The latest HGTV Smart Home was introduced this week online. I’m super excited about it because custom designs from Bassett Furniture are featured throughout this Nashville based home. The pieces are fun and functional, dressed in rich colors and fabulous patterns. A lot of the accent pieces are from the HGTV Home collection which is manufactured by Bassett. Take the virtual tour online and then come visit me in Burlington to get the look for your own home. Below are some of my favorite Bassett pieces from the HGTV Smart Home’s great room.

P.S. The Smart Home has some great examples of stylish and dramatic draperies. Custom windows available via Bassett.

Get the Look: Spring Styled at Glen Magna

Styled. Home Design Series

Glen Magna Farms, Danvers

Last weeks #SpringStyled event at Glen Magna Farms in Danvers was so much fun! After designing The Lounge, Powder Room and Hallway for the Holiday Show House in December, it was a special treat to be able to return to re-style the rooms for spring. This time around I brought select pieces from the Bassett Furniture Design Studio to infuse my traditional spaces with a modern freshness.

Below are links to the art, custom upholstery, pillows, and accent pieces that I had on display along with the other elements from the holiday show that are now a permanent part of each room. If you would like to see any of these spring accessories in person, stop by the Burlington Bassett location on Middlesex Turnpike. Let me know if you are planning a visit and I will set aside time to give you a studio tour. And if you are looking for a pretty spot to host your next event, contact Heather King at Glen Magna Farms to see the lovely rooms of this historical mansion in person. The gardens are beautiful in the spring!

For the holiday show, I had a couple Glen Magna estate pieces revitalized with a white pearlescent-finish Chalk Paint from Annie Sloan and reupholstered with a durable, sparkling champagne colored fabric from Kravet. Chair reupholstered by Home Decor Group. Chalk painted finish courtesy of Maison Decor. Pink velvet pillow with Greek Key from Bassett.

A recent “paint night” canvas of mine made it on the spring styled book shelves. My instructor was Mary Taggart of TaggArt Studios who painted the birch tree mural in the powder room (this surprise mural was an all-around show house favorite!)
