Watery Tones...

I love helping friends and family with design projects.  My sister is working on her new family room and we have been inspired by colors found in water. I am loving the mix of taupe/ gray and watery blues to make for a relaxed space.  Good ole Pottery Barn came to the rescue with two fabulous sloped armed waterfall skirted sofas, done  in fantastic Perennial fabric. This fabric has been my go-to fabric for anyone who has children or pets since its indoor /outdoor and stands up to stains. Here are a few things ordered and ready to go now its just finding a console table, lighting, and accessories!

Room color choice.

Love the sofas!

Still deciding whether tray or no tray is in order here!


Rug"taupe sisal", blue velvet for ottoman and pattern for throw pillows!

Existing cool toned leather chairs.

Hoping to wire in a great lantern!

Now just console, extra small upholstered stools and accessories and of course art!

    Love this palette, there is something so incredibly soothing about it... I love the look without the tray but with the tray is so practical, and functional. Have fun, looks like a great project!

    The colors are gorgeous and love all of your picks. I like the ottoman without the trays, but the trays would be so functional!
