Isn’t it interesting to see what a design floor looks like? Behind the scenes. Happy Friday and have a good weekend!
I love seeing the prints. Beautiful.
How cool! This was so cool, love all your posts. I always learn so much.
How cool, wish my closet had this many colorful options!
I wish I had the talent to do that kind of work!
So much creativity in one room– looks like a happy place to be!
The design floor is such a unique and creative place. Love the work that goes on up there!
