How-To {Go Glam}
We love going all out glam around here so it was only fitting that we create a fun “how-to” video to show you how!
Always start with the basics and build on them with pattern, color and texture. We layered the custom blush silk velvet bed with crisp white Soprano bedding from Peacock Alley and began to pull the room together from there. Large scale mirrored night stands were dressed with these gorgeous amethyst lamps and pops of pink and lavender to tie the room together. My favorite part of the room? Of course the stunning velvet black and white striped custom love seat to anchor the bed! We kept the pillows to a minimum by using a simple purple textural pattern and a tiny bit of metallic on the lumbar pillow and main bed pillows.
A little tip about going bold: Select the one or two pieces that make a statement in the room. We used the headboard and love seat here. Add art, pillows and accessories to pull the color into the space. Remember that not everything you bring into the room has to be so dramatic. We kept the bedding, draperies and artwork simple and subtle to compliment the color in the room.

We also love sharing a good BEFORE and AFTER. Here is the room before we began to bring in the main pieces…
And AFTER. Using black and white to anchor the room, all of the bold colors and fabric are balanced and can now be the focal point of the room.
