Here it is, the perfect room for the little curved sofa I finished yesterday. I like to call this Dara's apartment. Dara is the twinkle eyed blonde. Veronica is her ever fashionable friend. Doesn't she have the most beautiful raven hair? The girls have just finished chatting about New Year's resolutions over a strong cup of coffee. (I don't think weight loss made their list.)Anyway, I tried to give Dara's apartment an elegant tranquility while still showing her love for all things glamorous. The fireplace gives a nod to the traditional with it's molding and applique. It is finished in a crisp white with a smoky blue glass tile hearth. The fireplace is open in the back. I usually put a black backer board behind my fireplaces. I have not added one to this one yet. Dara does need a little girly sparkle to match her personality. Hence, the silver accessories on the fireplace mantle, starburst mirrored wall art and oversized sparkle balls inside the fireplace. Of course her guitar is always close at hand. I found this in North Carolina. It reminded me of a Gibson. I had to get it.
Dara's lucite table came from a friend in Canada, Style in Scale. It is the perfect topper for the cowhide print rug. On the opposite wall is a re-do item. This is a Bratz piece. MGM always had the greatest lines in their pieces. 
Hope you like Dara's apartment!

ReplyDeleteHi Marta, I am glad you like the room. Yes, I thought the white on those pieces kept the room "fresh". I love Veronica's fur collar coat. It is one of my favorites. Thank you for your lovely comments. I will definitely check out your blog. :)
