My grandfather built his house not far away from his mother's log home. When she died, he converted hers into a wood workshop. I remember going there as a child; the place seemed like another world to me. Inside, there were stacks and stacks of tools, some big, some small, and you could always smell warm and earthy scents. A birch chair in one corner, an almost finished oak table in the other. It was so peaceful.

The Planning Out of all the DIY projects we do in our home, our bedroom has never made it to the top of the list. After almost 2.5 years, we have finally made it a priority! We painted right before we moved in, and we loved the color {Gray Mist by Behr Paint}, but that was as far as we made it. I've been pinning and saving pictures along the way and I always seemed to gravitate toward a classic look with rustic elements {my fave!} I also loved the way our board + batten entryway came together, so it was no surprise I ended up deciding on that style for our feature wall. For our bedroom, I really wanted a slightly more

Three years ago Chris and I stayed in the Maison De La Luz in New Orleans as an Anniversary getaway. I was so inspired with that hotel that it's been in my head ever since.
Amanda Hamilton Design has changed our lives! Adam and I had floated the idea of redecorating our bedroom around for a while. Actually, years, if I’m being honest. We truly hated the only room in our 700 square foot apartment, which meant that we didn’t like spending time in half our place. The opportunity to work with Vancouver based Jamie from Amanda Hamilton Interior Design came up and we jumped. It was time to finally spend the time and money to renovate our bedroom. The biggest take away from working with interior designers, is that it NEVER would have happened without Jamie and Amanda. Their professional design concept and guidance was that support we needed to make all the big decisions. I learned so much throughout this process and have such an appreciation for what they do. Remember what our bedroom looked like before? It was a disaster. We had oversized and mismatched furniture. I had WAY too much stuff. We weren’t utilizing any natural light or getting maximum square footage out of the room. It felt cramped and functioned poorly. And in terms of changes, we really didn’t even know where to start. Thanks to Jamie and Amanda’s vision, […]
