Because they travel so much they’re able to meet lots of people and acquire a lot of photos from their travels so it was only fitting to have a place for their friends and family when they come to visit.  My clients called me to do their guest room for them because they wanted to finally have a place for their guest and all their beautiful photos they take on their travels. Now as you all may know in most of my designs I’m always challenged to use something or use a color the homeowner already chosen and this room was no different. My challenge this time was the paint color the homeowner chose himself and his wife was dead set against but guesses what? This was no challenge at all for me because I was so happy he made the choice because I didn’t have to be blamed for it! “hmmm isn’t hat selfish of me” but no really I loved the color from the first time I laid eyes on it. The Smokey gray color is very modern so the real challenge was discovering how to bring traditional and modern together. <span style="font-size: 20pt;"> </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 20pt;">Did I do it?</span><br /><b></b><br />Check out the before picture of the guest bedroom<br /><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrPm8Zzi0RcuOMfGs95gayli3kFCQNrLGj2m4nxOcb_DKgG_j4Pr6QPg1yY-QJDSVUQ1k1OBkhmI-cwKjoduCQ85nF6PaoXUYQ47qNOAyoAg0TLW_iBWE05h2eo3H0nrdLTTa4ImR34cE/s1600/before+pic2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrPm8Zzi0RcuOMfGs95gayli3kFCQNrLGj2m4nxOcb_DKgG_j4Pr6QPg1yY-QJDSVUQ1k1OBkhmI-cwKjoduCQ85nF6PaoXUYQ47qNOAyoAg0TLW_iBWE05h2eo3H0nrdLTTa4ImR34cE/s640/before+pic2.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Beautiful Smokey Gray Walls and a beautiful cherry-wood twin bed.
