You know Sherry and I work on keeping things concise, so Avis’s submission was a perfect reminder that a big impact doesn’t require many words. Her email laid out the essentials of the project, but her photos tell most of the story—clearly and effectively. See for yourself below:
Sherry and John, hi! I’m Avis. I started reading your blog this year and quickly fell in love. While we don’t have a Clara (the cutest accessory ever!), we do have a few Burgers roaming the office. In addition to designing stationery, I do some DIY remodeling in my condo in Decatur, GA. I was inspired by your posts to redo my dining room, and I thought you might like the results.
There you have it. While we don’t have exact paint names or direct product links, Avis’s story and photographs showcase a smart, affordable approach to design. The makeover demonstrates how a few thoughtful changes—color, texture, and styling—can transform a space without a large budget. Her blog features more photos from this project and a lively mix of other design posts; if you have specific questions about the makeover, hopefully Avis will drop by to answer them when she has a moment. Meanwhile, Sherry has been quietly whispering “metallic paint… genius,” which seems perfectly reasonable.
Thanks, Avis, for sharing a refreshing makeover and an inspiring blog style!
