Oh Happy Day!

First of all, Happy St. Patrick’s day! Did you get your green on today? I didn’t go all out, but made sure to add a splash with one of my favorite scarves.

The main reason for this post though, is because Gibson and I have a very important announcement to make that will explain our current state of jubilation – (who’s Gibson, you ask? Why he’s just one of my favorite furry, four-legged nephews who likes to be included in everything) – ahem:

We are so excited to announce that the Kitchen project we shot with At Home in Arkansas last month will be highlighted as the Before and After feature in their April 2014 issue! (See some behind the scenes from the shoot here.)

We’re so excited!! Many thanks to the outstanding At Home in Arkansas team for this amazing honor. I couldn’t be more thrilled to share my work with you all through this distinguished publication.

Gibson and I won’t spoil it for you, but as you can see we were mesmerized with how beautifully the feature turned out. The issue will be hitting newsstands and mailboxes soon, so keep your eyes open and scoop one up when you see it! We think you’ll just love this family-friendly, total kitchen transformation, as well as the other fantastic features this issue holds that are full of ideas you won’t want to miss for spring inspiration.

Please spread the word! When you get a chance to check it out, we’d love to know what you think, so come back by and drop us a line! 😉

We hope you had a great St. Patrick’s Day and Monday all around and wish you a happy week ahead!

xoxo,

Spring Inspired Color

The drastic mood swings in the weather lately have me longing all the more for spring to finally grace us with its presence. I’m starting to catch the spring cleaning fever, and with it spring project fever. I’m wanting to paint this and reupholster that and switch this out and hang this up… can anybody else relate?

If you too are in the mode of freshening things up around your home, hopefully these spring and floral inspired color palettes by Design Seeds will refresh and inspire you. I’ve chosen a collection revolving around various shades of the color of the year, Radiant Orchid, to give you some ideas on other colors that play oh-so nicely with this lovely pinkish purple!

Still savoring yesterday’s destination DAYte (da Still savoring yesterday’s destination DAYte (day-date) in Hot Springs with my love. ☀️💚💗 The “spa city” holds such a special place in our hearts, being woven in to our story since before we were “we”!

Our first adventure here together was random and last minute, Forrest being the only nearby guy-friend available to help me retrieve a Facebook marketplace sofa in Hot Springs for my new little rent house amdist starting over following a major life transition. I treated him to brunch at Eden restaurant that day as a thank you!

Fast forward 6 months - he’d asked me out, we’d dated less than a month, gotten engaged, AND eloped 😂🥹💞 returning to this charming city for our mini-moon that weekend at none other than Hotel Hale, where Eden is located. 🥹🌿

6 months after THAT - we returned again to celebrate our wedding with friends and family, hosting a small reception at The Reserve, followed by another visit to our favorite bath house rowtel @hotelhale ! We come back every winter and summer (and as often as we can in between) to celebrate our love by strolling through shops, winding through the park, eating and sipping our way through our favorite restaurants. 

Hot springs will forever be a magical place with you, @forrest_addison_roberts ! ✨😘

@athomearkansas perfectly captured and titled our @athomearkansas perfectly captured and titled our July kitchen feature, “Happy Place”, as this space became just that! 💗 It will forever be one of my favorite kitchen designs. From the amazing space plan improvement, to the opportunity to infuse pink, to the sweetest clients (fur-client included) - we will cherish this happy place always!

Thank you to my talented co-designer @emmilyy23 especially for finding the Etsy rug that will go down in history as the most perfect runner for a space ever. And to the awesome contractor Pablo Pagliani, without who our design couldn’t have become a reality. 

Thank you @stephaniemaxwellnewton @rettpeek @athomearkansas for the beautiful photos and feature!!

It is a delight to work with Kathryn LeMaster. She is a good listener who has been able to help us transition into a smaller home while still keeping the essence of our family intact.

- CINDI C.

My husband and I decided to update our house focusing on the kitchen and bathrooms. We were so impressed from the beginning with Kathryn! She was easy to work with and took our vision and made it all come together! She was extremely professional and we highly recommend her. Thanks Kathryn!! We couldn't be happier!!!

- LAURA D.

I have been doing business with Kathryn for several years, where she had played an integral role to enhance the quality and appeal of the visual impact of our furniture in TV commercial s. She independently picks products that perfectly match each commercial. She is also an absolute pleasure to work with. She is flexible when needed, and always has a positive disposition.

- LAWRENCE ZIGERELLI, PRESIDENT/CEO, FFO HOME

We asked Kathryn to create sets for a food shoot with multiple items. She created sets with for each dish and had them passed them off with the client who was out of town. She was extremely organized and methodical about how she purchased and approved each set. Not only was her work exceptional, her presence made the client feel at ease.

- DERO SANFORD, OWNER, THINKDERO

We highly recommend Kathryn. She listened to us as her clients and executed ideas based upon our design style. We had bought a new house and asked her to help us furnish, design, and style It. We appreciated her detailed drawings and ability to "show" us the vision and plan. She is quick to respond and allows for flexibility based upon timeline needs. Once deciding together on budget, she works toward that goal. She is a lot of fun to work with!

- CHRISTY H.

Kathryn assisted me in styling and accessorizing our new home. She nailed my design ideas and style based on the questionnaire and my comments. I was amazed at how she was able to match my style exactly! It would have taken me years to accomplish what she accomplished in one day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.
