I bought a fun table for Lucy's room to go along with her love seat back when we were doing the One Room Challenge. Caning is super popular right now and I love the texture it introduces into a room. I chose the Bodega Side Table from Selamat Designs. Here it is on our original concept board. I love the way it looks here.If you haven't taken a look at Selamat'sofferings yet - so much cool stuff... Read more
Happy Holidays all, Kate Cabiltes here!As a host with holiday guests you know of certain must have guest essentials to stock the room with, but striving to outfit a room in a cozy way can make all the difference in truly making guests feel comfortable. The country home of Ashley Putman featured on Southern Living several years ago (as well as numerous other blogs and publications including Lonny)... Read more
Hi all. Well, you've seen the nitty gritty of how Lucy's One Room Challenge room came together. Another one of my favorite pieces in her room is the table lamp from Barbara Cosgrove Lamps. Lamps are a really hard part of the design process for a lot of people. So many spaces rely too heavily on overhead lighting, but table and floor lamps are key to making a space feel finished. They add an extra... Read more
I am not going to lie to you: this PJs-as-fashion moment is speaking to me. Not in the way that the athleisure moment speaks to me -- I wear my workout clothes to work out, thanks. More in a kind of elegant-yet-comfortable way that can translate to the office, or (dare to dream) Date Night.Any fashion enthusiast worth her salt will post some caveats around PJ-dressing. These are my Top Three:Ni... Read more
As we enter the height of winter, that means one thing.... spring is around the corner! I know, it's hard to imagine as forecasts of snow are now on the horizon. But now is when you have to start planning your big spring projects. And here at Chez Davis our big spring project is going to be painting the exterior of our house. Just as a reminder here is what the outside of the house looks like now... Read more
Hi, it's Kate Cabiltes!I have been obsessing over Scandinavian interiors the past few months and with winter approaching the coziness of many scandi-style homes is bringing me endless inspiration. This dreamy living room spotted on Pinterest is filled with layers of texture and pattern making it a bit busier than your typical Scandinavian room that is characterized often by minimalism. The...

One of my favorite things about Lucy's room is her new bed. I love the Jenny Lind bed from Land of Nod but what I really like is how comfortable the entire bed due in large part to her new Leesa Mattress. There are several companies out there that offer a foam mattress that ships to your door and that you can try for 100 days. Leesa's mattressis definitely the best of these options. Here is the Read more
Hi Everyone! It's hard to believe that Lucy's room is done. I've been thinking about all the other projects I need to tackle this winter in the house - some not fun (like tuck pointing our basement foundation walls) and some exciting - like sourcing art for our living room. Speaking of art, what did you think of the art selections in Lucy's room? I loved the gallery wall and Erika Huddleston's... Read more
Many of you commented on the mirror we selected for Lucy's room. It has such a cool deco vibe and really opens up the room and adds a level of sophistication. I wanted to share a little with you on the sourcing for the mirror. I had a really hard time finding something unique and cool. Here are some images of the mirror installed.We got the mirror from Zuo Modernand couldn't have been more happy... Read more
Hey there everyone! How is the Thanksgiving planning going? Last week I gave you some details on the paint selection and painting process for Lucy's One Room Challenge bedroom. Today, I wanted to tell you a bit more about upholstering her love seat. I immediately fell in love with the lines of her little love seat when I found in on Craigslist. It was such a great find at just $50. Really... Read more
Hi all, it's Kate Cabiltes!I'm an admirer of interior designer Emily Hendersonand her quirky style, and this makeover she did on her own master bedroom makes me swoon! I love the dreamy blues and peaches paired with the soft white and tans, making the space super light and ethereal. Taking clean midcentury pieces layered with a few fun patterns and lots of texture, the space is a warm and inviting... Read more
Hi All. Well, the One Room Challengeis officially complete and I'm so excited to take a little breather. That said, there is still lots of info to share on the selections we made, so here is the first of those posts. When I was concepting Lucy's room I went back and forth about what to do with the walls. Originally I really wanted to do a wallpaper but I soon realized that was out of the budget.... Read more
