Where, oh where has my favorite blog gone....

I know that we have been conspicuously absent from the blog world, but we have finally moved into our new design studio and let me tell you – that was no small feat. I’m sure I have permanent brain damage due to lack of sleep and planning a party for 250 people.

I wanted to share our before and after pictures because I am in love with the transformation that took place in our little 1,000 square foot space. We were lucky enough to start with a pretty blank slate – a square box with great natural light and a brick wall. The not so lucky things were the pole that sits in the middle of the room and the ugly industrial carpet in the space. For a while Heather and I went back and forth – “Embrace the pole? Don’t embrace the pole?….” We decided to just let the pole be and address it in the future. We are thinking of maybe wrapping it in leather or some delicious Maya Romanoff wallcovering. Stay tuned for that.

This was the blank space. We laid all of the furniture out in blue tape, just to be sure.

We had a turquoise brick wall, which is GREAT, but our color scheme is white, gold, grey and silver so it didn't really work. So we painted it charcoal. Here's the in between picture of that same space:

And almost after:

Our bathroom - wasn't bad, actually. But we decided to paint it a light grey, put in a new chandelier and cover the walls with chandelier pics. It's our logo, so.....well, it was the best way to cover up the crazy walls in there.

And this weird cutout:

Became this:

Of course Gigi helped out with all aspects of the remodel

Eventually we will have our space photographed professionally by our fabulous celebrity photographer.

In the meantime, here are some of her images around the office from our Grand Opening shindig:

Check out our Facebook page for more photos of the party, or par-tay, as Heather calls it. We were even joined by our lovely mayor and had a fabulous time!

You must come and visit us at the new place -we would love to have you! Cheers!

It's a relocation situation

The day has finally come and tomorrrow we are moving. We are so excited, we cannot contain ourselves. Even packing was fun. We're moving to the Arts District in Downtown Las Vegas and will be surrounded by artists, musicians, vagrants, gritty urban scenes and overall delicious beauty. Stay tuned for info on the grand opening bash.

Our color scheme is a combination of charcoal gray and white with accents of gold and chrome.

Here's a sneak preview of some of the things we've ordered for our fabulous new office:

Floor lamps from Arteriors, flanking a console similar to this from Christopher Guy, in white lacquer (our favorite!):

We're thinking of hanging this mirror, from Z Gallerie, over the console:

Our fabulous receptionist/intern will be sitting in this white leather chair from West Elm:

We're using these beautiful storage boxes, in charcoal, also from West Elm:

We have 2 chandeliers hanging over our conference table, from Cyan Design. They kinda look like this:

Check our their website, they have FABULOUS stuff.

The ladies from LMS are hooking us up with a conference table top in Zebra wood, like this. We love them!!!

We found some a-mazing chrome based conference chairs on Craig's list that we're having recovered.

We also found a funky 70's style banquet bar. We're having it reupholstered in shiny gold faux-leather, smoke gray rhinestone nailheads and antique mirror on top. Sick.

Here are the barstools from CB2 :

These are our desk chairs from Zuo:

That's all I'm gonna show you for now. We'll be back with more pics, tidbits and anecdotes from our new home DOWNTOWN lil mama's!!!!!
