I bought a new <a href="http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/eos_slr_camera_systems/lenses/ef_50mm_f_1_8_ii">lens,</a> and I've really enjoyed using it! Take a look.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BSidewalkCrepeMyrtles.jpg" /></center><br />The crape myrtles in our front "yard" are blooming beautifully.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9599.jpg" /></center><br />And it's raining petals.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9808.jpg" /></center><br />Kyle & I spent July 3rd in Fuquay-Varina with his high school/college friend Christian Duke and his girlfriend. Here are some photos I got of the fireworks show.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9829.jpg" /></center><br />I think this is the first time I've tried to photograph fireworks with my SLR camera. They are a little tricky to focus on since you don't know where they will pop next and they come and go so quickly.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BFireworksFuquay.jpg" /></center><br />Above left, you can see where the fireworks shot off from. Kyle and I referred to it as hell since it looked like a boiling red fire pit.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9899.jpg" /></center><br />Boom!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9817.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9841.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BIMG_9822.jpg" /></center><br />That's all for now. :)Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-37827904960114748432010-06-22T21:22:00.003-04:002010-06-22T21:25:34.322-04:00You think you know, but you have no ideaKyle is the marketing manager at the Bull's Head Bookshop at UNC.

Clearwater is where Kyle and I met, and we sometimes walked out on the pier to talk as we got to know one another. There's something about the warm sunset lighting that grazes across the surfaces that I love!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/TextBringDistance.jpg" /></center><br />I recently framed and hung them in our <a href="http://heymckay.blogspot.com/2009/05/our-first-place_31.html">powder room</a> for affordable art. The viewfinder looks like a face, with a gentle grin.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Bathroomphotos.jpg" /></center><br />I found these amusing viewfinder photos online. See what I mean?<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/ViewfinderFaces.jpg" /></center><br />I wouldn't mind taking more photos of these as we travel.

I've been spending a lot of time with this book, and that's not going to change any time soon. I'm sitting for the <a href="http://www.ncidq.org/AboutUs/AboutNCIDQ/NCIDQCertificate.aspx">NCIDQ exam</a> October 1-2 of this year. A two day exam isn't my idea of fun, but it will be worth it in the end. The NCIDQ is the professional exam for interior designers, and it's required in 26 states (although not currently required to practice in North Carolina). It focuses on the aspects of interior design that affect public health, life safety, and welfare - no creativity required. The test itself includes one day of multiple choice followed by a day of drafting. Whew! Needless to say, I can't wait to have it behind me!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Study.jpg" /><br /><br /></center>Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-77915908676073948962010-05-15T16:28:00.009-04:002010-05-15T17:56:59.898-04:00Thanks for Your Prayers!<center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Survivor-1.jpg" /></center><br />Thanks so much for your prayers and encouragement. Kyle had surgery earlier this week to remove the skin cancer on his chest, and everything went really well! It was caught very early and stayed superficial. As far as we can tell, his scar will probably just be round.Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-45587453946850794362010-05-06T18:56:00.003-04:002010-05-06T19:46:30.354-04:00But trust me on the sunscreen...<center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Sunscreen2.jpg" /></center><br />We got some news earlier in the week. In Kyle's own words, he said "I got the skin cancer." He called me just after I'd gotten to work with the results of his biopsy - <a href="https://health.google.com/health/ref/Basal+cell+carcinoma">basal cell carcinoma</a>. I immediately started to tear up and didn't stop for a little while. I cried several times throughout that day. Not because he's going to die (at least not from that), but because we're twenty five, because the word cancer is scary, and because there's nothing I can do to change it. I'm the one with blond hair, blue eyes, and visited the tanning bed a few times in high school - not Kyle. It took me by surprise and reminded me that life can't be taken for granted. God doesn't promise us health or wealth. We cannot know the number of days that we have; we can only worship Him with them.<br /><br />I'm reminded of the song that was popular back when we were in high school, <a href="http://www.lyricscrawler.com/song/3953.html">Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)</a>.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_2515b-1.jpg" /></center><br />I took this picture on our honeymoon, a little over a year and a half ago. The little red spot you see on his chest has grown since this was taken, and it will be completely removed next Wednesday. We'd appreciate your prayers - that they would get it all and that it wouldn't return. Kyle's also hoping that the scar from the surgery "looks really cool and turns out to be in the shape of something, like a chicken drumstick or an Abraham Lincoln silhouette."Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-84519963432800226392010-05-02T20:32:00.004-04:002010-05-02T20:58:55.656-04:0080's Kickball TournamentA few weeks ago, our Community Group participated in Sports That Serve's <a href="http://www.stsblog.com/">first annual kickball tournament</a> at Oakwood Park. Rob Shields, a friend of Kyle's from UNC, started <a href="http://sportsthatserve.com/default.html">Sports that Serve</a> a few years ago after working at an orphanage started by Mother Teresa in Ethiopia. He began the non-profit to impact the youth in America by running sports camps that raise money for orphans in Ethopia.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_8451b.jpg" /></center><br />Here's Kyle giving our team, Cobra Kai, a pep talk.

Jamie Meares opened the space about 5 months ago, looking for a fresh change of pace from the corporate world.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/FurbishStudio-Window.jpg" /></center><br />She refinishes and recovers furniture, making it adorably cute. The pieces have lots of personality with a dash of funk. Just what Raleigh needs if you ask me. :)<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/FurbishStudio-CabinetandQuote.jpg" /></center><br />Here are some photos from the store, borrowed from the Furbish Studio blog <a href="http://www.isuwannee.com/">I Suwanee</a>. Clever quotes are placed throughout the space, like the one above.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Furbish-ChevronSofa-1.jpg" /></center><br />I love this chevron settee! She said that she started with a collection of furniture she had stored in her basement, and she shops estate sales for new pieces.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/FurbishStudio-BlueCabinetandDog.jpg" /></center><br />Her dog Rowdy (yes, like <a href="http://scrubs.wikia.com/wiki/Rowdy">the dog from Scrubs</a>) is so cute! I love all the colorful pieces in the space. It's a wonderful mix of old and new. Be sure to check it out if you're around Glenwood South!

With work and everything else, it seemed an online class would be the most convenient. I got a digital SLR camera for graduation from my parents back in 2007, but I left it on the "Auto" setting most of the time. I didn't feel like I was getting the most out of the camera I had. <a href="http://www.smittenphotographyblog.com/?catID=34&about-sharon">Sharon Clark</a> came along and changed that! I took one of her workshops and really enjoyed it! Here are some of the photos I took during the class. {She's offering the next <a href="http://www.smittenphotographyblog.com/index.cfm?q=spa&x=0&y=0">online workshop in May</a> if you're interested!}<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_7191b.jpg" /></center><br />I learned how to achieve bokeh (or wonderfully blurry backgrounds that make the subject really pop).<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/TreeFencephotography.jpg" /></center><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6651d.jpg" /></center><br />I love the creative ring shots that wedding photographers take, so I decided to try one of my own with a play on Kyle's nickname for me, Egg.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_7004c.jpg" /></center><br />Kyle was excited for me to take the class but not as excited to serve as the subject matter. ;)<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/TrainTracksphotography.jpg" /></center><br />I can now shoot in fully manual, and I know how to have control over the camera to get the look that I want. <br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_8230b.jpg" /></center><br />Now I just need a new camera and a new lens or two! Isn't that the way technology works these days? :) But I'm trying to be patient, at least until next Christmas.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_8312c.jpg" /></center><br />Then Moses said to the Israelites, "See, the LORD has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts - to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones, to work in wood and to engage in all kinds of artistic craftsmanship. And he has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others. He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as craftsmen, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers—all of them master craftsmen and designers.<br /> Exodus 35:30-35<br /><br />God has given me the desire for all kinds of crafts. Growing up, I enjoyed drawing, painting, cross-stitching, and making collages. When we first got a computer, I spent a lot of time in Paint creating and printing designs. I had a Barbie house, which I loved, but I spent more time rearranging the furniture and making pillows and blankets for it than anything else. In college, I had the opportunity to take classes in so many things, and I don't think I've met a creative subject that I don't like. There is certainly a desire within me to create, and I can't imagine living in a time without the technology that we have today!Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-16182698781548801142010-04-14T21:18:00.008-04:002010-04-14T22:41:36.338-04:00(Belated Post) Advent at Vintage 21I love that <a href="http://www.vintage21.com/">our church</a> has a design team, that our God is a creative god, and that I have the opportunity to serve with the gifts He's given me! For the Advent season, the design team worked to incorporate our version of Christmas decorations, to tie in with the sermon series and help visitors feel welcome. A few pictures I snapped in the sanctuary are shown below.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_3736b.jpg" /></center><br />This idea started with Christmas stories that often begin with ornate drop caps. (For inspiring daily drop caps, <a href="http://dailydropcap.com/">click here</a>.) As we worked through the concept, we settled on using the text of the scripture to create the words peace, joy, hope, and love.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_3739b.jpg" /></center><br />We wanted the design to be interactive and to encourage others to remember the life of Christ by loving others, just as He did. The "Christmas tree" served as a drop off for cans of food, to be donated to those in need. Words that speak of the spirit of the season emanate from the communion stations.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/ChristmasVintage21.jpg" /></center><br />The lobby functions as an art gallery each month; photographers in the church took pictures to illustrate the words used in the series.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_3747b.jpg" /></center><br />Acrylic letters surround our painting of the Raleigh skyline.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_3748b.jpg" /></center><br />What a beautiful season it was!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_3754b.jpg" /></center>Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-72987452605722066012010-04-12T08:00:00.003-04:002010-04-12T23:05:15.633-04:00Friends Since BirthMy dear friend Isabel got married about a month ago in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I was so disappointed that I couldn't be there - we were born only a day apart, and we've known each other our whole lives. (I spent the whole weekend taking a prep class in Charlotte for the <a href="http://www.ncidq.org/AboutUs/AboutNCIDQ/NCIDQCertificate.aspx">NCIDQ</a> - not nearly as fun!) Here we are about three years ago, playing with the wedding ring favors at her sister's wedding.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_1879.jpg" /></center><br />And here are a few pictures from her wedding day by <a href="http://ashleymerrittphotography.blogspot.com/">Ashley Merritt Photography</a>:<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/SnowflakeWeddingCake.jpg" /></center><br />Beautiful!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/20100306-isabelwyatt085.jpg" /></center><br />The church has striking architecture!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BradfordWedding.jpg" /></center><br />Such a cute couple!

We have been busy over the last few months with weddings, birthdays, Christmas, a cruise, work, classes, church, community group, and more! I'll try to go back and blog about some of it over the coming weeks.<br /><br />To start things off, we were in Greensboro yesterday celebrating with Ryan and Lyndsay Semchenko! Their wedding was absolutely beautiful and such a testimony to the work that God is doing in their lives!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/SemchenkoWeddingDanceCenterpieces.jpg" /></center><br />The reception was held at the LEED certified <a href="http://www.proximityhotel.com/">Proximity Hotel</a>, which I loved!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/ProximityHotelLounge.jpg" /></center><br />Asian details reflect their mission work and where they started dating. The Chinese writing on their delicious cake says "Love." They will return to Asia later this year, but we're excited that they'll be in Cary as they raise support before they leave.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/SemchenkoWeddingCakeFortuneCookie.jpg" /></center><br />And here's <a href="http://dschneid12.blogspot.com/">Daniel</a>, who told me that he is keenly aware when someone is trying to take a candid picture of him - and he makes a face like this. I took it as a challenge. I got a few candid shots when he wasn't looking, but I had to be so quick that they turned out blurry.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_8402b.jpg" /></center><br />I also headed to Shelby for Isabel's wedding reception - I'll post some pictures from that soon. And now that we're back - is there anything you'd like to see me blog about?Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-54368201784668401332009-10-24T21:53:00.003-04:002009-10-25T20:10:05.418-04:00Design Lines celebrates 30 years!<center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6138b.jpg" /></center><br />A few weeks ago we celebrated a big event at <a href="http://www.designlinesltd.com/">Design Lines</a> - 30 years in business! My boss Judy Pickett started our firm in a yellow house on Glenwood Avenue in 1979 with $500 in her pocket.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/DesignLines6.jpg" /></center><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/DesignLines5.jpg" /></center><br />Not long after that, Laurie and Molly joined the firm, and Design Lines moved into a house on Peace Street. An old ad is shown above, featuring an old logo.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6189b.jpg" /></center><br />We celebrated at Judy's house with current and past clients, vendors, and of course the Design Lines staff! Cydney English at <a href="http://www.englishgardenraleigh.com/">The English Garden</a> provided the flowers - and they were beautiful as always!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/LKTags.jpg" /></center><br />Brittany's beautiful handwriting tagged each food item on the menu. The event was catered by <a href="http://www.lipservice-catering.com/">Lip Service</a>, and everything was delicious! Kyle and I had a great time. I especially enjoyed introducing him to clients and vendors that I work with everyday, but he'd never met before.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6232b.jpg" /></center><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/DesignLines4.jpg" /></center><br />Client's really enjoyed getting to see Judy's elegant home. Food was scattered in different rooms, with a tent in the front for additional gathering space. I snapped these photos before the guests arrived.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/DesignLines8.jpg" /></center><br />The powder room and entry hall are shown above.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6303b.jpg" /></center><br />I love this shot of the master bedroom - the soft light coming in the windows made the whole room glow!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/DesignLines7.jpg" /></center><br />The dining room is shown above left, with the dining chairs pulled away to allow room for guests. And on the right, another shot of the master bedroom. Judy has an amazing collection of original art!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6434b.jpg" /></center><br />The 84-85-86 crew! (In reverse order, based upon the year we were born.)<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_6406b.jpg" /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">And finally, the whole Design Lines team at the end of the night: Laurie (business admin), me, Ashley (designer), Judy (owner and designer), Molly (designer), Hilaire (communications), and Brittany (designer). The event was a huge success with around 200 guests! <a href="http://www.designlinesltd.com">Design Lines</a> has come a long way in thirty years!<br /></div></center>Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-46701907861828394752009-10-21T16:48:00.009-04:002009-10-21T17:52:32.614-04:00Decorating on a BudgetA friend of mine from college, <a href="http://www.paulandkatiecarruth.com/">Katie Carruth</a>, told me a few months ago that she was starting her own interior decorating business, <a href="http://www.charminginnovations.com/">Charming Innovations</a>. I was excited to hear about her shared passion for helping others with their homes, and I'm thrilled that she is pursuing what she loves! This past week, I was featured as a guest blogger on her site talking about decorating on a budget, and I thought I would share it with you!<br /><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Set a budget</span><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">This is probably the least fun part, but the most important! To prevent overspending while decorating, you need to understand what you can spend on each item. Begin by making a list of the items you need (sofa, pair of chairs, etc). Then, estimate how much you can spend on each and add the amounts together for your overall budget. This total will dictate what items you can afford to buy new, and what may need to be reused or bought secondhand. If the total you'd like to spend is more than what you have on hand, you should plan to make purchases over time, saving for the things you want.<br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Charming-Decor8.jpg" /></center><div style="text-align: center; font-style: italic;">Holly Becker of <a href="http://decor8blog.com/2008/10/23/decorating-on-a-budget/">Decor8</a> spent 1,400 euros or about $1,650 on her living room in Germany.</div><p></p> <p style="font-weight: bold;" class="MsoNormal">Know your options</p><p class="MsoNormal">As you begin to think of what you need for your room, realize that your material choices can directly affect your budget. For example, paint is less expensive than wallpaper, but if you really want the look of wallpaper, perhaps a stencil or wall decals could give a similar look. When shopping for upholstery pieces, know that leather is going to be the most expensive. Pre-made window treatments are less expensive than custom draperies, but you can get a similar effect by adding trim. <a href="http://www.charminginnovations.com/2009/10/07/guest-blogger-callie-from-simple-eye/">As Callie mentioned</a>, sisal rugs are usually more affordable than wool rugs. Laminate wood is less expensive than hardwood. Sometimes you can get the look for less! </p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Charming-DesignSponge.jpg" /></center><div style="text-align: center; font-style: italic;">This is one of my favorite before and afters from <a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/2009/08/before-after-jessicas-sofa-and-hollys-bamboo.html#more-30228">Design*Sponge!</a> Look at what a difference a little paint and fabric can make!</div><p></p><p style="font-weight: bold;" class="MsoNormal">Do it yourself</p><p class="MsoNormal">You can easily save money in your home by tackling some projects yourself! You can paint a room in a day for very little money. Painting is probably the cheapest and quickest way to transform a room! Hanging wallpaper is also a skill that can be learned fairly easily. Consider learning more about how to paint furniture, <a href="http://www.charminginnovations.com/2009/10/12/painted-furniture-makeover-edition/">just like Katie has done</a>. You may be able to transform furniture pieces that you are considering tossing! If you know how to sew or have an interest in learning, you can make pillow covers, tablecloths or runners, curtains, and more. That is a perfect way to give your room a custom look without paying more for it! When shopping for new furniture, look for pieces that you assemble yourself. They tend to be less expensive, but can have the quality of already-assembled pieces. You can also create your own artwork! Be inspired by abstract artists or take photos of some of your favorite places and have them enlarged! In your kid's rooms, photocopy illustrations from their favorite books for art they'll love! If it is a custom size but needs to be framed, buy a standard size frame and have the mat cut to size. Reusing anything you already have will certainly save you money - look for ways to transform it!</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Charming-LivingRoom2000.jpg" /></center><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Christie Kauffman at <a href="http://chriskauffman.blogspot.com/2009/07/price-my-space.html">Just Beachy</a> spent under $2000 on this room. She bargain hunts and uses slipcovers because she loves to change up the look.</span></div><p></p><p style="font-weight: bold;" class="MsoNormal">Shop smart</p><p class="MsoNormal">If you are on an Ikea budget, you shouldn't walk into Pottery Barn to find your main pieces. Be smart about where you allow yourself to shop so that you aren't tempted to overspend. You can find quality furniture and accessories at secondhand sources like Craigslist, Ebay, yard sales, consignment stores, flea markets. Check outlet stores or shop end of season sales. For your main pieces, don't buy anything too trendy that you are likely to tire of. Instead, use inexpensive accessories to add interest.</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Charming-Model.jpg" /></center><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">These two rooms were designed by Susan Tollefsen on a $5000 budget for the <a href="http://www.nationsnexttopmodelhome.com/index.php/tmh/susantollefsen">Nation's Next Top Model Home</a> competition - I love her design!</span><br /></div><p></p><p style="font-weight: bold;" class="MsoNormal">Spend wisely</p><p class="MsoNormal">For the most part, the saying is true - you get what you pay for. I'd like to make the point that getting the best price now may not be the wisest purchase. For example, bargain furniture stores sell sofas for $500 or so. A $500 sofa is made differently than a $1500 sofa. What is the difference, you ask? While it varies, it may mean that the wooden joints haven't been reinforced, the cushions are made of foam, and that the upholstery is synthetic. This means that the piece isn't as structurally sound and may crack over time. Foam cushions aren't as comfortable as feather cushions, and they aren't as likely to bounce back with use. Synthetic upholstery can be resilient, but I can promise you that the fabric on a $500 sofa was not expensive. Micro-fiber fabric, which is commonly used, is composed of little bits of fiber that are glued together to form the suede-like fabric. Overtime the glue will break down and the fibers will flake off. Consider that a $500 sofa may only last three years, while a $1500 sofa may last twenty-years, saving you a good bit of money in the long run. (The amounts mentioned are general, and are not direct indicators of the quality of the furniture.) I can hear you thinking: It makes sense that a $1500 sofa would be better quality, but I just can't afford that right now. Instead of buying new, consider buying used, but look for things made by reputable furniture companies.<br /></p>Find out as much as you can about how the furniture is made. I've seen pieces of painted, solid wood furniture that weren't primed first, and over time the wood began to show through! As for me, I spent the most on my sectional because that was the place that I could feel the biggest difference in quality based on the comfort. On the other hand, I knew I didn't want to spend much on a coffee table because I wanted to be able to put my feet up on it. Decide what is most important for you.<br /><br />I hope these tips help you stick to a budget while decorating your home! If they left you feeling overwhelmed about where to start or unsure of what items to keep and what to toss, consider hiring a professional to help you develop a design plan. With experience working within budgets, we can help you know where to look and how to cut costs.

While I've had it a few weeks, I just hadn't found the time to blog about it until now. <br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Charming-MyChair.jpg" /></center><br />Before and after. It love it! It is so comfortable and so cute now! I bought the chair for $100 on Craigslist. Since it was made by <a href="http://www.hickorychair.com">Hickory Chair</a> (which is a company we carry at <a href="http://www.designlinesltd.com">work</a>), I knew that it would be a well-made piece that will last forever. I refinished the legs myself and then had it reupholstered in an ikat fabric. Last weekend I made the brown lumbar pillow for it. I was excited to get my sewing machine out since it had been a while, and now I'm excited to do more projects!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Fabrics.jpg" /></center><br />The ikat fabric I chose reminds me so much of the fabric used on the pieces above. That fabric is by <a href="http://www.madelineweinrib.com/">Madelin Weinrib</a> and is sold for around $500 per yard! If you aren't familiar with ikat, you should check out this <a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/2008/12/trend-roundup-ikat-ikat-ikat.html">post on ikat</a> at Design*Sponge. True ikat is made by painting the threads before weaving the fabric - which creates the irregular shapes that characterize the patterns. I'm planning to make accent pillows out of the <a href="http://www.fschumacher.com/search/ProductDetail.aspx?sku=174032">floral fabric</a> to the above right.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/celerie-kemble031.jpg" /></center><br />That fabric was designed by Celerie Kemble (above) - one of my favorite interior designers. I love her style! And, as you can see in the photo above and the article below, she used the Madelin Weinrib ikat in her nursery!

The people you surround yourself with are so important, certainly they influence us, and it's amazing to have others there when you truly need them. Kyle and I have enjoyed getting to know our group - and watching it grow. But last week we had to say goodbye to a few. Hayley left us for Wilmington for her first year of college, and Phil moved up to DC for a new job in animation. (The extra sad thing about Phil leaving is that it means Katy, his fiance, will be leaving soon as well.)<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_2406b.jpg" /></center><br /><br />Kyle made banners to show our love, and we enjoyed a night of great food and great conversation.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Phil.jpg" /></center><br />Phil and Hayley - You are missed!! (FYI, that's not Hayley rolling up the banner, that's her sister Lara. Hayley is in the paint splattered shirt beside Lara in the top photo). Lara was careful to save Hayley's banner for dorm room decoration.Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-23398325617627531282009-08-17T18:02:00.003-04:002009-08-17T23:41:28.503-04:00Design Lines' new website!We've been working hard over the past few months to revamp our website at work - and it's finally finished! <a href="http://designlinesltd.blogspot.com/">The blog</a> is the next thing on the list for a makeover.

We relaxed, laid out by the pool, went shopping, and out to eat. It was great to get away for the weekend!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/Ballantyne.jpg" /></center><br />Upon arriving at the hotel, we were greeted with a surprise - my mom went to the hotel earlier that day to drop off the top layer of our wedding cake and treated us to a bottle of champagne and a bowl of fresh fruit. She is always so thoughtful!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/IMG_2362b.jpg" /></center><br />We went downtown to eat at <a href="http://www.flemingssteakhouse.com/">Flemming's</a> on Saturday and enjoyed a four-course meal! It was delicious! I don't think I've ever been so full in my life. I recommend the banana crème brûlée!<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/BrucesWedding.jpg" /></center><br />And on our actual anniversary, we traveled to High Point for Bruce & Sarah's wedding!

On the right is our latest project. We bought a chair on <a href="http://raleigh.craigslist.org/">Craigslist</a> with the idea that it would be recovered. I pulled some affordable fabric options, and we decided on the red ikat fabric at the top right - except in <a href="http://www.leeindustries.com/fabricdetail.asp?id=181086086196214235174239101203130075146210036109073183070175144120232081065043076127003153132217109171076134221042027172215182091009130066087">green</a>. I can't wait to see the result, and I'll be sure to post pictures when it's finished! It is quite funny to me though - several of our friends are against us recovering it. The chair isn't in bad shape at all, but it's just not quite my style. :) I knew it would be a great piece because it is by <a href="http://www.hickorychair.com/product_detail.aspx?i=843">Hickory Chair</a>, a company I use a lot at work. I've been to their <a href="http://designlinesltd.blogspot.com/2009/02/hickory-chair-university-laurens.html">manufacturing facilities,</a> and I know this chair will last as long as we would like to keep it!<br /><br />It's really hard to believe that our one year anniversary is coming up this weekend! We are heading to Charlotte to stay at the <a href="http://www.theballantynehotel.com/">Ballantyne Hotel</a>, where we stayed on our wedding night. Looking back to a year ago, I was miserable - I had a tear in my esophagus in the week before the wedding! It was very painful, but Kyle was great - he helped me pack up all of my stuff and moved it to our apartment! I'm so thankful for an amazing husband, and I look forward to many more years to come!<br /><br />And - we got a universal remote! Now there is <a href="http://heymckay.blogspot.com/2009/06/kyles-new-toys.html">only one remote</a> to lose!Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-478927052612374160.post-54295446154046561332009-07-15T21:07:00.002-04:002009-07-29T21:21:00.197-04:00The 4th of JulyKyle and I took a "staycation" over the 4th. Instead of going away for the weekend, we enjoyed spending time at home.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/JoelLane.jpg" /></center><br />The <a href="http://www.joellane.org/">Joel Lane House</a> is literally across the street from where we live. They were having an open house on the 4th, so we took the opportunity to check it out and learn a little bit about the history of our city and state. Joel Lane was instrumental in making Raleigh the capital city. It's crazy to think that this house was around before anything else; now it is crowded by businesses and town homes.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i374.photobucket.com/albums/oo188/bishopln/4th.jpg" /></center><br />It wouldn't be the 4th without hamburgers and hotdogs! We ventured just a bit further to get some food from <a href="http://www.chargrillusa.com/">Chargrill</a>. I like the new designs that Coke has out for the summer!Lauren McKayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03745533394561610150noreply@blogger.com0
