Finally, the grass is turning and we’re seeing some spring life. The end of Chicago winters can be so brutal and I’m so glad we’re in the home stretch! This is my first attempt to send a few design trend updates and some client images to inspire the new season. Don’t worry I won’t inundate your mailbox, believe me if I send a few an updates a year, I’ll take that as progress! Running a solo entrepreneur business is more work and learning than I could have dreamed of, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Thanks for trusting me with your space and supporting my small business. I get a lot of business through referrals, so if you’ve been happy with our work together, pass my name along, it would mean the world to me. Working with fun clients makes it all the more worth it. So cheers to spring and brightening our spaces with some color and pattern to energize us all!

Best,

Shannon

Happy Spring!

Wild About Color & Pattern

Ready for some color and pattern in your space? Spring is the perfect time to add some bold color or pattern! This spring saturated moody earth and jewel tones are taking center stage-think deep blues, greens, maroons, mauves, and browns. Check out the Benjamin Moore 2025 color palette above. Replenish your energy with the deep and calming hues you see outdoors. Ready for a pattern or texture pop? Textured leather walls, nature murals, and oversized geometric or florals are all the rage this spring. Check out some of fun client gallery images below. Want to spice up your space? Schedule your color or wallpaper consult.
