Has anyone heard of a “fandelier”? You read that right—a fan and chandelier all in one!

I recently gave my master bedroom a face lift. I really wanted it to feel like an upscale hotel room…you know like the Ritz.  So I painted it in my favorite white--Aged White by Sherwin Williams—bought new furniture and accent chairs from the Designer Library. All looked so beautiful and serene .

Here was my dilemma though; I love to sleep with the breeze of a ceiling fan but let’s face it, they are all, shall we say, not pretty!

I spoke with a friend who had just remodeled her Florida condo and apparently it’s the latest craze there—fandeliers in every room!!

Crystals give the ceiling a beautiful pattern when lit and the fan blades retract when not in use—you would never know they are there!

​It’s been a great addition to our 100 year old house that doesn't have air conditioning!

Lighting and space are two key factors in choosing a color that will create the perfect backdrop. Whether it’s soft or bold, color can be the “cause” of how we feel when we enter a room.

Will the color you choose create a feeling of warmth in a bedroom, inspire you in a home office, or create a canvas to make your artwork pop?

The spaces we live in—home—should reflect and speak to who we are.

​What I do best is to help guide you in choosing the color and designs that reflect YOUR personal style.
