Recently she sent me some pictures of their progress so I thought I would show you some of the things they have done.
Remember she is my young, fresh and colorful Little Sweetie that used this room as her inspiration
This room was designed by Judith Balis of Nest Interiors. This room has been all over blog land and enjoyed by many readers.
Here are the post that I did on “My Little Sweeties” Project.
I just got an email from My Little Sweetie and she sent me a few more pictures of their progress. It has been so fun for me to be a part of this project with her and her hubby. The project has been done via phone calls and emails so with each new picture it is a surprise for me also.
Let’s start in the dining room! It all started out looking like this…………….
All white with some great light from three windows. We knew we could get away with a darker color in here so they chose……….
Dining Room Painted but Before Decorating
Chairs painted black and recovered in a stripe. Fun draperies to echo more black and white. Pop of color in the yellow vases to introduce the color of the kitchen.
A fun art piece as you enter the brightly colored yellow kitchen.
A bright orange letter above the kitchen window
A touch of black and white echoing the colors in the dining room with an addition of some bright orange accessories.
A vintage orange bowl and some fun plates are the stars here.
Next On to the Living Room:
All white No Color and My Little Sweetie loves color!!
Great color,but no decor yet………..
Start with a white Ikea sofa and some touches of black and white pillows.
Add a small marble top table with black legs and some beautiful fresh white roses. Then for a pop of bright color add two……………
Bright Pink re-upholstered chairs with shiny black legs. To top it all off……
How about a bargain priced mirror from the Rose Bowl Flea Market. I love the round shape with the little reflective circles on the black background.
For just a touch of sparkly whimsy why don’t we add a cute little……..
……….Owl from Tarjay!!
To echo the black and white striped chairs in the dining room a footstool that use to look like this………
Looks like this!!
Before we leave the living room I must show you this picture that was a gift from My Sweetie Pies big sister that she now proudly hangs in their living room…………
It is a picture of an old Hollywood starlet with the Liberty Bell behind her.
This is more than perfect for her home because she is from Philadelphia, home of the Liberty Bell and she is a working actor.
This has been such a fun project to be included in!! I hope you have enjoyed my journey into , “Little Sweetie’s” Home.
"Enjoy the Process" Of:
Helping someone plan a design for their first home.

Kathysue, your friend has made some beautiful changes to her home. I like the bright colors and the black and white accents in the dining room. Looks like this house has wonderful windows. Thanks for sharing photos of this ongoing project.
I've spent time this mornig scrolling through recent posts that I've missed. I so enjoy my visits here. Thanks for having me. ~ Sarah
Love it! I was wondering how that project was going- thanks for the update!

Oh how fun Kathysue. She really does like color and her rooms are great. Isn't it nice that she totally goes for it and reflects her own personality. I know she really appreciates your help. Hugs, Marty
Thanks for sharing these photos Kathysue. Your little Sweetie definitely loves color! It's refreshing to see someone younger who isn't all about all white interiors! I love her living room. When you mentioned she is a working actor, I got it. I'm thinking she is also quite vivacious! How fun to be able to help her with her first home!
Beautiful, vibrant colors. I love the black accents. You were a great inspiration!

So great! Love all the little personal touches throughout!
Love that striped ottoman! The colors are so fresh and fun! Love it!
Luvs!
Her house is looking so good. You know I am a fan of color, too.
So vibrant! Love that hot pink chair with the blue!
It is all coming together so well. I can't imagine having this as my first house. My current car cost more than my first house! It was tiny and old. I love all the unexpected pops of color.
Wow, I love little sweetie's home!! The changes are amazing, and I especially love the pops of bold and fabulous color. How fun to be a part of this process!

This really came out beautifully! I ADORE the living room. What a fantastic color. This is WAY out of my comfort zone, but I love it. She must be pleased as punch. I can definitely see quite a few "Kathysue" touches in this, but her personality shines through loud and clear. She must be a fun gal :) Hugs, Kat
I just now realized I could comment! I am loving your posts! Thank you for all of the comments! I had an absolutely amazing helper in Kathy! I could have never pulled this off on my own! Now, I am just patiently waiting for a visit! xo
Everything looks great. What a successful collaboration!
