Persephone’s Pink Kitchen
Hey, Webkinz fans! Guess what? Persephone was so happy with the bedroom and bathroom that we designed for her she asked Elwin and me to design her kitchen too. She was at a loss – she had a really big space, and she wanted to multitask. She needed plenty of space for food prep and cooking, as well as a dining area with enough space to entertain a large group of friends. She also wanted a work space and with all that in mind, Elwin and I thought it would be really nice to give her an area where she could relax too. Persephone’s one stipulation was that the kitchen be bright and fun. She spends so much time there it needs to be uplifting and cheery. Well, cheery was what Persephone wanted and cheery is what she got. We saw the Ice Cream Parlor Wallpaper and we knew right away that it captured the look we were trying to achieve. By pairing it with the Lily Pad Flooring, we gave ourselves a great accent color with the vibrant green. We picked up that green in the Fresh Glass Dining Table and Sweet Releaf Chairs, as well … Read more

Hailey & Elwin’s Pink Bedroom Makeover
Hey Webkinz fans! It’s me, Hailey! Persephone Poodle has hired Elwin and me to design her bedroom and bathroom! We’re so excited! She said that we can have complete creative freedom with two conditions – the rooms have to be pink, and they have to be sophisticated. We can do that! We’re still working on the bathroom so for now we’re going to take you through the bedroom design. We know how fashionable Persephone is so we wanted to create a bedroom that really captured her unique personality. We started with soft coral walls and set it off with the Nursery flooring. The light pink tiles pick up the wall color while the darker pink tiles let us bring in brighter shades as well. The wooden flooring adds an elegant feel. I just love the combination of brown and pink – I think it is so stylish! That’s why we chose the Mocha Magic Low bed and the Tri-Mirror Mocha dresser. The chocolatey hues set off the pinks perfectly and the bed even comes with magenta pillows! The KinzVision HDTV was right in keeping with our Mocha accents and the sleek look of all three pieces captured … Read more
