Domestic Bliss in Brooklyn
18 Nov
I discovered this very respectable renovation last week thanks to Apartment Therapy. It’s the renovation of a Brooklyn limestone.
Stefanie didn’t skimp on the pictorial documentation of the project and I love that. She captured every corner including the wall outlets and I couldn’t thank her more. My opinion–thats how a renovation project should be shared online no matter how boring it might be to some, there’s someone out there who wants to know about those details.
To see the total renovation check out Stefanie’s blog a brooklyn limestone and visit her flickr site.

Stefanie’s blog doesn’t end with the renovation. She is a very creative person throwing parties, repurposing furniture and flea market finds and taking great pictures. I know Halloween is gone and we’re in the midst of being force fed everything holiday but I couldn’t resist pointing out Stefanie’s very cool Halloween stoop party.
I love the Sweeney Todd Halloween costumes, not sure if that was on purpose.

Wow!

Love the detail.
What a transformation! Very cool.
Does anyone know where those bar stools are from?
Thanks so much for reading.
The stools are from Lyon – I spray painted them a glossy aqua – but they come in a very nice gray.
beautiful.
thanks so much for sharing! I love all things found, recycled and given a new life ~ very creative, indeed! love it!
