Any length of time between posts celebrating Atlanta’s gem of a creative genius (the Sherry) is SIMPLY TOO LONG. We love her heart and soul. We admire her eye for beauty, and we grow from her design guidance. Today’s post spotlights Sherry Hart: Natural, Rustic Luxe Design & Soothing Soul. Let it inspire, warm you to your core, and remind us how Spring, with its verdant hope, is oh so near.
Sherry Hart: Natural, Rustic Luxe Design & Soothing Soul Now
You’ll also find a smattering of humor weaved through her beautiful work because…um…Sherry has a Ph.D. in FUN.
When I began blogging at HL in Jaunuary of 2010 (yes, friends–this is Hello Lovely’s 12th year in the blog-o-verse), Design Indulgence (authored by Atlanta interior designer, Sherry Hart) was a daily read and quickly became my happy place on the web.
What Sherry offers design-savvy readers on her lovely site is awfully rare.
Yes, there’s laughter, skilled storytelling, and images of beautiful spaces she deftly deconstructs and demystifies.
But there’s also an authenticity. There’s a steady stream of conversational banter that feels so much like friendship, readers ultimately begin to recognize it as the real deal.
Journeying With a Beloved Blogger
All of these years reading Sher-lovely, laughing and celebrating the Sher, and even grieving with Sherry have left a mark.
We even care deeply about her furry babies!
Sherry’s Atlanta Home
What a blessing to journey with the creative dynamo and watch her design career blossom (remember her 2018 cover of House Beautiful!?!).
A devoted following has watched her professional and creative opportunities increase as well as her personal wisdom and courage deepen.

Like Sherry, those of us a certain age…ahem…particularly appreciate Stevie, and I found a super cool print with an ethereal feel you might like RIGHT HERE.

House Beautiful Whole Home
It was thrilling for fans to see Sherry Hart’s involvement with House Beautiful’s 2018 Whole Home in Atlanta. For a recap, be sure to watch this. (And don’t miss a CAMEO from CAMI, Sherry’s pooch at 1:32!!!)
For the Love of Neutrals & Textiles
I’m crazy about Sherry’s way with neutrals and her use of gorgeous pattern for walls and upholstery through the years!
Thank you, Sherry, for years of humor (mostly about random minutiae) and authenticity, for graciously sharing engaging content, stellar work, and your personal journey…you truly radiate life-giving warmth and sunshine, and we’re grateful!
Psst. I couldn’t fit my favorite Sherry Hart moments into one post, so GO TO part 2 HERE!
Peace to you right where you are.

Thanks so much for reading, Mary Ann. What a wild talent Sherry has for spaces and stories. Sherry is a favorite on this blog for sure, and she’s one of those un-influencer influencers. As far as I am concerned, if she says ‘buy this’ or ‘try this,’ I totally trust her curation and keen eye for beauty, and I’m sold. 🙂
Oh…My…Gracious! The home in House Beautiful is a dream. Be still my heart ❤️ Sherry Hart is a very talented designer.
I pinned your quote on the parking space and put it on Instagram. I’m afraid I would do that too, on a bad day. Well, not until we’re both dead but I would dawdle. I try to not react to ignorance but it is hard at times. Where’s my yoga mat?! 🙏🏼

Hahahaha – yes, I hear you on that parking thing. Thanks for playing along and sharing. I can feel good about where I’m at on the spiritual growth journey, and then BAM – if I’m hungry and run into a little rude behavior in a parking lot, my ego has a field day! So many incredible moments in that Whole Home project. As a vertically challenged human, I loved the luxurious fantasy closet…no more step ladders. And if I could have a doggie door like the one in that showhouse, how could I not fill the place with puppies? 🙂
For me, it was the steamer in the closet. Who am I kidding! It was the whole closet. ♥️ The four season room was a favourite too. I would spend a lot of time there soaking in the outdoors through the windows. You know how I love my garden.

I’m convinced closets can sell a house. I’m looking right now with our son, and he is swayed by the closet organizers! I’m like – that only cost a few hundred dollars, honey – look at the location and the kitchen…! I’m really thinking my ultimate home will have a three season porch or screened porch because I too am never bored gazing at nature outside. I feel like I haven’t seen enough coverage of beautiful back porches and solariums so maybe I need to create a post!
Sherry is such a talent!!! She has mastered the black & white interior!
Author
She HAS and she has also managed to create colorful, classic designs for House Beautiful! Now that is talent! Peace to you, and bon weekend!
Love Sherry Hart (& CAMI) and I first learned about her from YOU a while back…so thanks! I LOVE reading her posts…mostly because of her humor (ha!!) and she is SO real (makes you feel like a close friend), not to mention all the amazing decor wisdom she exudes! She’s def a favorite of mine, like you. 😁

There is so much to love – and Sherry brings joy and authenticity to all of her work and commentary like no other! She has made me feel so comfortable being myself in blogland which has room for all different voices and styles. xox
Michele….it seems I missed this….I will admit that my blog reading lately has fallen off. Just too much going on in my life. You are the sweetest kindest person ever. It is hard to believe that we have been blogging for so long….are we the only ones who are still at it:) It is hard too believe I have done some of that work….busy times and it all seems like a blur…..thank so much for this. It kind of came at a time when I need it.

We are the only dinosaur bloggers neurotic enough to keep at it I think, but hey, look at us endure! I’m still daydreaming about that design show we’re given that makes us filthy rich where you and I design for Keanu Reeves. Hahahahaha. I’m so happy to celebrate you, Sherry – your brilliance through the years has brightened my days and brought so many smiles. All of us treasure your authenticity and keen eye for beauty, and how you remain humble in spite of all the applause! Thank you for sharing so bravely, and do know that your name is being whispered in prayer.
Sherry rocks! I look forward to her blog every single week! ❤
Michelle, I love your blog as well.
Peace to you right where you are 😉❤

I do too, Debbie – thanks so much for tuning in! 🙂
Thank you for this post! I’ve been following Sherry for a long time. I’ve laughed and cried deeply with her. Loved seeing her work. Your the best!
Author
She is one of a kind so it’s always an honor to lift her up here! Thanks for tuning in, kindred spirit! xox
Two of my favorite bloggers. It’s nice to hear what you think about design but also letting us into your lives. Know that we care for you both.
