Benches – “Market Finds” Find the Right Homes

Often at market we find interesting new products that we are eager to share with our clients and followers on our blog. Have you ever wondered how these products which inspired us in the showroom end up in our design projects?  Well, here are few of our favorite benches – from “Market Finds” to “At Home” in our client’s houses.

Refresh It!

Many of our clients have wonderful furniture, whether they have acquired it from family, or from former work with Pulliam Morris. After ten or more years of loving and using their furniture, it sometimes needs to be refreshed. Such was the case with this couple’s den in the Midlands of South Carolina.

A new sofa was ordered, for the old one was lovingly worn. We selected a Vanguard sofa with a high back and decorative trim braid to be the hub of this family’s gathering space.

A Hidden Columbia Treasure

A friend of mine, Jane Suggs, asked me to help with a volunteer project this spring on behalf of her garden club.  Little did I know, I would see a hidden treasure in the middle of my city that I didn’t know existed!

She took me to a small garden next to the Governor’s Mansion, part of the original Boylston gardens.  There stood a small octagonal garden house which sorely needed some refurbishing.  We made a plan and then started calling in favors from some artisans that we both knew.  From Blythewood Plaster Company, Charles Stevens and family, Wilkes Ironworks, Real Value Stone to our Pulliam Morris team, we pulled together a fresh look for the interior of this charming building.

Many brides use this garden for their weddings, and this space gives them a place to go before the ceremony. Ride by and take a look!  Its on the corner of Lincoln and Calhoun streets and is in honor of our military veterans. A very special spot!
