CUSTOM BEDDING by Posh Interiors, LLC-Atlanta Interior Design

I love a beautifully made bed.  No, I do not mind removing all of the pillows.  It is the size and shapes of the pillows that add to the welcoming feeling of an adorned bed.  You can buy many size pillows in the store and even find great bed-in-a-bag sets, but there is nothing like having custom pillows and covers made for your bedroom.

I have a king size bed and can never find anything to fit properly.  The plush pillow top mattress causes everything to look too short on the bed.  I did have my bedding custom made to fit (of course I would... I am a designer).

Here are a few of my favorite pillows for the bed.  I really love long bolster pillows matched with simple euros.  What's your favorite shaped pillow for the bed?

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE PLEAT? by Posh Interiors, LLC-Atlanta Interior Design

This time of year gets pretty busy for me as a designer.  I am usually working on quite a few window treatment projects.  Many times, clients don't really know what they want.  There are so many different header pleats that the client can become confused when they are trying to figure out what they like.

Right now, drapery panels using the french pleat header is pretty popular.  This look isn't quite as formal as the traditional double or triple pinch pleat. The french pleat shows emphasis towards the top of the pleat, allowing for a more relaxed look below the pleat.  As a matter of fact, I have used this header on my last couple of drapery projects. On the front page of my website www.poshinteriorsllc.com , I used the french pleat on a linen fabric.

Here are a few of the different header pleats.  Take a peek, and let me know what's your favorite pleat?

HOT TREND IN DESIGN...MARBLEIZE by Posh Interiors, LLC-Atlanta Interior Design

The marbleize trend is everywhere this fall.  If you flip through any home or fashion magazine, you will see it.  Let's define this for my blog readers.  Marbleize is to give a marble like variegated finish to an object or material.  When it comes to fabrics, silks and other natural fibers are best for creating this finish.

As a designer, I would use this pattern sparingly in my decor.  The look is beautiful and should be allowed to make a statement and not compete with too many other patterns.  Too much of this look can definitely cause a dizzy spell.

Let's take a look at this old trend that is resurfacing back on the block!

Red Is Smokin Hot This Fall In Home Decor! by Posh Interiors, LLC Atlanta Interior Design

I receive quite a few home decor magazines as you could imagine.  What I am noticing this season in home decor is the color red. It is back with avengement!  One of my favorite colors to wear is pink, but I love decorating in red.  I have touches of red throughout my home.

Now is the time to change out your accessories and add a bit of red.  This color will take you up to spring. Check out this smoking red sofa from Crate and Barrel.  I love how this sofa looks.  You could even paint the room in a soft gray that would add major sizzle.  Your friends would be envious when they visit you this holiday season.

BIG STYLE...Small Space by Posh Interiors, LLC- Atlanta Interior Design

Atlanta is a haven for hot trendy condo's. Many city dwellers sacrifice space for the advantage of living in-town.  Just because your space is small, doesn't mean you must sacrifice style.  Here are a few tricks for getting BIG STYLE in a small space.

Add Draperies.  As a designer, I believe every window should be dressed.  Adding draperies to a window in a small condo can make the window double in size.  One trick to creating the illusional larger window is raising the draperies a few inches above the molding on the window.  You can also add an additional width of fabric on the sides of the draperies to create a wider looking window.  Check out my website at www.poshinteriorsllc.com and peruse my photo gallery for window designs.

Mirrors Are A Must.  Mirrors immediately add space to a room.  The mirrors reflect light; can serve as a window and even create a focal point in a room.  Decorative mirrors can also act as a piece of art.

Perfect Paint Palette.  Adding neutral paint on a wall is an old trick to making a small space appear larger.  In order to punch up the color in the room, throw in great colorful accessories from throw pillows to vases.  Here are a few of my favorite accessories found on www.pinkdoordecor.com

I would love to get your feed back on all of my blog topics.  Tell me what you think.
