Olioboard on the Nate Berkus Show






Olioboard is the digital version of saving all of your room ideas- swatches of fabric, images of furniture and flooring.  


You can browse real products, upload pictures of your own items or space and create a digital moodboard to share.  It can be e-mailed and easily showcased on a website or facebook and Twitter.  Changes can be easily made too.  Prices are available for items, which helps designers keep track of cost and stick to a budget.  The items on Olioboard are from real retailers and each item can take you directly to the store for purchase.

Join Sheilah MacSporran and Cole Mackin to see what they've created.  It is super fun and a great help to interior designers.  Olioboard also has a fan room page on Facebook and a fan Twitter page.  Olioboard fans are helpful, friendly and fun.  It is a great way to meet people who share in interior design as work or hobby, exchange ideas and take part in some of the sponsored contests.

Here are some of my more recent Olioboards:

This board is my entry for the West Elm sponsored contest.  I tried to create a living room with a combination of warm tones, contemporary and traditional elements and a mix of pattern and material.


This was one of my Zatista art contest entries.  Here, I wanted the art to be the highlight of the room and I wanted to keep a contemporary and monochromatic look in keeping with the art.


This is another board from the Zatista art contest.


This board was for a cruise ship room contest.











Olioboard Contests


Got this idea from HGVT Design Star-

Rock n' Roll and Glam Room
Create a room fit for a married couple in their 30s. The space should be suited for a rock star man and a glamourous model woman. The space can be any room of the house but must appeal to both the rock star and the glam queen by incorporating some of each in a way that does not offend the other. Inspiration comes from HGTV Design Star.

Decor Using Trunks


I love the way people have made their LV into furniture and trunks in general are cool.
The first date I had with my husband was spent having drinks at a local restaurant and the table was a trunk.  I loved it!
Here are some of my favorites.
