Check out these recent ‘before and after’ facelifts from Marroquin Custom Upholstery!
Marroquin’s work is second to none. They produced a beautiful custom-made headboard for me that I love! Give them a call if you have a tired piece of furniture that “needs a little work”!

Here’s your chance to step inside some of Dallas most beautiful modern homes!
On Saturday, January 28, 2012, the first ever Dallas Modern Home Tour will take place. Nearly ten architecturally progressive and contemporary homes in central Dallas will open their doors from 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM. The self-guided driving tour will feature innovative homes that exemplify modern living, addressing issues from sustainability to ergonomics.
Discover how homes are pushing the boundaries of design by incorporating recycled materials, rainwater collection systems and natural ventilation while maintaining the clean lines, simple shapes and lightness associated with the Modern architecture movement.
Ingrid Spencer, former managing editor and current contributing editor for Architectural Record magazine in New York City, curated the homes for the Dallas Modern Home Tour. Find the list of homes here.
Tickets are $25 in advance and can be purchased here and picked up at designated will call locations. Tickets will also be available at select properties for $30 the day of the tour.
I have some exciting news to share! I will be participating in the latest temporary venue at Dallas Market Center this weekend with three of my most creative friends…Dana Pugh (Tattered Style), Gloria Burson (A Modern Glo) and Lisa Johnson (Cut and Paste). This creative temp show is called Vintage Home FINDS and you don’t want to miss what we have in store for you!
We will be showing under the name of my vintage line’s name, Stash {vintage finds} and you’ll find us in the North Hall, along with other vintage dealers and Trailer Cakes in their vintage airstream! We hope to provide interesting industrial pieces perfect for you to use as display in your store, as well as art to resale. We’ll be available to help you come up with one-of-a-kind display and styling to give your space a facelift for the new year! If a personal consultation is what you need, just ask, and we can arrange a visit to your retail space.
To make FINDS even more fun, all buyers are invited to participate in the “On The Road To FINDS Giveaway”! Participants can pick up FINDS “Road Maps” at information booths, Red Rooms and registrations areas to start on their journey though the Temp Show. To qualify, buyers must visit three different FINDS locations (one must be FINDS in Market Hall) and drop their completed forms at a FINDS information booth for a chance to win great prizes. Highlights of prizes include: a Stella Scooter; Kindle Fire Full Color 7” Multi-touch Display with Wi-Fi; Bose QuietComfort® 15 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones; Garmin 4.3” Portable GPS Navigator with lifetime map & traffic updates; Flip Video Camera; Sofia Cashmere Travel Set; Gift Certificate towards a luxury luggage set; Agloves, mobile device friendly gloves; and a “Build Your Own Road trip” including rental car, gas, restaurant gift certificates, and hotel expenses.
We can’t wait to share our finds with you! Please share this exciting information with your friends that have a retail store and may be coming to market this weekend! (Talk them into bringing you with them!)
We have your shopping bags ready to be packed with ‘Stash’!
Some of our favorite friends will be part of FINDS too! Bud Royer is bringing his pies, candles and latest hit, Royers recipe card box! Would this collection of over 100 of the cafe’s recipes make a nice addition to your inventory?
Our friends from Dwell With Dignity will camp out right next door to us! They’ll have a space full of donated goods that will be professionally styled much like we saw at last year’s Thrift Studio!
Will we see you there?
I’m delighted to introduce you to the amazing designs of Casa Cole, a one-stop shop for interior accessories. Their hand-picked items are selected by an interior designer that is passionate about sharing high-end designer level product with every day customers.
Their selection of mirrors is excellent! I love the shape of these mirrors that they recently placed in this beautiful bathroom designed by Design Studio 2010. The chandelier is also a Casa Cole product!
If you have an older bathroom that needs a facelift, getting rid of the wall mirror, replacing it with individual mirrors above the sinks and adding a beautiful chandelier is such an easy way to update the look. Find this mirror here and see their full selection of mirrors here.
Now is the perfect time to freshen up your interior because Casa Cole is offering The Hidden List readers a 15% discount off of any items on their site through the end of February! Simply use coupon code: HL15 Thanks, Casa Cole!!
What room in your home needs an update? Let me know, so I can share a few tips on updating your specific space!
You don’t have to spend an arm and a leg at an office supply or storage store in order to mark off the “Get Organized” line on your resolution list! Look around your home, or local thrift store, and get creative!
Keep a decorative bowl by the door and establish the habit of dropping your keys there as soon as you walk in. You’ll never lose your keys in your house again! I also love to use them in a shelf in my closet as a pretty way to store my jewelry…
Glass containers also make a pretty jewelry display…

What in the world would we do without ziploc bags? I use them for everything! They’re a must for keeping small toys or game pieces together.

Take a look inside this medicine cabinet! I love the way they used the magnetic containers for rubber bands and hair pins…

These vintage suitcases are prefect for storing old memorabilia and makes an interesting vignette.

Hi everyone! I’m Jessica with Arcadian Lighting, a website and blog where I get to write about beautiful lighting fixtures and inspiring interior designs. I’m excited to be guest posting for Kelley today because The Hidden List is such a wonderful blog for stylish, inspiring things. I knew this was the place to share a few metropolitan chic interiors. Enjoy!
Is there anything more chic than an expansive room with floor-to-ceiling windows, stone columns and funky furniture? It’s all the more sophisticated when you know that Paris is just outside.
Crisp white walls and dining chairs look extra chic against the black accents in this room. The abstract artwork and blue porcelain lamps really stand out as well.
This chic Park Avenue apartment is full of elegant antiques and eclectic artwork. The modern furniture is a nice contrast to the ornate décor.
I love the mix of antique velvet upholstered furniture in powder blue with the aged damask wallpaper in this living room. A modern abstract painting and white floor lamp help update the scene.
The warm tones in this Downtown Portland loft are perfect for creating a chic, comfortable home. A stunning array of lights keeps the space well-lit and cozy. I especially love the bare bulb pendant light at the center of the room.
The stunning, rich blue cabinets in this chic London flat are a daring choice, but it works beautifully. Black countertops, lighting and dining table allow the bright blue to take center stage.
The heavy, black wall color in this apartment in Berlin is surprisingly elegant thanks to the chic white bedding and nightstand.
A complete contrast to the last bedroom, this one goes for all-white color palette with grey and black accents. The result is a calm, yet utterly chic escape from the bustling streets of London outside. Images 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8
What do you think of Metropolitan inspired interiors? They’re all about modern designs and crisp lines. Don’t forget to check out Arcadian Lighting for fresh inspiration every day!
I define my style as somewhere between a ‘bad-ass’ motorcycle chick and a little vintage-laced sweet girl… I think that’s why I love these adorable boots that are a great mix of both worlds…

Do you find yourself somewhere in the middle when it comes to fashion and design? We live in a time where it’s cool to ‘mix and match’ as we please and live in an environment that is pleasing to our eye…no rules! I love it! I went to my Pinterest boards to reflect on the images that I have tagged as ‘my style’ and found that I really like to mix it up. Here’s what I found…
Farm table with tufted chairs…

Louis-style furniture with cow hides and boho bedding…
