If you're free tomorrow, I'd love to see you at the DC Design House Bare Bones Day! You can view the "before" of the empty house and view designers design boards for their spaces & talk to them about their plans. I'll be there bright & early in my updtairs bedroom at 10. (10 is bright & early for this mama who lives way out in the 'burbs ;)
We're flying out to LA for the Design Blogger's Conference tomorrow late-afternoon so I'll be staying at the Showhouse until a little after 1 or so before heading to the airport.
Here is a little peek at a photo of the grisaille "sketch" done by John Matthew Moore for my design board:

Outside of the house in DC, there are boxwood gardens so we thought this painting of English gardens would be fitting for the room. This little painting is based on a photo Matthew took on one of his trips. I cannot wait to see it enlarged!!

Want another peek of his gallery? (I thought you would so I took lots of pics!) The Gallery in McLean is not completely finished but is still gorgeous:
{Recognize those robin's eggs paintings?}
{Some of the beautiful frames available... art in and of themselves}
{Loove these chairs... Matthew reupholstered them in a levendar-gray velvet with jute trim.}
{the desk}
{gorgeousness}
{I love these little sheep paintings hung in the window}
{The pedestal table displays some of lighting designer Rick Singleton's repurposed lighting projects}
{check out this antique beauty... I love the nailholes left over from its lifetime of different identities}
{And one last parting pic of the Gallery}

I met Matthew & Rick this past September when our good mutual friends, Eddie & Jaithan were visiting. We went to the best little burger place around in McLean & had a great time. I was literally blown away by their work & couldn't wait to use pieces of theirs for clients. When the DC Design House came around, I immediately thought of Matthew & Rick & how amazing pieces done by them would be. I was thrilled when they were on board to contribute to the bedroom! They have both had pieces featured in past Design Houses and I kid you not, I got so excited I chills when I saw the gallery the first time with Eddie & Jaithan. It just oozes with creativity and makes you need a piece for your own home.
Throughout the next coming month or two, I'll be sharing photos & info on all of the people and companies who are contributing to my room in the DC Design House. They're such a creative talented group & they've all been so generous. The Children's Hospital Showhouse definitely takes a village and I can't wait for you to "meet" everyone!
The Design House Bare Bones Tour tomorrow will be a lot of fun, so please come if you can!!
