I have officially launched <a href="http://www.oliviagraysoninteriors.com/edesign/" target="_blank">Olivia Grayson Interiors E-Design</a> as of this week! What does this mean, you ask? It means that you can hire a professional interior designer from the comfort of your own laptop and have a full scale design plan for your space delivered straight to your inbox!<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
After working with clients in Utah, California, Florida and Washington DC with such ease, I decided it was time to keep my business evolving and move forward with this opportunity for clients who may not live nearby or have the free time to meet with an interior designer. I have worked with clients across the country in full scale remodels, new builds, and simple one-room redesigns. <br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Another exciting element to this launch is this is also available to those in the Richmond, VA area! In an ever-changing world of DIY, pinterest-loving, and just plain tired and overworked mamas, this can be for you also! It is a complete game changer to have a professional design the space without trying to cram one more appointment in your already-too-full schedule! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I would LOVE to hear about your space and design needs. Please check out my <a href="http://www.oliviagraysoninteriors.com/edesign/" target="_blank">detailed E-Design plan</a> on my website! Your space that you have been waiting to refresh is waiting!<br />

He is an extremely hard-working man and devoted husband, father and grandfather, leaving the office waiting area low on the priority list for a very long time. His only request was to try and reuse as much furniture as possible, so the "This End Up" had to stay. <br />

What we did:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Sand, stain & reupholster furniture (requested to keep per client)</li>
<li>New end tables and coffee table</li>
<li>Gallery wall of pen & ink wall art in gold frames</li>
<li>New cornice boards</li>
<li>New lamps & accessories</li>
<li>Removed outdated art & overgrown plants</li>
</ul>
<div>
It was a simple and quick (but very much needed!) update. What do you like best?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you are in need of any updates, no matter how small, please contact me! I would love to hear from you! </div>

I love working with clients who have a vision but still enable me to exercise my talents and lead a project into completion! The sweet family who this bathroom belongs to were involved every step of the way, but entrusted me to keep the bathroom classic with a touch of on-trend accents for their teenage daughter.</div>

Traditionally, the dining room is usually reserved as a more formal room in the house, at least in the South. When we built the house, it was one of the first rooms we furnished because we love to have friends over. We wanted anything but formal because we wanted it to fit within our lifestyle and it was extremely important for every room to be functional. Most of the furniture you see is from Ethan Allen. We went with a Farmhouse style table and then more traditional fabrics on the chairs to dress it up a bit. You will find us hosting children's cookie decorating parties, celebrating birthdays, and possibly even the boys riding their tricycles through here!</div>

Recently, we repainted this room to more of a greige instead of the darker and brighter green it originally was painted. I could not love this color more. The window panels are custom made to puddle on the floor and in a more modern fabric to keep it casual.</div>

Initially, I had a simple wrought iron chandelier installed over the dining room table, but was never in love with it. After a few years of living with it, we had an electrician close the box and install two new boxes to hang these open styled lanterns from. I figured they were timeless in a house like ours on a farm.</div>

The corner china cabinet was my grandmothers and houses all of our wedding china. I have been wracking my brain for about 10 years on how I should redo it. I want to absolutely be sure of the changes before I repaint, wallpaper, or restain it, so I have not touched it yet! It's pretty low on the priority list right now.</div>

It's about time I catch up and get my creative juices flowing with this blog! 2013 apparently ended in May on my blog, and for that I apologize! Life has been crazy, busy, and beautiful with three little ones running around. I'm passing a bit of the blame to this little babe, Harrison Jude.<br />

I am trying to make this year all about simplifying and enjoying our little ones because we all know how quickly time flies! My dear friend, Ginny, of <a href="http://ginny-oosthuizen.squarespace.com/">Ginny O. Photography</a> is helping me spruce up my website by taking far better pictures than I can produce. I thought I would just jump right in with a tour of our newly decorated master bedroom. In keeping with my need to purge, clean, and simplify, neutrals seemed the way to go this time around. <br />

I am all about color, but after spending so much time over the past four years in this room with newborns during feeding times, during middle of the night crying sessions, and the couple of months I spent on bedrest, I wanted a major change. I loved the paint that was previously on the wall and kept decorating around it; then, it finally hit me that the paint was what needed to go! I feel like I can finally breathe and truly relax in here!<br />

Our bedding is layers and layers of whites, linen, and greys. It is more relaxed, casual, and easy to throw together in the mornings when we are trying to get three kids and ourselves ready and out the door. I like to think of it as imperfectly perfect.</div>

This very long overdue post dates back to last fall, when my husband tackled nesting project #435. When designing our home, we purposely placed the study by the front door in hopes of me one day starting my interior design business. Fast forward through eight years of marriage and three children, and we ultimately decided it would be most functional to temporarily serve as a play room. You may have seen initial progress <a href="http://oliviagraysoninteriors.blogspot.com/2012/09/playroom-in-progress.html">from this post.</a> I wanted to have a bright and cheerful space that they could call their own.</div>

After debating whether or not to have built-ins made professionally, we decided to hit up IKEA and spend less money on more kid friendly furniture!</div>

And...the infamous stenciled wall. I believe it took Jeremy about 2 hours a night for 12 nights in a row. He loves to paint and didn't purchase the zero-VOC paint, so I pulled my preggo card and opted out of this project. I'm not sure I could have helped much anyway since we only purchased one stencil. Everyone thinks it is wallpaper - that is how much of a perfectionist he is and how great it turned out!</div>

Lastly, this was a Pinterest project that will allow us to keep track of their heights for years to come. I much prefer this idea to drawing on a doorframe so that we can move it around within the house. We were able to use all moveable pieces that can later be integrated in their bedrooms or other parts of the house. The kids have thoroughly enjoyed their own space and mama has enjoyed not having toys all over the house (when everything is in its place, that is).</div>

Jeremy designed and installed the board and batten treatment on the walls back in the fall. They are painted a light grey with a navy accent on the above walls. I found a small tufted chair at a local thrift store and had it reupholstered with new padding and fabric and painted the wooden frame a darker grey. The side table was a project I dreamt of during my nesting phase in the last trimester of pregnancy. Thankfully, my husband is fabulously talented and can whip up something from a sketch!</div>

The dresser is my favorite part. It is a vintage piece I scored about 6 years ago at an antique store in Farmville, VA with intentions of turning it into a vanity. I decided not to last minute and thankfully hung onto it for later use! Jeremy sanded and painted the frame a bright neon green. The chrome cargo style hardware was installed to bring a more masculine definition to a curvy piece of furniture. You can see the wood grain detail better in a picture below.</div>

In honor of my pilot brother, who flies a C-17 for the USAF, we scored a 63" wide vinyl sticker of one on EBay. We then stained a hodge-podge piece of wood to give it a vintage vibe and then trimmed it out with a darker stained and polyed frame as a finishing touch. This fabulous piece of artwork cost us less than $50 and serves as a main focal point in the room.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This client wanted some quick and easy updates to her current study to help brighten the room and make it a little more feminine. Her only requests were to keep the paint color the same and the desk/shelving unit in the room.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We added:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;">a gallery wall of eclectic frames</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">new rug</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">new seating area furniture pieces</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">some new accessories while also incorporating some existing pieces handmade by her children</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">new window treatment, installed higher to allow for more light in the room</li>

The side table next to the reupholstered chair was the missing piece to the puzzle of Harrison's nursery. Having worked for a plumbing company and being the daughter of a contractor, I knew galvanized pipe would give me the exact look I wanted.<br />

<i>Notice the highly appropriate notepad I sketched this on...</i></div>
<br />
So the next morning, we all set out in search of the sizes we needed. One trip to Ferguson, Lowe's and Home Depot gave us everything <strike>we</strike> Jeremy needed to execute my table! Thankfully, my husband was psyched and could whip this up in an afternoon just based on my sketch!<br />

Didn't he do an amazing job? We used a piece of wood that already had a reclaimed vibe and stained it in an espresso color. Jeremy was also able to stack two pieces together to give the surface a more substantial look.</div>

I have been slacking on posting the work I have actually been doing because I have been that busy! My business has truly been a blessing for our family over the past year. It has allowed for me to pursue my professional dream of becoming an interior designer, a more flexible schedule, and more time to devote to our children. I figured a day of being snowed in with two two-year-olds and an infant is the perfect time to catch up. Who needs a nap when you are getting increments of sleep two hours at a time?<br />
<br />
Remember the <a href="http://oliviagraysoninteriors.blogspot.com/2013/01/client-family-room-progress.html">progess pictures I posted</a> a while back on this client's home? Well, here are the final snapshots after our install! We were waiting on one console table when I took these, so I will try and make it back sometime so you can all see the true finished room!<br />

She already had plans to tear down walls and move her kitchen into a new addition. I wanted to design a space that would feel more relaxed and calming than before. <br />
<br />
We are still waiting for some furniture to be delivered in the next week or two and need to finish styling with the final accessories, but I wanted to show off a few snapshots of the current progress. I tried to take pictures without the Christmas decor, so you will have to wait for pictures of the entire room!<br />

My current color palette is very warm, cozy, and inviting. But I am OVER the browns and tans. Over it. While I would love to completely overhaul everything, I am trying to be sensible and keep in mind that we (reluctantly) went with a medium toned oak floor and that is not negotiable. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We originally wanted to have really dark espresso stained floors with lots of knots, handscraping, and character. What we ended up choosing what a medium toned floor that still has a lot of knots and character, but it was more of a compromise (on what we wanted and price). Lesson learned: always go with your gut even if it means you are going to have to vacuum a lot more.<br />

Current color in main living areas, foyer, and upstairs hallway</div>
<br />
<br />
So, although I still like the color we painted throughout the main areas of our home, Decatur Buff by Benjamin Moore, I am in the mood for something lighter, brighter, and gray color. While I love the soft, cool grays, I am going to have to lean towards a warmer tone because of the floors. I am ninety percent sure we will go with the test color we purchased, but going to paint an entire wall before committing the rest of our home. <br />

Target number one did not only NOT have the Nate collection out, we were directed around by a Target team member for about 40 minutes before we politely said, thank you for your time, but we'll come back later. How do these peeps not even know who Nate Berkus is? For a hot second, I thought we were g to shop first in the back room, but no such luck!<br />
<br />
Target number two featured a barely picked over FULL collection on display and in stock! Victory! Here are some of our faves. I scored a small slate picture frame for my bedside table, but left most of it on the shelf for other devoted shoppers. If only I had a bathroom in need...<br />

By changing the color palette on the exterior of her home and throughout the kitchen and dining areas, we were able to create a totally different look.<br />

We selected the perfect paint colors to give the exterior of her home a clean, crisp finish. It was previously painted a light yellow with apricot colored shutters. Didn't <a href="http://widespreadsolutions.net/">Widespread Solutions</a> do an AWESOME job?!? I love the pop of light teal on the front door!</div>

The kitchen and eating area also received a fresh coating in different colors. We also selected a new color for the buffet, which was an antique piece of furniture. The bright color and new knobs gave it more of an eclectic and "Anthropologie" type feel.</div>

I had previously come across similar items from Pottery Barn, Ballard Designs, and other retail stores which were all selling mirrored candle sconces starting at $50 a piece! So imagine my excitement when I found these gems for a fraction of the price!<div>

I continued to layer all three finishes until I got the look I wanted. The key is to keep moving your arm the entire time so nothing looks too spotty.</div>

I also blotted the finish with a rag in between the last couple of coats to give it more of a mercury glass feel. I was going to add some dry brushing to finish off the look, but in the end was happy with the look achieved solely through the spray paint. I honestly think you could use this inexpensive and simple technique to 'mercury-glass' anything!</div>

I, however, cannot get enough of Target's designer mashups. After lots of googling and searching for what they have in store, I am proud to say I am counting down the days until <a href="http://pressroom.target.com/news/target-debuts-exclusive-home-collection-233103">Nate Berkus' line</a> debuts at Target this month! In case his name is ringing a bell, but you can't recall why, he was made famous by designing for Oprah amongst other celebs, and has his own show (which unfortunately doesn't air in the small city of Richmond, VA).<br />

And, in the retail spirit of getting excited for Christmas before Halloween, I am even more excited to see what Target will stock its shelves with this December. They are partnering with NEIMAN MARCUS to foster affordable styles by 24 different designers we all know and love! Did they really just say Marc Jacobs, Diane von Furstenberg and Jason Wu? Merry Christmas, to me!</div>

We worked on the kids' playroom all weekend long... Jeremy painted, I supervised. And then after everything was put together and in place, I organized. And organized some more. With one trip to IKEA and three to Target under our belts, I present to you a few snapshots of our progress so far. </div>

I absolutely LOVE this craft table and have to give a shout out to <a href="http://strawberry-chic.blogspot.com/2012/02/pottery-barn-kids-table-diy.html">Strawberry Chic</a> for having a fabulous online tutorial for a knock-off Pottery Barn table. Jeremy whipped up this gem in two hours for $41! Yes, you read that correctly. And you can find the look at Pottery Barn for $200.</div>

Years, people! Our desktop crashed a few years back and with the luxury of wi-fi and laptops, no one goes in there. It is really the only truly masculine room and houses all of Jeremy's sports memorabilia. Well, not all of it, but what I could tastefully display without it looking like a shrine to the Redskins or Rickey Henderson.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The original intention of having the study by the front door was so that when I one day started my own business, I would use this as my home office and studio. I currently have a small room upstairs over the garage that serves as my office now, but with two little ones and another on the way, we need the room. I guess I should rephrase that. Our little ones need the room.<br />

I have been perusing pictures this week to find inspiration for their little space. With my parents on the schedule to babysit for a quick trip to IKEA, we are ready to roll with this project! Stay tuned for pictures this weekend of the progress - and expect my favorite signature colors: blue and green!<br />

It's no secret my two favorite colors are blue and green (check out my logo). Thankfully, my client loves them as well! We updated her guest bathroom with pops of navy and kelly green to brighten it up. <br />
<br />
The shower curtain was custom made at a much taller height than the existing to show off the height of the room. The homeowners had recently painted the bathroom and replaced the countertop with granite and the faucet with a brushed nickel upgrade, so we incorporated all of these elements into the new design.<br />

When <a href="http://www.oliviagraysoninteriors.blogspot.com/2012/04/high-point-market-eye-candy-inspiration.html">I visited High Point, NC</a> for market a few months ago, I stopped by the Legacy Linens showroom and fell in love with their beautifully coordinated bedding linens! I am always trying to think of better ways to integrate different textures, throws, and coverlets on our bed to make it more unique. If this doesn't inspire you to makeover your bed, I don't know what will!<br />

About a month ago I went to <a href="http://www.oliviagraysoninteriors.blogspot.com/2012/04/high-point-market-eye-candy-inspiration.html">High Point Market</a> to see all of the latest and greatest in design. Of course, a girls trip to a different city is never complete without dropping into the local Anthropologie for some inspiration and splurging. Some very much needed splurging. I was so stoked to shop without a double stroller and actually be able to try on jeans, I didn't know what to do with myself! </div>

</div>
<br />
My very first trip to High Point market was such an amazing experience! With over 180 showrooms at my fingertips and only two days to cram it all in, I would not have been able to cover the ground I did without my friend, Joanna. Having been to market several times before herself, she knew the vendors we would not want to miss out on and I added a few lighting vendors I have worked with before to create our ultimate checklist. I made some great contacts and just as important, feasted my eyes upon inspiration to keep me going for miles! <br />
<br />
Obviously, the interior design industry and the fashion industry tend to mirror each other, but I never expected to see the EXACT same colors and motifs at market as I have in InStyle, Vogue, and Elle. Amazing. Prepare to be inspired... I'm sure you will want to redecorate or renovate at least one room in your house after drooling over the pictures below. And if that's the case, let's chat.<br />

I always have excuses after taking a long, unexpected hiatus from the blog. I love this blog and putting a bit of design inspiration out there, but man, it is not as easy as it looks! Big changes have been happening in the Cooley household over the past month. <br />
<br />
I left my full time job after eight years. It was my first and only job after college, but it was time. I have always wanted to start my own design company, and the opportunity just kind of presented itself. You know when you keeping getting signs in life that all point in the same direction? It just kept happening to me! I am finally starting to feel the reality of leaving, but I think I was in denial for quite some time. I am enjoying working for myself and spending more time with my family. Especially on the weekends!<br />

This weekend will be my first official trip to High Point Market! I am meeting up and rooming with a college friend who is a market veteran, so I am super pumped for her to show me the ropes! I know I am going to find lots of inspiring things to photograph, so stay tuned for upcoming posts! I'm back in the game, folks!Jessica / Olivia Grayson Interiorshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17999154998402156993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970944384076239508.post-67726741799929961042012-02-22T15:21:00.001-05:002012-02-22T15:21:48.254-05:00Oh, how I love antiques!A while back my college friend, JoAnna of <a href="http://clinerose.com/">Cline Rose</a>, posted about a hidden treasure in Leesburg, VA called <a href="http://luckettstore.com/">The Old Lucketts Store</a>. She has actually posted of her great findings several times, so I was super excited when we drove up to visit friends in the area! Even though Lisa was pregnant and on bed rest, she was dying to get out of the house and we decided to make a quick trip while my two were napping!<br />
<br />
So, while this post may be well overdue, it's never too late to make a trip to see for yourself!<br />
