Approachable Design

So, what do we mean by ‘approachable design’? We believe that the modern role of interior designers has changed from its historical beginnings.  Homeowners today have so many resources at their fingertips. 
We acknowledge and appreciate what you, the homeowner, have learned through television, magazines & the internet.  By understanding and respecting the perspective you bring to the table, we work with you to lend a hand in the areas you feel you need assistance in. We are not a traditional design ‘firm’, and our owners names aren't contained within our business title for a reason.  The styles we create for you are not imitations of our own personalities, but rather that of you, our client.  Lintels & Lallies aims to be approachable in every way possible to serve your needs.  While we do believe a home should be a balanced functional place, it is most important that it reflect you & your family.  We do not ‘push’ our visions, but rather gently guide you in the right direction in areas of question.  Interior design shouldn’t be intimidating - it should be a fun experience from start to finish.  So, let’s work together to make your vision reality!  Call today for your free consultation.

Visual Story-telling Through Art & Interiors

(If you've already read this post, scroll down to the bottom for the updated images!) One of the things that make my design process unique is the way I use art.   Many people think of art as an afterthought, or just an accessory.     When I can, I try to use it as inspiration to build a room from.    That is exactly what I did when designing my kitchen.   About 12 years ago, I purchased my first pieces of art, which included these two great vintage magazine covers.   I love their personality, history, and humor.   My goal was to evoke that *feeling* in our kitchen.   I also used a literal translation, by mimicking the colors in the art.   You’ll see the same colors in my barstool fabric, my cabinets, and even the cream background of the art is what I used in selecting my countertops. Here are the vintage magazine covers I used.   Being a picky eater growing up, I could totally relate to wanting to feed the dog under t...

Perfect Gift

Awhile ago I mentioned a deeply personal gift I got my hubby for our anniversary.  With Valentine's Day around the corner, I thought I'd share this unique gift with you. Below is an abstract canvas by "Voice Art Gallery".   Just like thumbprints, each of us has our own unique voice and when viewed in sound waves no two are alike. Voice Art Gallery has put this into a beautiful work of art.  You can record and upload anything...a baby's first heartbeat,  sing a song, read a poem, you name it!  You can even customize the size, color & frame. So how do you read it?  Each print comes with a certificate/link you can even get a QR code that your iPhone can scan and it will play your recording! Sorry folks, I'll never share what my message was, but you can see it framed below! To learn more, make your own or visit the friendly staff at: http://www.voiceartgallery.com

My Visit to Magnolia Market - Silos

I've been busy--it's been difficult to make time for blogging!  However, my visit to Magnolia Market I feel, is *blog-worthy*.  😆 So I'm making time to write  at 10:00pm .  Right off, let me answer the top two questions everyone's been asking.  Then, I'll expand into the nitty gritty of my visit. 1. Did I meet Chip & JoAnna Gaines?  No.  I tried to check their appearance schedule and even went as far as to try to schedule a meeting with their public relations team member...but they were busy the week I was there. 2. Is it worth traveling to see?  My answer is to, wait.  Is it worth it?  Yes, but there's still work to be done, and if you're traveling as far as I did...you might want to go when it's more complete.  It was still great, but I think there's reasons to wait. If you are planning a trip in the near future regardless of my "wait" comment--I recommend you go in October 6-8th when they are having ...
