Living Room Love!

We had so many comments from last week’s post--it was fun to hear from all of you--thanks so much for taking the time to reply!

Today we continue the tour of Laura’s charming St. Louis home today with the Living Room…

As you recall, Laura moved to her new home this fall when her last little one (I mean really big, grown-up one) went off to college.

Her home was a blank slate (well, with a little clutter tossed in)--and she was very open to allowing a BIG JUMP in energy for her home and her life--very BRAVE!

Here are a few before pictures (previous owners) of her living room:

And so the Feng Shui challenge began…

...To lift the CHI of this space to match Laura’s gorgeous, glittering energy and beautiful life unfolding and blossoming right before her…

With the big open l-o-o-o-o-o-o-n-g room and “fast” placement of the wood flooring--“vertical” instead of “horizontal” to slow you down--we needed to use the furniture, rug, lighting, art and color to create a room that you would LOVE to walk into and STAY!

• The rug, with a pattern, designates The Room. (The rug always defines the space and sooooo many rugs are too small, causing a room to shrink…)
• The bright orange sofa creates a boundary on one end--shortening the long room, too.
• The vibrant Akiyama Art piece is the BIGGEST CHI HIT in the room and speaks to Joy, Beauty, Love, and Passion. It stops you right in your tracks, doesn’t it?
• The chairs, ottoman, side tables, pillows, lamps, cute dogs :) and TV stand support the space and let the “main characters” (Art, Sofa, Rug) shine!
• A sweet dining table for 2 sets the stage for an intimate meal.
• Everything has a place and is beautifully put away.

The result is a room that feels enchanting, delightful and speaks to a gorgeous future--Laura’s requests are RIGHT THERE woven into the Feng Shui fabric of her home...The abundance, romance and happiness she desires has arrived already and is supporting her to move toward MORE. We’re SO EXCITED for her!!!!

If you’re feeling that a Feng Shui transformation is in your future, please reply to this email--we would love to work with you to create a home to support your dazzling life, too!

Lots of Love,
XOXO

PS: I’ll be at the Dreambank, Madison, WI, on May 23rd at noon talking about Feng Shui for Health and Wellness--bring a friend and come see us!
