THE DOMINO EFFECT

During my years as a visual merchandiser and always changing things around, one thing remained constant. Usually, you can't move one thing without moving another (and another and another) which I commonly referred to as THE DOMINO EFFECT. Well, it happens in the home too... The kitchen transformation inspired the Living Room to change up (to create a more harmonious feel between the spaces) and the Living Room change inspired a Dining Room change and the thought of using some closet inspiration...

A new FOCAL POINT was created by reusing

a photo I made into wall art

about 2-3 yrs ago...

It was time for a seasonal update

and now the driftwood color palette,

with pops of green not only unite

the Living Room to the Kitchen,

but also bring in the outdoors...

Global accessories mixed in can

transport your space to another place

Soft grays and taupe are reminiscent of driftwood

 

Simple cylinders filled with sand and

added collected coral...

I had picked these up in Key Largo

during a wedding anniversary trip.

 You can get sand for free from the beach or

pick up a bag at Home Depot for about $5

The Kitchen

The Living Room

The Dining Room Tablescape

Which was inspired from the closet

and created this look with already existing pieces

 

But now even when the table isn't set...

 

still work by reusing the elements

previously in the Living Room for Spring,

and helped to refresh the

Dining Room for Summer

 

Above: previous decor in Living Room

(and total disconnect to the kitchen)

actually work better in their new space...

Thank you for taking this tour of

THE DOMINO EFFECT

Color and texture

were the two key elements

that gave these spaces a refreshed look...

I now filled with shells Jeff & I collected in Sanibelle Island LY.

So take a look around your home, closets and all, and see what kind of DOMINO EFFECT you can come up with just over a weekend...
