Baymax Milkshakes

I surprised  the boys today by making these Baymax milkshakes for them to enjoy while watching Big Hero 6! I simply made a vanilla milkshake, poured into a round glass & added Baymax face. You could always make a chocolate chip or an Oreo milkshake but I thought the vanilla looked the most like Baymax.  

Green glass pendant

Check out this gorgeous green glass pendant from PB for my clients kitchen redesign!  I'm using two over the kitchen table!

Oscar Girls Night In


Sadly, this year I'm not having the girls over to watch the oscars in our glam pjs to eat yummy appetizers & snacks! However, I still love this party I did a few years ago with these fab printables from HWTM!  We have ASU basketball tickets so I will be watching it later after the game...can't wait to see all the fashion & fabulousness!

This morning I'm looking for several furniture pieces for a client finishing up an extensive renovation. She specified that she would like to have white swivel counter stools for her modern kitchen. These are my top four faves-which is yours?

50 Shades of Grey Favors

Who's going to the 50 Shades of Grey  movie this weekend? I'm wrapping up some kisses for the premiere tonight for the girls!  I put them in a elegant black box, tied them with a ribbon ( I wanted white rope but I couldn't fun any) & filled them with silver kisses. (Silver is a shade of grey right?)  I made a cute & simple tag & we are all set. 

Celebrating 13 years

Thirteen years ago today I opened my design studio, Puerta Bella Interior Design. I'm so thankful and appreciative that I get to do what I love every single day!

Vanity ottoman

We started off this project with a drab, inexpensive storage ottoman & turned it into a fabulous vanity stool for my tween chic client! We used a fuschia velvet,  added a tufted top and of course every little girl wants bling nailheads. I covered the inexpensive legs with the tailored box pleat skirt.  

 
What a fun transformation!

Cabinetry interior color

Designer Tip: When selecting white cabinetry, choose a darker interior finish for a warm & rich look!   I love the contrast between the light & dark-it also gives cabinetry a custom, high end feel.
