I've been working on this project for over 5 weeks now and it is finally done. It was a big one! The property is located in Glendale at the top of Pacific Ave. There is a very sweet little neighborhood called Kenneth Village, if you've never been there you should drive through - really cute houses.

I think the thing I love about this project is that it shows how using what you already have can work if you can edit everything else (paint, lighting, accessories). All of the furnishings are from the two households that I merged together and edited out what wouldn't work - it isn't perfect but looks pretty good to me! I only added a few of my own pieces to finish out the overall look. Of course the finishing touches are mine but I did use a few of their accessories that actually turned out looking pretty great in the house. I had slipcovers made for every sofa & chair in the house pretty much and as you can see...white slipcovers are lovely!

So look around your house - you probably have some fantastic pieces - but the space needs to be set up differently, the color on the walls needs to be changed, lighting needs updated - it can all be done easily! Seriously...really look at the video...I used quite a few pieces in the house, just not vampire'ish anymore!

I'm going to share the transformation for you so it can appreciated! Yes...I'm patting myself on the back...again!
