Craft Room: Progress Update 1

April 30, 2013

Craft Room: Progress of Client Project _ Designed by @Jenna_Burger

This morning, I mentioned that I was headed out early for a site visit to check on the progress of the mega craft room /office space that I've been working on for the last few months. It's a local project which I shared details about a few weeks ago and the transformation has been amazing. In the last post about this project, the construction hadn't even begun, but since then alot has happened, including: Removal of the popcorn ceiling Removal of old carpet and installation of new hardwood floor (in this room and throughout the entire house) Removal of old window treatments New … [Read more...]

Striking Spring Porches, Doors, and Entryways

April 18, 2013

Major Spring Inspiration: Striking Spring Doors, Porches, and Entryways. Roundup by @Jenna_Burger, SASinteriors.net

Spring is finally peaking through. It's the perfect time of year to open up the windows, let the fresh air in, and rid the winter decor for some fresh, new, colorful accents. We can finally come out of hibernation, step outside the front door, and actually spend time looking at our homes instead of darting directly from the indoors to the car in 2.8 seconds to avoid the frigid cold (well maybe that's just me - hehe). The entry to a home sets the tone for what's to come indoors. What's created and displayed on the front door, porch, and entryway make the first impression not only for … [Read more...]

Bathroom Refresh with Better Homes and Gardens

March 29, 2013

Better Homes and Gardens collection exclusively at Walmart - Bathroom refresh by @Jenna_Burger, sasinteriors.net

Spring is in the air! The last few days have been enjoyably milder, so I hope we keep moving in the warmer-weather direction. As we're making our way out of winter hibernation, Spring is the perfect time of year to give your home a fresh start. Kind of an airing-out from the winter blues. Better Homes and Gardens recently reached to me to share the news about their fabulous line of home décor products, available exclusively at Walmart. To share details of their collaboration, they asked me if I wanted to be apart of their "Walmart Room Refresh" campaign. Of course, I was thrilled … [Read more...]

Spring Mantel with Sensational Succulents #LowesCreator

March 25, 2013

Spring Mantel with Sensational Succulents - Creative ideas for bringing in natural elements by @Jenna_Burger, SASinteriors.net

Happy Monday! Yes, it's Spring, but sadly it doesn't feel like it (at least here in NY). I am so ready for the warmer days ahead and am yearning for the array of colorful flowers, the endless chirping of birds, and the sounds of outdoor laughter. I know it'll be here soon, but I am just ready for winter (and the endless snow) to be over. In my search for all things Spring, I decided this years seasonal mantel had to include elements of the outdoors. Last Friday when perusing the aisles of Lowe's, specifically the outdoor section, I saw a huge display of succulents. I immediately knew … [Read more...]

A Newly Designed Home Office / Family Room

February 12, 2013

Creative Ideas for designing a Home Office / Family Room. Giant Inspiration Board by @Jenna_Burger via sasinteriors.net

It's REVEAL day! If you saw yesterday's post, you read all about the evolution (and the juice backstory details) about how this space has been in transition for the last 3 years. Since that's outta the way, we can get right to the good stuff... The fun and exciting 'after' pictures. Some of the elements in the space are new (not much, but a few), but many have been repurposed or are DIY creations, which I will be sharing over the upcoming weeks. But let's get right to it. My newly designed home office / family room... And just so you remember, this is the … [Read more...]

The Evolution of the Home Office / Family Room : The Backstory

February 11, 2013

I hope you had a fabulous weekend! For the past few weeks, we were surprisingly teased with seeing lots of exposed grass, but then got hit with 'Nemo' this past weekend. Thankfully we were spared with only about 6" (nothing out of the ordinary for us), while others not too far away got hammered. While shoveling out and spending some time indoors over the weekend, I finally had the chance to put the finishing touches on my combination home office / family room space. With it not being too sunny or too overcast, it thankfully was the perfect time to photograph. I haven't shared much … [Read more...]

Your Home. Your Story. Creating a Meaningful Home

January 3, 2013

Happy New Year! I hope you had an enjoyable and safe end of 2012 & beginning of 2013. I'm really excited about this year to come. I have so many personal and business goals that I hope to accomplish. Over the next few weeks and months, I will also have fun news to share and hope that you'll continue to follow along on this forever-changing and crazy adventure. For some reason, I always find the first post of the year the most difficult to write. I feel like it has to be profound and awe-inspiring. After some thought, I decided to hold off on sharing the many DIY projects … [Read more...]

13 Christmas Porches, Doors, and Entryways

November 27, 2012

Inspiration for Christmas Porches, Doors, and Entryways via @Jenna_Burger, sasinteriors.net

Since the interior is complete, this past weekend (and alittle part of yesterday) I was focusing on decking out the front porch for Christmas. For some reason I always have a little difficulty with decorating the front porch because the scale of things needs to be larger than the interior and the pesky lights never stay where I need them to - I am just NOT handy with lights! After a few hours, way too many edits, broken bulbs, and a couple of trips to Lowes, I am finally satisified with our front porch. And I have to say, it's our best yet. More on that soon, but in the the meantime … [Read more...]

Creating a Well Styled Table Vignette

November 12, 2012

I've shared my ideas and thoughts on how to create a well styled bookcase and today I'm back sharing simple, affordable, and stylish tips on how to create a beautiful table vignette (or any horizontal surface - could be a dresser, buffet, window sill, etc). I just love the word vignette - it sounds so she-she and regal - but getting down to basics, it simply means a pulled together and balanced composition (that's my meaning, not Webster's, so please don't head to your dictionary and quote me- hehe). A well-styled table vignette is the perfect way to add warmth, interest, and unique … [Read more...]
