I’ve recently come across another new blogger (surprise, there are always new ones out there!). She’s been blogging about a year now and she just moved this year to Woodstock, GA, not far from me. Her name is Emily and she blogs at Gold and Stripes and she has a modern aesthetic using lots of black and white and bold colors too. She’s in a rental house right now, but that didn’t stop her from doing a few projects and making the most of it. Hope you enjoy the tour of this pretty home that Emily has created.
I love her use of black and the gold accents really pop. She added that Greek key ribbon to the lampshades, which is a nice touch.
She’s recently completed a gallery wall to accent the wall where the TV is housed and it looks so pretty.
She used several mismatched frames and sprayed them all gold to use with her prints and thrifted them all. Love a bargain hunting girl!
Black hutch in the living room space and I spy a black door too.
She has updated her bathrooms and made them really cute.
Stripes in the powder room adds a lot of pizazz.
The dining area with more black pieces and some mirrored frames and artwork.
The breakfast area sports a table and gold bamboo chairs. Those are so cute!
The master bedroom has an upholstered headboard and black and white striped pillows.
A few pops of color are scattered around.
Looks like the hutch has been moved around from space to space, it’s a great piece for storage.
Her daughter’s room is pretty in pink….and black and white.
Very cute space for Addy.
What little girl wouldn’t love a pink kitchen all her own? So adorable!
Emily loves DIY project too and scored this campaign chest on Craigslist, giving it a fun makeover.
Hope you enjoyed seeing Emily’s Georgia home and get inspired for your own space. Say hello to Gold and Stripes and pay her a visit, I know she’d love to meet you all.
Happy Friday! Today, I’m being featured over at Porch.com, so stop over and read the interview they did with me!
WE ARE JUST SEEING THE SAME ELEMENTS ALL OVER AGAIN, JUST REARRANGED..HOW ABOUT SOMETHING DIFFERENT. LET’S LOOK BEYOND THE TRENDS FOR A CHANGE!
Gilda, I share a variety of styles and tastes on Feature Friday, so stay tuned, there is sure to be something you like.
Hum…what do you suggest?
The little girls room is so precious. Perfection!
Thank you so much Terry!
LOVE the pink kitchen in Addy’s room!
Thanks, Deb! My girl loves it too 🙂
I smiled to myself when I saw that pretty pink kitchen/bedroom combo. I bet mom had to do some quick photography on that one – as I doubt Addy keeps such a spotless kitchen on most days. 🙂
You were right on the money! I clean her kitchen every night and by the time she’s out of her bed the next day, it’s back to chaos!
Love your campaign chest — I scored a similar one in Roswell, after one of Rhoda’s thrifting tours! 🙂
I die every time I see one! Never enough campaign furniture! 🙂
Loved her gallery wall and her little girls room is ADORABLE!!
Thank you, Martina 🙂 Her room is pretty special to both of us!
I adore Addy’s little pink kitchen!! So sweet!!

Rhoda, we’re so happy to have you over on Porch today! Thanks for sharing Emily’s photos…Addy’s room is too cute!

Addy’s kitchen is precious! Love the plates on the wall.
She’s done a great job and kudos especially because it’s a rental.
Gilda needs to tone it down and not be so rude.
Thank you, Nancy! We work with what we’ve got but hey, to each his own 😉
I just love Emily’s style and how she’s created such a fun, welcoming home for her family!
Thank you, Kris! I’m a pretty big fan of you too 🙂
Emily…..You did a beautiful job making your rental into a home for your family. Love your style!!! Congratulations on your one year anniversary blogging !! Just looking into these few pictures on Rhoda’s blog I am going to start following you. Can’t wait to see how you decorate Your house when the time comes! By the way we are neighbors. I live in Canton.
You are so sweet, Debbie! I’m thrilled to have a new follower! And you’re so close to me…how fun!
