The Makeover

.
For months now I have been mentioning Curious Sofa was preparing for a Spring cleaning makeover. First there was the idea, then the wait on new floor samples, then the wait on back ordered wallpaper, then the wait on labor. Then two weeks ago we get the good news we will be featured in another national magazine this September, but... the shoot had to happen this week before I left for Round Top! Fast forward to a wonderful staff working late, climbing ladders and following my late night list of To Do's. Now picture the owner frantically fixing her workroom and office to be photo worthy (is yours?). Finally, I am happy to present a few pictures of what we have been planning and working on and finish up with a few shots of Elizabeth shooting pictures of the store for Where Women Create.

Our favorite: A touch of modern in out Black and White Living Room.

The new wallpaper: Barnwood wallpaper in all areas hung horizontally with contrasting borders.

The new awning

The bedding department wallpaper with cloud border.

The new Bella Notte bedding
