My First Place…Help!

Pezzo Bello Interiors is so thrilled with our newest project and we want to share it with each of you. Mostly because it is a familiar scenario, one that almost all of us have experienced ourselves.

Our client is a young, vibrant 25 year old female who is facing one of the most exhilarating experiences in her adult life. Yes, you guessed it; she has purchased her first home. It’s a great 25 year old ranch that just needed updating. Her excitement is contagious, her attitude is positive and her expectations are inspiring.

Since this project is still in the beginning stages we are presenting the before pictures today. However, as the weeks progress, we will have final pictures to share. This is going to be a fun one to watch!

Our first objective was to update all the walls with fantastic color! Brighten it up…make it new! All of these colors were purposely chosen to fit our client’s unique personality.

The Living Room will be Sherwin Williams Proper Grey and the ceilings a bright white. In the Kitchen, all of the wallpaper below the chair rail will be removed and replaced with the same Proper Grey that is in the living room. All walls above the chair rail in the kitchen will be in the coordinating lighter shade, Essential Grey.


The owner was concerned about the age and style of the kitchen cabinets but we reassured her that they were perfect! We fell in love with them the moment we saw them. Just a little clean up and new cabinet pulls and they will be a great focal point in her kitchen. The back splash will be updated and changed from the brick red tile to a metallic of copper, bronze or silver.


The bathroom of course is our designer Antionette’s favorite because it is going to be painted the rich purple shade of Sherwin Williams’ Clematis. The bathtub/shower, and toilet have been replaced with white fixtures. The countertop will be white marble, and just this week new ceramic tile was installed on the bathroom floor.

The master bedroom will be Sherwin Williams’ sassy shade of blue called Blue Cruise, a color that complements our homeowner the best.

The spare bedroom will be a beautiful shade of green called Rockwood Jade by Sherwin Williams.


The next phase will be window treatments throughout the home. Check in often to see the total transformation!
