Last month I shared my inspiration board for a new hall bath design. Because this bathroom is shared by our two boys, ages six and three, as well as any guests, I wanted to come up with a design that would be fun for the boys but still chic for everyone else. After a trip to my favorite interior design store in the entire U S of A, Furbish Studio, in Raleigh, NC, I was able to add some whimsical pops of color to the room which was originally planned to be Kelly green, white and navy, designed around the Serena & Lilly alligator shower curtain.
The bathmat was a gift my mom graciously picked up in Georgetown, SC, and my talented, sweet mother-in-law painted the watercolor. Reminiscent of our family sailing trip around the BVI, the picture depicts your back toward the Soggy Dollar Bar, birthplace of the deliciously refreshing Painkiller, looking out onto White Bay, Jost Van Dyke. It's safe to say I'm happiest near blue green waters.
The capiz shell sconces I eagerly snagged from West Elm right after we moved into to the house. These are the closest I'm able to find, and I'm very excited to have just purchased the pendant shade version recently for our foyer.
The orange bikini girl is a print made by a long time family friend. I wish she still produced them!
My girl, Jessica, painted the Beverly palm print, and the Turkish towels and cute little donkey are from Furbish Studio. Those are my two friends (one real life friend anyway) in the picture taken at a very long ago Carolina Cup! Good memories, they never fade, but I'm so glad we have this one documented on paper...
And last but certainly not least, those crazy fantastic crazy snake prints, also from Furbish Studio. My new favorite is this donkey.
And there you have it, viola! Until the next itch to change comes a creepin'...
