For this week's Before and After, we have another beautiful living room. Aside from the wall paint color, everything else is new to the room. The furniture and accessories are a mix of antique and reproduction pieces. Phoebe and her team kept the room fresh by using traditional upholstery but updating it with modern lamps and accessories. The series of orchid botanicals are from one of Phoebe's favorite artists and they were custom-ordered in shades of blue for this room.
Update: The fantastic Cheryl Elgin, one of the decorators at our Atlanta Mrs. Howard, was the project lead on this week's and last week's "Before and After". We want our readers to know that while Phoebe oversees everything, our decorating team is a huge part of what we do, and they are extremely talented, as well. Cheryl put together these two beautiful rooms, and we thought you should know it!Before:
After:
The rooms are beautiful. Wish Phoebe had a book to guide me through my personal decorating.

Very pretty! We get a tiny glimpse of a wall with a demilune table and mirror - does this stand along or are there two demilunes flanking a door?
It looks like the front door is beyond the stairs. Is there a view to the fireplace when someone enters this house? I always find it interesting what you see when you walk into a home.
