I love a good before and after. I especially love it when it's the work of a designer in their own home, or a home designed by one designer and then redesigned by another. As you all know, I get in the mood to change things often. VERY OFTEN. Sometimes I think I'm crazy, and other times I think it's just part of the creative process. It's difficult to live with the same arrangements, the same things, the same space even if you love it, especially when your mind operates endlessly about different decor. When I don't have a client to live these ideas through, I have to experiment in my own space. 
Indeed, it seems that the home of a designer is really a creative laboratory, and I'm NOT the only one who changes things that are absolutely beautiful and perfect as they are just to get a different look going.  I've pulled a few of my favorite before and afters by designers (many in their own homes) and hope you enjoy studying the differences, some of them so minor yet so amazing, as I did. Enjoy!
