CONNECTICUT MAKEOVER

When Lisa Story and her interior designer sister, Sara decided to makeover Lisa and her family's home, things got done.  Lisa, husband Phi, and their two children moved to this Connecticut home, but it had a 70s look.  This especially bothered sister Sara.

Sara and Lisa replaced cabinetry, appliances, curtains, flooring, wallpaper, woodwork, furniture, and painted and wallpapered furniture.  What resulted was a lovely home for Lisa and her family.  ENJOY!

    what a lovely home. They did such a great job. I really love the brown and white wallpaper. I would love to use it in a different color in my own home.

    Love the dining room with the wallpaper. She is so right about how having a nice house can change your life. Women get such pleasure out of a beautiful environment. It can change your attitude and disposition.

    Matching the wall paper color and furniture color is a good idea. But think its bit too expensive if you are one who likes the colors to be changed according to seasons.
