Polly’s Party Set Up

Oh my gosh! We’re all ready for Polly’s party this afternoon, but there was almost a disaster that gave the whole thing away today and it was all my fault! Remember how we couldn’t decide what cake to make for Polly’s party? Well, in the end you all helped us to decide that Roberta’s and Cowabelle’s panda cake would be perfect. But a lot of you really seemed to like the cupcakes too so we thought why not do both? It just seemed to fit, don’t you think? So Nibbles and I were up late last night working on the cupcakes, and I was supposed to bring them over to Roberta’s this afternoon So I put the cupcakes in a box and walked out my door and guess who was standing right there? Yep. It was Polly popping in to see if I was home. The first thing she says is “What’s in the box?” I just stammered (have I ever mentioned that I’m not so good at thinking on my feet?) and then she reached over and opened the box! There were all of our panda paw print cupcakes, right under Polly’s nose! Lucky for me, just then Nibbles … Read more

Fluffington’s Movie Theater

Hailey: Know what Fluffington is famous for?Elwin: His love of the arts?Hailey: Something else. Elwin: His fabulous parties?Hailey: Try again.Elwin: His incredible wealth? Hailey: Bingo! Yes, Fluffington is famous for being very, very wealthy. And that’s why we weren’t very surprised when he asked us to build him a theater in his basement. Elwin: A movie theater! In his basement! Hailey: Elwin and I were able to find the seats, wallpaper, flooring, standee, lights and carpet at the W Shop. But we were missing something pretty significant. Elwin: The screen. The gigantic, ginormous screen. Hailey: THAT, my dear friends, is a Rare item. Elwin: A beautiful Rare item. One that I would LOVE to have in my home theater. Hailey: Uh, Elwin? You don’t have a home theater. Elwin: Oh. Right. Well…you know, one day. When I do. Hailey: Sure. Until then, though, we can visit Fluffington and watch movies at his place. We have a standing invitation! Elwin: One of the many perks of being a Designer Elephant. I love my job.

A Big Announcement

                Oh my gosh! It’s Cowabelle and I just heard the most exciting news ever!!! Dacey called and told me that she is coming to town because she is going to be one of the judges on ‘Kinzville Sings’! ‘Kinzville Sings’ is the most awesome singing contest EVER and they’re holding auditions! Anyone can try out! ‘Kinzville Sings’ is my favorite show. It’s so crazy – all of these singers get up on stage and perform. Some of them really can’t sing at all, but some of them are amazing! If they pick you then you get to go on TV and perform in front of the judges!  There’s a whole panel of judges and they watch the singers and then choose the best ones to make it through to the final. And the audience gets to vote too! And in the end the winner of the whole contest gets a recording contract and gets to go on tour. This is like my dream come true! I am going to audition for ‘Kinzville Sings’ and I just know I am going to knock the judges’ socks off!  Wish me luck!

Wiggles’ New Apartment

Elwin: Since Plumpy is going to be getting married, her best friend Wiggles is moving into a place of his own – his very own bachelor apartment! He asked us to make him a room that’s not only open and airy, but also chic and cool. Hailey and I put our heads together and this is what we came up with.     Hailey: I actually love this room! From the bare brick walls to the stainless steel appliances, it’s incredibly cool. Elwin: I agree. My favorite pieces have to be the card dividers. Wiggles is an ace poker player, so he quite liked them. Hailey: That TV is something else…I hope Wiggles invites us over for a movie night. Elwin: And the jukebox? And hand-carved statue? How awesome are those? Hailey: Very awesome. Just goes to show: you don’t need to use a theme to make a room look put together! Elwin: So true. Having a lot of Rare items doesn’t hurt, though, does it? Hailey: Definitely not.

Ancient Civilization Theme

There’s something to be said for simplicity, and that’s probably why I like the Ancient Civilization theme so much! It works with such a basic palette, but looks so striking. See what I mean?     The flooring and walls are a lovely muted gray/grayish blue color. This works perfectly with the rich wooden tables and chest, and the deep purple upholstery. The bright red shields on the wall are the ideal accent in this lovely, understated room. Now, I have to say that Elwin and I don’t exactly agree on how wonderful this theme is. I LOVE it. His comment? “It needs more color.” Some designers just don’t appreciate subtlety. What do you think of this theme, friends?

Whimsical Wonderland Theme

Elwin here with a Rare theme I hope you’ll love as much as I do: the Whimsical Wonderland theme!  As you all know, I tend to like decorating with…let’s say, wilder colors and elements. When the Whimsical Wonderland theme came out, I couldn’t believe my eyes – this was exactly what I had been waiting for! A theme so wacky, so wild – it was perfect!     Anyway, I created a room a while back for a client of mine. I really liked it, so I kept a picture for my portfolio. I love every part of this room – from the heart wallpaper to the indoor garden. How many pets can say that they’ve got an INDOOR garden? The vibrant colors are just fabulous, and I have a soft spot in my heart for the bubble-blowing caterpillar. What piece of this theme do you like best, my friends?

Roberta’s New Craft Room

                      So I guess this whole baby thing is turning out pretty well. Our new house is pretty cool, but the best thing about it? I get a whole room JUST for making crafts!!! How awesome is that? There is this room in the basement that used to be the laundry room before they moved the laundry room upstairs. So it’s even got a couple of sinks which is perfect. And you know what else? Because my mom and dad hired Hailey and Elwin to decorate our new house, they are going help me decorate my craft room too! How many kids get to have professional designers come and design their craft room? I am so pumped! Especially with all the cool pieces from the Creative Studio Theme that are in the W Shop! Hailey said that we could try it a few different ways and then I could decide which one I liked best, so Hailey designed it one way, Elwin did another design and then the three of us worked together to come up with a third design.                     … Read more

Medieval Room Theme

Elwin here with another awesome Rare room theme to share! It’s one of my all-time favorites: the Medieval theme!   I created this room for a client who happened to love all things medieval. This was in his basement, and he wanted it to feel like a special castle hideaway. I LOVE the long dining table (perfect for hosting royal gatherings), the knights standing on guard, the thrones (as you can see, my client’s wife enjoyed her throne immensely), and the sitting area. I also really like the bedroom, and how it’s set apart from the rest of the room by the gorgeous  dividers (I got those at the eStore). The drapes, tapestries and windows are excellent accessories, and the stone walls and floor really makes this room look like it’s from back in medieval times! If you want to build a Medieval lair of your own, read on to find out how to get Rare items!

Robert Rabbit’s Workshop Makeover

Elwin here, with our second-to-last room makeover at the Rabbit house. Today, we redid Robert’s workshop. Robert loves woodworking and making all kinds of neat things (that’s probably where Molly gets her craftiness). The room had been used as a workshop before, but it wasn’t very well set up. A good workshop needs to have a place for everything, so it doesn’t look too cluttered.   Robert was THRILLED to see this set up. He said that he’ll make us a rocking chair for our office. Nice!
