LAYER THE DETAILS...

I love the way designer Lindsey Harper layers the details in her work. These photographs are of her New York apartment.
The foyer of your home is the perfect place for wall paper! {Quadrille wallcovering}


You don't need an office to have a centralized tack board! Lindsey uses hers for cards and daily reminders! {It's perfect and unexpected above her bar}

Layering unique and beautiful objects creates a space that feels so personalized! Lindsey also uses animal {zebra} print details throughout her home. Repeating pattern and color throughout a home or room enchances cohesive! This little zebra is precious!


This small snake skin table transforms this typical bathroom!

How do you feel about this over the top headboard? It's kind of fun.

I always love the mix of blue and yellow.

Good Design is in the details..

Embroidery - I still haven't tired of this beautiful room

I love incorporating interesting upholstery details into my designs. They can be done very inexpensively but in the end make all the difference..Here are a few ideas I like to use...

Nailheads + contrast banding - I love these ottomans

More nailheads + a centered print

Grosgrain ribbon, or fabric trim details {on sofas, chairs and headboards}


Create a fixed cushion {makes a comfy place to sit}

A head board made of individual panels secured to the wall

Contrast Welting + Banding


Box Pleat Skirt
