Today I am so excited to have my bestie Mary Catherine of the fabulous Cotton & Quill over on my blog! We have been friends since middle school and I am so excited to see her fabulous brand expanding everyday! She is such a gifted designer and her textiles and stationery are absolutely fabulous! She is most definitely up and coming!
While Gracie, one of the most fashionable and entertaining person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, gives us all a daily dose of what's trending in fashion, beauty and Southern living, I am here to offer a little dose of what's trending for the home.

For those of you who don't know me, I am the founder and principal designer for Cotton + Quill, a custom textile and stationery company out of Birmingham, Alabama, so I have become quite familiar with how to make current trends work in your home.

The client already had this gorgeous black lacquered chest with oyster and gold details, and then we found a pair of foo dogs, which is a MUST in every home, and draped the windows with custom drapes in Cotton + Quill's Cuckoo pattern from the Terrace Collection in a custom turquoise hue.

Lastly, another chic look to include in your home is a lacquered piece. You saw earlier how my client for the American Bungalow had her own Asian black lacquered piece, but you can also create your own lacquered piece with Amy Howard's spray paint lacquer.....I used La Grange for this fun piece....full DIY on the Quill Notes blog.
