Another chic transformation by Swoonworthy.

And the gallery wall!

So flattered to see a collage

Peace to you right where you are.

    Swooning over here! (That sunburst mirror should really live with me…).

    I love a home with some uniqueness and personality. That takes confidence (and it this case also — a great design eye).

    Hugs to you both!
