I am happy when my clients are satisfied with my design ideas 😉

This summer I shared Part One of Quarry Lake Kitchen project and here is Part two: the entry, living and dining room.

Carrie, a health coach and Michael, a physical therapist, built their home 20 years ago and called upon Du Interiors for some major updating.

With Du Interior design advice they now have a house they love coming home to. We are pleased that they said the following:

"Dulce's a great person to be around. The result is fantastic.

She really listens and pays attention to what's important to you. She helped create a home we both love. Everyone who walks in comments on how good our home looks."

Du Interiors was asked to update the entire ground floor, including entry, living room, dining room, bath, kitchen and family room. The designer is now working with them to update the second floor. The design for the master bedroom has been chosen; they are waiting for furniture and other furnishings before completing the new look

Maple-colored cabinets were re-painted a shade of blue (SW 9134 Delft gloss finish) to coordinate the new color theme that brightens the entire home. The new backsplash has white subway tile that "really sets it off," said Carrie.

All the oak floors were stained a darker shade after the carpet was removed. All the walls that were browns and dark red now have the new color. (SW 7621 Silvermist Eggshell finish)

A dramatic change was the window treatment in the living room, recommend by Dulce. They now hang from floor to ceiling. "It changed the entire look. I couldn't believe it," said Carrie.

Accessories are the special touches that truly make a house a home. The accent pillow is from one of Carrie's trip.

This bath was modernized with new pedestal sink, new toilet and vanity mirror. Grass cloth wallpaper was added. The result: a refreshing new appearance.

In any profession, testimonials are priceless.

Thank you Carrie & Michael!

Couple builds dream home in Walla Walla

Melissa & Mike visiting the construction site... a marvelous winter landscape! The calendar years of 2020/2021 have been one of the most challenging and unpredictable years of my life. On the other hand, they have also been one of my best professionally. The saying time flies when you are busy is true! My last blog was in November! Therefore, I am enjoying taking a break and sharing with you my pleasure in having had an opportunity to meet some wonderful new clients and catch up with existing clients. They kept me busy with consultations, renovations, new contractors and problem-solving with people working and teaching their children at home. You might think the interval during new construction won't have much of an effect on interior design, but decisions made from initial drawings and during construction have a profound effect on home decor. They set the groundwork for client satisfaction, such as this project. As the point person for a couple building their third (and fi...

Creative table tops add to dining experience

www.jellinadetmar.nl Whether it’s tea for two on an island in Capri or dinner for 10 in your home, a creative table setting adds an extra dimension to the dining experience. You can play with so many ideas, a Mediterranean theme, or Mexican or African…just about any country on the globe has cultural objects. If you do not have the accessories to start with, begin collecting whenever you see something that would work. It’s amazing what you can find shopping on your own house if you think out of the box. I always find something that I purchased on my travels like wraps from Africa or straw beach mat from Mexico as a table runner, bracelet from Hawaii as napkins holder, etc. Scarf from South of Africa Candles? Always! Add votives to take your centerpiece from day to night. You can play with colors and different heights to make the table décor interesting. You could go seasonal and use greenery in your garden or find some objects at the local nursery or your supermarket. A li...
