Design Dilemma | Sarah Eisler Great Room

Last month I started this new blog/YouTube series with Coby O’Sullivan’s sitting room, and this month I took on Sarah Eisler‘s great room! I’ve followed Sarah on Instagram for awhile now, being a equestrian lover and her being in the horse world. So when I saw her design dilemma submission come through, I knew I wanted to help a fellow horse-lover out 🙂 Sarah moved into her new home not too long ago and needed some help with her combined living and dining room. AND she needed it all on a pretty tight budget…for around $3,000. So I put together a design for her that covers the main pieces that she’ll need to outfit the space and she can fill it all in with accessories as needed. Take a look and let me know what you think!

I have to admit it was hard furnishing what was basically a dining room AND a living room for $3,000. So I decided to show you what $5,300 will get you 😉 Links to the products are above!

Here is Sarah’s before picture of the room. This is the sale listing photo, so not her furniture. She’s also painted it Sherwin Williams Tree Swallow and Requisite Grey.

And the inspiration images that Sarah gave me were all client work that I did in the past! You can check them out here: Naomi’s living room, Julie’s dining room, Dani’s living/dining room and Anne’s dining room.

This mid century indigo boho dining room by Lauren Nelson Design gets recreated for less by copycatchic luxe living for less budget home decor and design

TOTAL | $3,154*

This amazing dining room by Lauren Nelson Design was a close second in a recent room redo vote, so we had to give it the spotlight this week! Featuring standout kaleidoscopic wallpaper, inky upholstered chairs, and a massive concrete-topped table, this room is just calling for a rousing dinner party that goes into the wee hours. The contemporary chandelier and abstract art work well with the mid-century walnut pieces, and the simple accessories allow the wall covering to really shine. I’d love to know your thoughts on wallpapering a grand space like this—would you dare?

Our latest room redo vote winner comes from Flip & Style and is the epitome of Scandi-chic. Clean lines, neutral palette, lots of natural light—this modern dining space is a thing of beauty. The black frames add a little edge, while the crystals on the chandelier give off a glamorous vibe in this otherwise sleek space. It’s easy to imagine this room at night with casual white china, linen napkins, and lots of candlelight—how dreamy!

Copy Cat Chic Room Redo | Sleek Coastal Dining Space

I fell in love with this dining space on My Domaine before realizing it’s actually an office! The designers behind Studio Life.Style have clearly created a multi-functional space at their LA firm that has a look you can still bring home today. The black accents temper the white table and walls perfectly, and I love how the large-scale beach artwork softens up this sleek space with a bit of color. You really can’t go wrong with wishbone chairs and a tulip table—the trick is finding these design icons at affordable prices! P.S. Don’t miss the deal on that floor lamp, which is a spitting image for a pricy Serge Mouille original.
