A Peek Inside My Office

January 28, 2016 /
Behind The Scenes / DIY

    Here’s a little peek inside my office. And when I say little peek, I mean this very honestly may be the most of my office you will ever see. Why? Well, because it is a “creative space”. A place where I work, make things, be creative, make messes – and rarely have everything picked up. This serene little spot is right above the table where I work on my computer and all of my…

Sorry for the Silence & Home Decorating 101

October 23, 2014 /
Behind The Scenes / New News

Oh my! I must say: sorry for the silence! I had a “No – it can’t be!” moment when I looked at my post list – reading that my last post was on October 7. And somehow, October 7 was over 2 weeks ago?! Ah! And now, the pressure’s on – I mean, if you haven’t posted anything for 2 weeks – you should probably have something epic to write about, right?!  Well, here’s what I got……

Online Shopping: World Market

September 02, 2014 /
Behind The Scenes / Fab Find

Hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! Did you have extra time to relax and have fun? I did a lot of online shopping this weekend. I have several rooms to shop for, and I usually peruse the inter-web & local stores before making a list of items yet to find at shops in “the big cities”. World Market is a traditional stop when I’m hoping to find home decor with a…

A Rardon Bathroom

August 08, 2014 /
Behind The Scenes / Inspiration / Sneak Peek

    Some things are in the mix at the Rardon home! …all because of a little hole in a frozen pipe. Ugh. One evening (while at a dance recital with a friend) I got a text from Phil, “Just so you’re not surprised when you get home, we have a little water in the basement”. Oh boy. It ended up being a little more than a little. You could splash in our carpet. Yep,…

Behind The Scenes / Inspiration

Hello friends! Oh. My. Goodness. Did you think I fell off the face of the Earth? I kinda fell off the face of the world wide web, that’s for sure!

I love blog world, and I don’t want to disappoint you guys by not being present. But there’s…

Using Photoshop To Visualize Art Placement

July 11, 2014 /
Behind The Scenes / Design Tips

On Tuesday, we talked about using variety when choosing artwork. The type of art one chooses is important. Does the space call for a framed piece, a canvas painting, a mirror for reflection, a metal or sculptural piece for texture, etc? Scale (or size) is equally important. Can the piece be a smaller scale, because it is not the primary focus? Does the piece need to be larger so it’s not overwhelmed by…

A Week in the Life of…

June 28, 2014 /
Behind The Scenes

What a week! I probably shouldn’t call myself out, but did anyone notice I missed my Friday post yesterday? Eek – so sorry! This week I celebrated my birth [thanks mom and dad!], decorated for a wedding [first time ever as Rardon Design, and not just a friend-helping-out-a-friend], and made some progress on the Rardon home!  Since it wasn’t a normal week, it calls for a not-so-normal blog post! Today I’m going to share a…

Bathroom Finishing Touches

June 24, 2014 /
Behind The Scenes / Design Tips / Inspiration

Anyone have a bathroom update going on? We definitely do at the Rardon household. [And it may have gotten a little bit more serious due to water damage we recently had from a pipe break in our basement. Ugh.  Don’t want to get too far ahead of myself on that one though – it will probably be a substantial amount of time until I have an update on that remodel.] I have some client bathroom…

Painted School Chairs

June 17, 2014 /
Before & After / Behind The Scenes / DIY / Upcycled

The finale to the nook design: painted, school chairs!   Perhaps one of my fav DIY projects to date. I found these gorgeous, curvalicious wood school chairs at Borgman’s here in Norfolk. They were a basement bargain… literally: In the musty basement. And totally a bargain = $5 a piece!   Even better: I already had some black paint to paint the pattern. Score!   I knew I…
