    I told the homeowner this is my favorite wallpaper of all time. It gives her daughter's room a timeless, classic feel while still keeping it fun and playful.

    Built a custom 9.2.4 Dolby Atmos surround sound system from the ground up, including a 115-inch Samsung TV, custom built-in speakers, dual subwoofers, and a professionally integrated media wall.

    That wallpaper looks incredible! 👏 It really does have a timeless feel while still being fun and perfect for a kid's room. Thanks for sharing your work with the Community, @Juliano_50.

    Thanks for tagging me @DustiO . I have had several decluttering projects that I have been working on over the past month and so they are all still in progress so I don't have the big "before and after" transformations to show off yet but I am especially happy with what I accomplished in 1 day with a woman this past week. She moved from the city to the mountains last October and had never unpacked most of her stuff. Unfortunately she started pulling things out of some boxes and bins but left everything in giant piles everywhere. And she has a very random assortment of furniture that she doesn't want to replace due to financial constraints to the place she is renting is quite the hodge podge but the goal to get her kitchen finally set up was completed among other things and while you can't see in the cabinets, they are all very nicely organized. I am not due to go back until August which is always a concern that things will get worse again before I've had a chance to really set up systems but she is going to be away most of the time so fingers crossed she can keep it somewhat under control.

    BTW…the table actually got moved to the area of her space in the living room that made more sense for it to be there and she is getting a shelving unit for the kitchen to act as a pantry for food. There were subtle changes I made to the items on her counter that made a lot more sense like moving the microwave to the opposite end of the counter and facing out. These small changes often amaze clients because they simply couldn't "see" anything anymore. I walk in with fresh eyes and no emotional attachment but, most importantly, zero judgement!
