Chic and Colorful Breakfast Room

Six years ago I met the sweetest, most thoughtful and beautiful friend.  Although we’d lived just down the road from one another for years, it took us both having little girls to finally meet.  Kristina was there for me so much during one of the hardest seasons of my life that I wrote about on Tuesday and I am so thankful to call her one of my very best friends.  In 2011 when I began creating my designs for Addison’s Wonderland, I blew up her phone almost daily for opinions and ideas on prototypes.  So now when Kristina invites me over for lunch and design time, I am there.

Several months ago I posted about the progress on her breakfast room remodel in “Breakfast at Kristina’s”.  Although Kristina and I are kindred design spirits who share a love for color, pattern and a touch of glam, she has trouble pulling together a look she loves and enlisted my help creating her dream room.  Since her formal dining space now functions as a playroom for her two girls, she wanted to create a more formal breakfast room that is beautiful yet still functional and fun.

BEFORE

Breakfast Room 1

Incorporating color in the furnishings and accessories was numero uno on the list so I chose a neutral yet eye catching striped wall for the space.  The horizontal stripes visually expand the space and define the area since it is all one big open space.  For the stripes, I chose Simple White and Functional Gray by Sherwin Williams.  Although Kristina wanted true gray walls throughout her home, I chose a warmer gray to coordinate with her oak cabinets and flooring.  A cool gray paint choice would have brought out the orange in the wood and the wood would bring out the blue/purple undertones in the cool gray walls.

Once the paint was complete, we did a little online and HomeGoods shopping to furnish and accessorize the space.  Although Kristina mentioned purchasing a new table or painting her exisiting one, I actually felt that the warm wood tones and rustic/masculine details were the perfect compliment to the more glam/feminine touches.  With that savings, she was able to splurge on this absolutely breathtaking chandelier!  See below for product sources and more of her home tour…

 Several months prior to her breakfast room re-design, Kristina wanted to have almost the entire inside of her home re-painted to give it a more fresh, updated look.  The walls were a warm taupe and she wanted a more gray/white look with pops of fun color.  That would be my specialty!

So over the moon happy to share that yesterday THI So over the moon happy to share that yesterday THIS HAPPENED 💍 for the other half of AW ♥️ The last three years have been something CRAZY for Ab and I but getting to not only witness but to also play a part in one of the happiest days in each of our lives over these last twelve months has been nothing short of PURE MAGIC ✨ Looking back at all of the tears and uncertainty and heartache we’ve each experienced “together” it feels kind of unreal that each of our fairytales have officially come true… absolutely INCREDIBLE, genuine, steadfast men that we both get to call our FOREVER AFTERS 🥰 There is truly NO ONE more deserving of a fairytale than Abigail. She’s more positive adjectives than will fit on this post… basically every single one in the dictionary… and then some. And believe me when I say that if Jess wasn’t absolutely perfect for her, I would’ve thrown myself on the sidewalk for all she’s done for me. These two love birds are the ABSOLUTE CUTEST EVER and I could not possibly be more thrilled for them and the countdown to their big day…. ♥️♥️♥️

My first true outdoor design project is coming to My first true outdoor design project is coming to life ♥️ And I’m IN LOVE! When John and I made the decision to keep my home and make it OUR HOME for the long term, I decided I wanted to bring the European vibes y’all know I LOVE into our own backyard. It quite honestly wasn’t even as much about adding a pool as it was about the vibe I’d been dreaming up as a whole. Wanting to create an outdoor space that felt warm, inviting, whimsical and elegant. All of the things I try so hard to evoke with my style. A place we can keep our now family of six entertained or just a place John and I can sip coffee in the mornings or wine in the evenings as our kiddos are growing up way way too fast. Bringing what we love about the inside of our home to our fabulous backyard. Thank y’all for following the progress over on stories the last few weeks! It’s far-ish from done for me but you did say y’all wanted to see more pictures on my feed… 😉 Work done by @garrisonmessick and @connergrading ♥️
Y’all voted… MORE PICTURES IT’LL BE! And why Y’all voted… MORE PICTURES IT’LL BE! And why not a little design advice and room details with every post too! 💗 I’m often asked if someone wants to start implementing a more colorful, pattern filled style in their home, where do you even begin? I think the best place to start playing around and living it up is sometimes the smallest of spaces where it’s “okay” to play it up! Laundry rooms, powder rooms, mud rooms and of course kids rooms can be great place to start. I mean, who doesn’t love walking in the door from a busy, stressful day into a vibrant, fun mudroom?!? A few details… The trim color in here is a color I created for our kitchen six years ago now that I am still completely obsessed with. It is a 50-50 mix of Sherwin-Williams Uncertain Gray and Stardew. Both at full strength. It is the most perfect gray blue and it never gets old! Also, this wallpaper is available at shopaddisonswonderland.com and I also blogged a full detail tutorial on how we created this penny tile floor writing. Search “penny” on my blog under the Menu. Happy Weekend!
Okay I have to ask… PICTURES OR REELS? I’m so Okay I have to ask… PICTURES OR REELS? I’m so torn! I joined Instagram to share and be inspired by beautiful designs but I also love sharing the process and progress of it all on a Reel. HOWEVER, sometimes I’d love to just scroll and not have my phone blast a new song at every finger swipe. Anyone with me??? For today, sharing our newly completed living room ♥️ Feels so good to call it DONE! HAPPY WEEKEND!!! P.S. If you’ve been following along on stories we are doing lots in our newly landscapes backyard from filling it with furniture to filling pots to place around the pool. Hope you’ll follow along! Lots pictured here is on the @shop.LTK app under @addisonswonderland and about half including the pillows, lamps and lighting is from shopaddisonswonderland.com!

Goooooooood morning!!!! Ab here 🙋🏼‍♀️ Goooooooood morning!!!! Ab here 🙋🏼‍♀️ Although it is not Portugal, I am sharing the next best thing this morning, state side #ad  It's crazy when the vision you dreamt up over a year ago starts to turn into a reality😭😭😭 Y'all, I am over the MOON about these sofas.  I knew I wanted to go with leather in this space and the #SvenSofa from @article blew my expectations out of the water. This room is constantly used for game nights, late night hangs with the girls, and the occasional lazy Sunday nap AND it is SO dang cozy.  Who's coming over for dinner???  #ourarticle  Swipe to see where this room AKA the “Key Lime Pie Room” started… who else loves those office lights?!?
Feels like HOME ♥️ Today on stories I was shar Feels like HOME ♥️ Today on stories I was sharing on a questionnaire slide how much it pains me to hear that someone is “designing/decorating their home for resale” without any plans of resale in sight. You LIVE in your home! It’s your refuge, your family memories, your safe space and something that even if rented or for a moment in time is all “yours”. Let it give you all the feels 🥰 Everything is either linked on @shop.ltk or from shopaddisonswonderland.com
