilla and Lisa for participating in this series!
