One of my favorite client’s is crazy for color and pattern, which I love about her. She is so much fun to work with. So, the project was to give her small dining area a refresh and we started by refinishing the table with two different finishes. We used a beautiful oyster finish on the legs and apron of the table and kept the existing cherry finish on the table top. The top was damaged though, so it needed to be repaired. Then we matched the finish on the dining chairs to the legs on the table.
After that came the selection of the really fun fabrics for the chairs…
It took way longer than expected because of some back-ordered items, but supply chain issues aside, I am loving it now that it is completed! Ryan and Pru installed it and did an amazing job!
I designed the cabinets to be two-toned with most of them in this soft sage green that is so versatile. It exudes a calm energy. It’s neutral and thanks to its cool undertones, the verdant shade serves all the room’s possibilities.
As we wrote about in our last post, we have been working hard for the past few weeks on a free makeover for a single mom and her two children and the installation has just happened.
We partnered with the non-profit organization, Pen + Napkin, to fundraise, design and install this makeover for Cajh and her kids.

I am so excited to let you know about the free home makeover that I am working on for a single Mom who has survived homelessness, Cajhmone, and her two children; daughter, (10 years old), and son, (6 years old); with a baby girl on the way. I feel so fortunate to be able to use my creative talents to help furnish and decorate a home for them, when they are dealing with the trauma of homeless.

We are thrilled to announce that we have been featured in ASID’s i + D magazine. In this article, “Small is Big”, I was interviewed by Brian Barth about ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) and their rise in popularity this past year. Forbes even declared 2020 as “the year of ADUs”!
One of my favorite quotes form the article is “For Decor Revolution’s Steinberg, the space constraints of ADUs are like candy for a designer’s mind”. This is so true!!
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU’s) or Garage Conversionsto house aging parents, boomerang adult kids or to rent out on Airbnb for extra income are becoming increasingly more popular. Or maybe you just want to create a home office space, art/craft studio or yoga/work-out space in your garage. Decor Revolution can help you custom build, remodel or refresh these spaces to suit your needs,
Last week I posted about how I remodeled my garage and converted it into a great, modern guest house that I am now renting out on Airbnb to bring in an extra source of income.
Turning your unused real estate into a source of income is a huge trend right now. I’ve spoken to so many people that are having great success with it and are so happy that they decided to give it a try.
Homeowners are building spaces above their garages or converting their garages into apartments for guests, relatives and renters. Some people are using these new additions as a place to house aging parents or boomerang adult kids when rising housing prices and rents make it tough to find other arrangements. The idea to rent out a part of your home in order to bring in some extra income is also becoming super popular.
It all started when a friend gave me two boxes of beautiful art books after her architect brother passed away, because she knew that I love and collect art books and would appreciate them. I was thrilled to get them, but didn’t have the shelf space for them, so they sat in the boxes for a few months.
