The Kitchen is the Heart of This Home
Posted by melissa on Aug 1, 2012 in decorating for clients, kitchen | 30 comments
I do a little decorating here and there for others.
(I hope to do more of this!)
I got started a few years back when my friend, Renee asked me if I could help her with her house.
I decorated her house and then that led to other jobs. . .
Seven years later, I have the honor of helping David and Renee build their home!
It has been a fun process!
They have a very cool style.
Here are a few pictures of their new home.
Today I will share the kitchen.
This is the desk area.
The table will go under this light fixture.
The kitchen is the heart of this home.
The walls are a pale gray.
Huge island.
Tons of cabinets and countertops.
The top of the island is a honed black granite.
The countertops are a white granite.
I love the look of exposed brick for the backsplash.
This light fixture is just incredible!
They are going to have a table made out of barn wood from Renee’s grandfather’s barn.
I can’t wait to see it!
I had a hard time getting a good shot of this window, but you just had to see it!
We chose to do open shelving for this corner.
It keeps it from feeling to crowded.
This is the bookcase in the hallway upstairs.
You can see it from the kitchen.
Notice the landing above the kitchen.
There are bookcases on all of the walls up there.
Only 1 has the criss cross bookcase.
This is the view of the kitchen from the landing.
And, last but not least is the pantry.
This is actually the wrong glass.
It will be a seeded glass.
It takes a special personality to be able to have glass doors on your pantry.
This space will always be beautiful at the Sproles!
The stained glass was a custom piece.
I can’t wait to get in there and start decorating and arranging!
Life to the full to you!

I don’t have a blog but sure love visiting alot of them, seeing what all the talented bloggers are doing. I’m too chicken to try to have my own blog besides not having a camera to show pics on it. Guess I’ll have to admit I’m just plain lazy at this point in life (72 yrs. young).
What is not to love about that house? I’m just glad I won’t have to make the payments or clean it. I’m too practical but so enjoy seeing other people’s gorgeous homes and that one from little I’ve seen is gorgeous, Wow. Will look forward to seeing alot more of it. Have fun decorating it.
What a dream kitchen! Absolutely spectacular – love love love the pantry

Lovely kitchen for an absolutely wonderful family…cannot wait to see it when all their personality is infused into it. This kitchen just makes my heart happy~great job, Melissa!
Love the light fixture and the built-ins. What a beautiful home!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love how open it is. Our house is so tiny. Only a little over 1,300 sq ft and there are 6 of us piled in there. I wouldn’t know how to act with that much room! Can’t wait to see how you decorate it! – Karen
Are they looking for additional tenants, because I am pretty sure I would be happy as a clam to live in that library upstairs with a view of that kitchen. Or better yet, maybe I’ll send my cranky teenagers to live there and then I can just come visit and bask in your good taste . . .
Fabulous, fabulous!! Your kitchen is stunning for a wonderful family. Your entire home is gorgeous too. Enjoy the weekend.
