OH. EM. GEE. Seriously, jaw dropped when I saw Naomi’s apartment on Design Sponge yesterday. Ya see, Niomi commissioned a painting from me last year, back when I was 9 months pregnant- hers may have been the last piece I did before the baby was born!

Anyway, her place is finally all pulled together and magazine worthy and she emailed me to tell me about the house tour and that my work would be posted! How awesome of her.

Seriously my dear Niomi, you did an AMAZING job. Colorful, but just the perfect amount. DIY’ed but not crafty.Inexpensive, but not cheap. My congrats to you!

Here it is! The custom piece I made for Niomi last year:

( Just so you know: It took like 4-5 failed 9 month pregnant frenzied painting on the floor attempts to finally produce this piece!)

Niomi and her dad are a father-daughter team that design and renovate houses! Her apartment was done on the super-cheap, and the house tour, as well as her blog, are chock full of amazing ikea hacks, design scores and DIY ideas.
