Hi guys! Sorry I haven't checked-in for quite some time. I've been down for the count with some health issues so I haven't really been able to work on very many projects. Anyways, while I was taking a little DIY break, Holly from Chairish.com contacted me to see if I was interested in creating a Mad Men inspired room with the Mid Century Modern pieces found on their website. You bet I took on the challenge! I love stepping out of my comfort zone and creating rooms that aren't necessarily my "style", but still have key elements that reflect my sense of taste.
For my design challenge, I chose to design Peggy Olson's living room. When I think about Peggy's style, I think about modest pieces accented with small, interesting details and colors. I wanted to use a simple color palette and tie in the wood details that were common during those decades. I also wanted to add the chandelier for a little unexpected bling.
All of the items pictured above can be found at Chairish.com. I want to thank Holly and Chairish for giving me the opportunity to create this room! What do you guys think? Who's your favorite character from Mad Men?
