After: Bright and Sunny Entertaining Space

Sarah completely transformed the space with fresh, bright wall paint, modern blue and white furniture and interesting architectural elements like a custom plate rail. The brown window frame was painted white and flanked by cheery floor-to-ceiling white and turquoise drapes to make the space feel larger. A chic fabric-covered coffee table and nautical-themed striped blue rug tie in with the room's blue decor and add warmth to the new eucalyptus flooring.
