When this client called and told me she was a cookie maker, and needed a landing spot for all things sugar, I was in. But only if she would let me taste test the merchandise, right? I mean, I can’t really design a room for cookies unless I know what they taste like. That only makes sense.
Highlights in decor:
-The homeowner really likes pink so we used a velvet pink office chair and a striped pink and white carpet in this room. There is also a shade of pink in the geometric patterned rug. By the way, geometric patterns are
on trend!
-The wall gallery displays evidence that a baker is using this space! The bakery sign is bold and
farmhouse.
-Across from the bakery sign are peg boards that hold cookie cutters. These look cute on the wall, but also provide storage and easy access.
-The white sleek desk looks great with the gray walls and pink accents in this room. It has a cute striped holder that is normally used for pens, pencils and scissors, but this room called for whisks and spoons.
-The open shelves above the desk are both decorative and useful for storage. I placed a few jars to hold supplies. I also added additional storage by placing a small black cabinet that was perfect for this small angular space.
-Speaking of angular, this space has a unique layout. I had to get creative when deciding on placement and furniture. Notice the white wooden topped table. We placed it at an angle to provide optimum space for this room.
-My favorite decorative item in this room is the black and white awning above the window. This awning is definitely unique. Normally, awnings are placed on the outside of the house above a window, not inside. Since this baker wanted a room that looked like a bakery I knew I had to add this awning to the inside of this room. It gives a whimsical look to this baker’s craft room.
Doesn’t this make you want a cookie? I do! But maybe that’s because I always want a cookie.
