coastal and southern

Coastal and Southern.  I do believe I fit into both those categories.  Born and (mostly) raised in the South and I do live on the Coast. 

Don’t get me wrong though, I’m willing to work anywhere. 

I’m flattered, honored, humbled, and a little shy about it all.  You see, the fruits of my labor were recognized in Coastal Living this month (March 2010) and also in Southern Living last month (February 2010) and I’m so very grateful.  So, if you missed either of them and wanted to see the stories, here they are….

    I love your work and I remember seeing these features. Question for you, I have scoured the article and didn’t see this anywhere, but do you mind telling me what the countertops are in the first kitchen above? The one with the blue island? I love that look and would really like to try and recreate it. Thanks!

    I love the cream and tan curtains in the living room of the last house shown. Can you tell me where the curtains are from or the fabric? All these houses are just stunning!!!

  11. I think this is among the most important info for me. And i am glad studying your article. But wanna commentary on some general things, The website taste is wonderful, the articles is actually excellent : D. Excellent job, cheers

  12. Good evening Erika!
    I have long admired your talent and style! I took the plunge 3 years ago and gutted my kitchen. I had a small kitchen with formica and ugly counter tops, oh and soffits. I hated the sight of it. So, I hired some men to haul it away. I am still putting it all together and so far it looks gorgeous! I had 4 x 8 sheets cut to 6 inch wall boards for the walls leading from my kitchen all the way to the sunroom 20+ feet – all painted Manchester tan from Sherwin Williams, a pot filler of course, and I installed a Kohler cast iron double deep sink over man made marble tile and purchased two large Pendant lights from restoration Hardware with lots of recess lights! Would love to send you pics when it is finished as your kitchen featured in Coastal Living (March 2010) was my inspiration!

    May I ask where you got the polished shelf brackets? I may have to settle for the Home Depot set, but would much rather have the type that you used, if possible to still find them.

    I look forward to hearing from you. If you ever find your way to Virginia Beach, I would be honored to meet you and would like to take you to lunch!

    All the best, Rebecca Keeney
