Thanks for having me here today! My name is Kelsey and I blog over at Kelsey Design, a style blog both for you and your home. Natalie asked me to share one of my storyboard designs with you.We are moving across the country in less than a month and on my moving checklist was a living room design. {Priorities, right?} The last time we moved it took me forever to unpack and make the house presentable. I had too much that didn’t go together and was completely overwhelmed. This time I am determined not to let that happen and make our new place feel like home as soon as possible. Plus, it is fun to switch furniture up. It also helps that we are only taking our sofa and bed- this leaves quite a bit of room for change.

I am going for a more modern look, but still my go-to black and white (and gray) theme. I’ve had my eye on that buffet for a while now and our new living room will fit it perfectly. It’ll be opposite the sofa and the abstract painting. I bit the bullet and bought  black curtains!! I never thought I’d have black curtains, but I guess moving across the country puts curtain colors in perspective- it doesn’t really matter, so just go with what you like. It’s easy to tell clients that and now I’m liv-in’ what I’m preach-in’. And if I have black curtians, I have to have velvet leopard throw pillows because leopard velvet and black silk are a match made in heaven. Period. I’m also incorporating other favorites- greek key, Jonathan Adler lamp, lucite, and some quirk- the hoofed end table. I can’t wait to see it all come to life!

I love meeting and hearing from new readers so please stop by and say hi! And, Merry Christmas to you all.
