Before & After by Match ..

nice bones as they say

can you see why I said 'you've gotta be kidding!!'

not very inspiring huh!

now THAT'S a bedroom


You know sometimes when you see something that is SO impressive it just leaves you speechless? Well, when I saw these images on the super talented California-creative Match blog, I wasn't speechless - I actually said (to my computer, as noone else was around) 'You've gotta be kidding'!! No joke, ask my computer if you think I'm telling fibs.

As far as before and afters go these shots are even more impressive as there is nothing architecturally changed in them. Just the furniture, paint colours etc (and of course, fancy photography always helps). As both Whitney and Kevin are renters, they work their charm and use their creativity in creating stylish homes without needing to change the house. Cool huh.

I am always so impressed at how interior designers see empty spaces and then create such amazing interiors. A-mazing!!

ps. do you think it is Whitney (houston) and Kevin (costner) - as in Bodyguard - Oh, I do love that movie.

  5. Yes! Stunning make-overs - I especially love the living area. Cozy and inviting. A room to love!

    'Bodyguard'.. yes it's a lovely movie. It makes me a little sad to see how far Whitney has tumbled in real life though. She's so stunning in the movie and now she really is a picture of all the pain and hardship she has been through. It's so sad isn't it.

    Big hugs to you my friend. I think of you so often and we must catch up via email soon. It's been far too long and I am brutally aware that it's all my fault.. Being a 'single parent' here in Sweden is absorbing the hours. It's fun and I'm loving every moment, but it leaves so little time to do anything else. I tumble in bed with the kids before 8 o'clock almost every night.. :)

    Big hugs to you.

    xx Charlotta

  7. Oh Whitney - I hope you weren't too annoyed I referred to you both as movie stars. You are both stars as it is ..

    And truly, you do work magic with your interiors - so my pleasure to have done a post about you.
