My friend Keasha may be the most sassy person I know.  She is about the size of Polly Pocket and pretty feisty!  About a month ago, she and her husband decided to take on the challenge of transforming their builder grade living room into a HGTV designer worthy space.  They replaced their fireplace surround with a beautiful mosaic tile of copper, chocolate and cream.  They glazed and distressed the fireplace mantle and then added a dark mahogany wood floor as the hearth.  Here is a picture of the finished product . . . . beautiful!


This rich and bold fireplace needs a window treatment that can compliment the tile and wall color, not divert any attention away from the hard work put into it.  When you walk through the front door, the fireplace is the first thing that catches your eye . . . exactly what it is meant to do.  It isn't until you turn around do you see the large picture window on the adjacent wall.  Keasha did an amazing job selecting the fabric and trim for her drapes.  (I'm so proud, all on her own!)  Here is an up close look at the combination of fabrics . . . the leopard is my favorite!


The fabrics contrasted with the wall beautifully and I was so happy with the way they turned out.


After the drapes were installed, Keasha told me that she was so excited and she mentioned she left the room just so that she could come back in to be surprised all over again!  Thanks Keasha for letting me contribute to your living room make over.
