A staged bedroom doesn’t need elaborate seasonal décor to feel ready for fall. Layered bedding, a softly patterned pillow and a warm throw create just enough texture while keeping the room calm and inviting.

Fall Trend Watch: the classics that never go out of style. Rich woods, tailored plaids, antique brass and block-print patterns feel perfectly at home in a historic St. Paul house—but bring warmth, character and polish to rooms of every age. Timeless always wins.

For this WI lake home, we leaned into the home’s strong “Not So Big House” architecture: updating existing built-ins, layering in custom fabrics, and making thoughtful changes that worked with the original design. Here’s a look at it all coming together on install day-

The design process is part creative scheming - finding the wallpaper, fabrics, woods and colors - and part careful logistics: functioning around existing HVAC, outlets, pocket doors and door swings.
This darling tween room is taking shape with lively abstracts, layered patterns and plenty of sea glass blues and lilac. And, per her *very specific* request...a bean bag.

💜 Mom: “Nothing that looks like a giant potato.”
💜 Daughter: “Comfy, snuggly and soft.”

A staging consultation helps sellers step back and see their home through a buyer’s eyes. Buyers don’t know why a room has always been arranged a certain way; they respond to how clearly the space photographs, functions, and feels. A few strategic changes can quickly shift that first impression and help buyers recognize the home’s full potential.

A timeless color palette doesn’t have to mean playing it safe—or living in a sea of beige. Think warm Alabaster or Accessible Beige layered with soft Sea Salt, Clary Sage, Smoky Blue, classic Naval or a touch of dusty Redend Point. The goal isn’t to avoid color; it’s to choose colors you’ve always loved, so your home feels fresh now and still feels like you years from now.

In August, we’re thinking State Fair - not back-to-school just yet! These gorgeous late summer dahlias are the perfect palette: saturated pinks, soft peach, coral and deep plum. Bring those shades into your entry with fresh flowers, a pillow or a rug...just enough of a shift to hint at fall while still enjoying every last bit of summer!

Custom window treatments can be an investment, so every detail matters: fom choosing the right fabric and lining to getting the fit and fullness just right. Done thoughtfully, they complete the room and are made to last.
