Laura Covington Interiors

Everyone is “going green” these days. With a certain client of mine, I decided to take the color and run. By simply painting and adding new lighting, hardware and accessories, I completely freshened up the look of this master bathroom. Believe it or not, the chair cushion was originally a sofa toss pillow that I found stored in the back of my client’s closet. The toss pillow was covered in a beautiful embroidered Ralph Lauren fabric that I had remade into a box cushion for the seat of the lacquered green French chair.

During Christmas season, we are all trimming our trees and preparing our homes for family holiday celebrations. In addition to pulling out long treasured Christmas items to delight in the spirit of Christmas, it is not too late to make a few simple changes that will liven up your décor. By applying a fun and different trim to your pillows, draperies and even chairs, you can give your home a fresh new look that will carry long into the new years to come. Applying trim is a simple and inexpensive way to create a big statement for all of those holiday gatherings you plan on hosting in your home. Now you can have it all….”trimming” your home allows you to update your décor AND still have plenty of budgeted money to spend on all of those Christmas gifts.

Pictured below is a living room I designed for a client. Notice how I used a Kelly Wearstler for Lee Jofa trim to frame the pillow, adding texture and interest.
