How did Holly turn a humdrum living room into a catalog worthy spread? We’ll never know. She did this before she had a blog! There’s no step-by-step documentation to prove that she didn’t just win the grand prize in a redecorating contest or rob a Pottery Barn truck. Guess we’ll have to take her word for it. Great job Holly!
Check out her blog Chic and Lovely to see what a difference just adding the mirrors (that I covet) made.

January 26, 2011 at 3:09 AMThanks for the sweet words Lindsey!! I can promise you that I didn’t win a redecorating contest OR rob a pottery barn truck (although I’d like to!!). It was all done through hard work, trial, and error 🙂
