Edmonton Interior Decorator | Designer Spotlight | Mary McDonald

Photobucket

If you've ever watched the over-the-top Bravo series Million Dollar Decorators, you're familiar with the dynamo that is Mary McDonald. She's a very memorable character with equally memorable style. If I were to compare my design esthetic to anyone's, it would be Mary McDonald's. We share a fondness for: bold patterns, pops of colour, liberal use of black and white, combining different furniture styles, symmetry and elegance.

Take note of her signature touches including: chevron stripes, Greek key pattern, bolster pillows, Chinoiserie and glints of gold.














If this post left you wanting more, pick up one of Mary's most recent books.

Note: the soothing colour palette; judicious use of pattern; excellent size and placement of furniture; coordinated window treatments; appropriate use of materials; and tasteful finishing touches.

There's things we can do on our own, and then there's times we must admit that we need professional help. However, not everyone is ready to admit they need assistance. Below is a frightful collection of design disasters. I warn you, what you are about to witness is not pretty...

















Had these homeowners called Rachellabelle Interiors, these decorating tragedies could have been avoided. Are you ready for professional help?
