Quick tips for creating the perfect bath from designer Doryn Wallach.

Renovating or making over a bathroom can be a daunting task. New York-based interior designer Doryn Wallach has some advice to help guide you through the process. Use the following tips as a guide to create the best bathing space for your needs.

Materials, textures and colors, oh my!
When it comes to choosing colors and materials, always keep in mind the room that is directly outside the bathroom. You want the bathroom to complement the space outside of it, but with a different texture or hue. Matchy-matchy isn't always the right way to go.

Define your purpose.
Consider what you will use the space for. The room's function should help you determine what style you'll choose. In a powder room, space is at a premium and its use will be fairly constant. A guest bath needs to have everything that a visitor might need. A teen bath is going to have heavy traffic and should be functional and fun. All of these factors are going to steer your design choices in a certain direction. A fabulous-looking space that is lacking function is essentially a waste of space.

Spring may be a few weeks away, but you can make it come early with some season-inspired decor.

I recently relocated from New York to Seattle. During my first week as a West Coaster, while New York got slammed by a serious snow storm, the "rainy city" had a perfect week of sunny skies and spring-like weather. That week was short-lived and the rain has returned (welcome to Seattle), but the tease of spring was enough to excite me for the beautiful days to come.

With less than a month of winter left it's time to start thinking spring -- and perhaps a spring spruce-up in the process. To get inspired, and to help you through those last dreary days, here are some sunny rooms spotted across the web:

Jill Vegas's new book can help you makeover your home in a matter of minutes.

As you're reading this, you likely have a laundry list of things to do. We live in a world of over-tasking. So, when it comes to decorating, your to-do projects often fall to the wayside.

That's where Jill Vegas comes in. An interior stager, Vegas has mastered the art of decorating in a cinch and decided to share her wisdom in her new book, Speed Decorating: A Pro Stager's Tips and Trade Secrets For A Fabulous Home In A Week or Less.

"Speed Decorating is about loving the home that you have right now," Vegas says. "Frequently clients tell me how they're waiting to do this or that because 'someday' they'll have a better or different apartment – forget about 'someday,' it's time to live in the home you have right now."

Ready to decorate? Here are some thoughts from the queen of speed style:


Q: Some people love to look at beautiful interiors but have no idea how to achieve their own -- what are some tips that can help them through the process?

A: Inspiration is where it all begins; get inspired and then take action. The introduction to my book has some great tools to help people get in touch with their inner decorator and tackle a project with confidence.

The first step is to pick a room where you want to see a difference. Step two: Make a plan. Set a date of when you want to complete the project and just do it!

Q: In your book you discuss speed-shopping tips – can you give us some of your favorite highlights?

A: Be prepared! Shop with a digital camera loaded with pictures of the room you're decorating. Bring a notebook with vital stats, such as room measurements. If you're buying something big like a sofa make sure to bring the measurements of your front door. I had a client who had to quickly sell a sofa on eBay because it wouldn't fit in the front door.





Q: What are some common decorating mistakes you see people make – and how can they be fixed?

A: They push all their furniture against the walls so there's a big hole in the center of the room. It's better to create seating areas -- group furniture together so that you can easily have conversations or set your glass on the coffee table.

Also, when there's no color; it's a mistake to decorate with just blah browns and beige. This is such a fun and easy solution: Bring on the color! You can add a burst of red tulips or buy throw pillows or splash the walls with a bold paint color!

Q: If you only have an afternoon to update your home, where should you focus your energy?

A: Focus on one place. The key is to focus on one room and get moving. If you have an afternoon, you could make a dramatic difference in the living room, for example. You could start by getting rid of any clutter that's accumulated, old magazines or things you just don't like.

From there you could make a big difference by buying a new rug or head to an art crawl and buy an amazing painting for over the sofa. If you want a new sofa, shop online to get an idea of styles (there are a lot of resources for this listed in "Places I Love" section of my book to help get you started) or go to vintage stores or the flea market and find a mid-century modern sofa and then reupholster it.

Q: You just got a call that your mother-in-law is on her way over. She'll be there in an hour – what are some quick tips to get the place in order?

A: Pick up the mess! If your place is already impeccable, run out and buy flowers. Flowers are a speed decorator's best friend -- they're fast, gorgeous and bursting with color, and they make any room feel vibrant and fresh.

Q: On a similar note: You have 30 minutes and zero budget – is it still possible to style things up?

A: I know this sounds simple, but here's the deal: Clean up! No matter how clean you are, there are scuffs all over the foyer and layers of dust lurking under the sofa. For dramatic improvement in 30 minutes, brighten up your home by taking all your light fixtures down and washing the globes, Windex the chandelier so it sparkles and replace burned out bulbs -- your place will gleam!

For a full course in quick decor, pick up a copy of Speed Decorating, which is available now at bookstores and Amazon.com.

With Valentine's Day around the corner, we discover that pink is a more versatile color than you think.

When I was younger I despised pink – perhaps in defiance of the color-gender stereotype. But as my love for design has grown, so too has my love for the once-abhorred color. I've even become that girl who convinces her boyfriend to wear it ("No babe, that shirt's not pink, it's salmon!").

In fact, if I didn't live with said boyfriend and thus have to strictly abide by the gender-neutral rules of decorating, my entire apartment would be dashed with a variety of pink hues. But in this hypothetical world, I would also have to tread lightly. Decorating with this color is a highly strategic, tricky process, because when it comes to pink there's a fine line between perfect and Pepto Bismol.

Living vicariously through ShelterPop, I decided to round up an assortment of inspiring pink rooms that master this color balance with ease while proving its versatility.

Maybe someday I'll use one of these to inspire my own makeover – I'm even working on the excuses now: "Babe, raspberry is the new red!" "Did you know that Chuck Norris' favorite color was fuchsia?" "Obviously the color is amazing, the band wasn't known as 'Blue Floyd!'"





1. Soft Pinks


Perhaps the most classic shade of pink used in decorating is a muted, creamy tone. If your style is more traditional, this is the hue for you – though it does tend to be perceived as the "most girly," so keep it in small doses if you have a gender-shared space.

Soft pink walls in a bathroom establish a Parisian romanticism. But only go this route if your fixtures match the style (i.e. If you have sleek, modern fixtures you're better suited to opt for a more modern hue in the raspberry family.) This shade might also be better for a small powder room than a large master bath.

In any room, keep other colors to a minimum. Crisp white is a great way to offset the pink and prevent the room from feeling too muted. But mixing in other color accents could easily take you from tasteful to tacky.

2. Medium Pinks

Our bedrooms are our private spaces, and thus provide the best opportunity to go a little wild with our decor personalities. Either of these palettes used in a living room might be too strong, but here they perfectly push the limits.

In the room at left, bright bubble-gum pink serves as a simple accent to modernize an otherwise cottage-country style (Imagine if that bright pink were instead a cream or pale lavender). To achieve this, select a bolder hue from your primary focal point (in this case a wallpaper pattern, though it could be a large piece of artwork or a bold-patterned comforter) and add it in solid doses in no more than two or three other areas, such as drapery panels and pillows.

The room at right could easily be debated as overkill for some people, but boho chic fanatics will love its edgy, envelope-pushing use of pink. Choose pinks in the same pigment range. For help, pick your primary color from a fan deck then stick to that page in selecting accent pinks. Then augment this range with a bold accent, like cherry red – or even aubergine or turquoise. If you have the ability to dark wash your furniture, door and flooring (as pictured) definitely do so; this look wouldn't work as well with mix-matched woods.

3. Pops of Pink


Small, but powerful doses of color can have just as much impact as painting an entire room. This is especially the case with bright pink. A simple piece of artwork or accent chair can add some much-needed oomph to an otherwise calm interior (as shown in both cases above).

Although the chandelier in the image at left is a more fixed accent, the easy DIY artwork (paint a large canvas a solid color, then cover a smaller canvas in wallpaper and attach) is a perfect way to liven your interior with a pop of pink – and an easy switch to a new color when you tire of it. The bright, coral pink can also read as more red, and thus might be an easier sell to those pink-hesitant men in your life.

At right, the serene modern living space comes to life with a pink armchair and small bouquets. One bold pop of pink with a single piece of furniture (or slipcover for the serious commitment-phobes) is a beautiful accent to soothing grays. Because this space (as well as the one at left) is a shared living area, pink works best in small doses. Of course, I wouldn't be totally against painting that back wall (at right) a vibrant fuchsia. Just a suggestion.

4. Hot Pinks: Raspberry, Fuchsia and More


Raspberry, the muted sister of fuchsia, is a soothing version of pink that serves as a sort of neutral and thus can pair with a variety of colors, depending what mood you want to evoke.

Use it to spice up your kitchen with a retro-modern vibe. Green chairs are an unexpected color pairing but work against white cabinetry and wood in this kitchen (at left). In this layout -- little wall space for art or other items of interest -- pink paint is the perfect way to add interest. Plus, it's the kitchen, so it's OK to go a little wild.

For a more simple-and-sweet look using raspberry, take a step in the right direction and paint your stairs. If you love pink, this is an ideal area to have some fun. Keep the rest of the stairwell white and without art to that the space stays serene even with the bold color choice.

To honor what we love most this holiday, ShelterPop enlisted the help of Top Ten Real Estate Deals to bring you what could very well be considered the most "romantic" homes on the real estate market (see Top Ten Romantic Homes by TopTenRealEstateDeals.com for more photos of these beauties).

The Basics: Four-story home features a formal dining room, library, music room, playroom, multiple offices, seven bedrooms, seven and a half baths and a private tennis court and patio.
Feel the Love: A curved drive leads you to the entry (and stately portico) of this 1920s Italian Renaissance estate in the Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. The home, originally built for bird scientist and poet Milton Ray, boasts postcard views that sweep past the Golden Gate Bridge to the East Bay. If talk of poetry and bird watching doesn't get you in the mood, just meander through the grand reception hall into the elegant formal rooms and admire the period features: decorative hardwood and marble floors, ornate moldings and trim, stately fireplaces, winding marble staircase, towering ceilings and leaded glass windows.


2. 22 East 71st Street, New York, NY

Feel the Love: Alone for Valentine's Day? How about a date with a wool baron? In 1922 Julius Forstmann, a prominent German merchant and (you guessed it) wool baron, commissioned C.P.H. Gilbert (a renowned architect at the time) to design this neo-Italian Renaissance mansion on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. It comes complete with a dramatic foyer, private garden, jaw-dropping reception hall, a spectacular sweeping staircase, enormous skylight, hand-carved moldings and grand-scaled rooms that features original detailing. Did we mention it's more than 21,000 square feet? Every New Yorker just swooned.

It's said that the romantic poet would walk from Harvard University across the Cambridge Bridge (eventually renamed the Longfellow Bridge) to visit his future wife, Fanny Appleton, at this residence, which was inducted into the National Registry of Historical Places in 1978. Perhaps Longfellow's spirit will inspire you to pen a sonnet of your own.

This Romanesque Revival mansion was built by William Perry Brown in 1905 as a wedding present for his new wife, Marguerite Braughn Brown. The newlywed -- who had just cornered the cotton market, quadrupling the price of cotton -- spared nothing on this New Orleans mansion for his new bride: exquisite blue sandstone exterior, tile roof, ornate plaster detailing throughout, movie-star worthy pool and private gated grounds. The massive stained glass over the grand stair landing is replete with daisies, also known as French Marguerites, as a symbol of his love for Marguerite.

9. 478 Saint Paul Street, Denver, Colorado

Stroll downstairs to share a 20-minute steam soak and then slide into the hot tub. Cool off with a dozen laps in the indoor pool and shower in the teak-floored spa shower. Cuddle up in the unique woven-vines ''space hog'' chair in the spa living room. Top it off with his-and-her massages on the heated table in the massage room.

For an extra dose of romance, have a moonlit picnic on your back lawn and star gaze with your date.

This design classic has been holding on as a favorite for centuries (literally), but how do you make it fit into your modern interior?

If you've read a single design magazine or (more importantly) are a devoted reader of ShelterPop, chances are you've seen a Chesterfield. If you're a design addict, chances are you've dreamed of owning one (or already do).

The appeal of this iconic sofa has been holding strong since its invention in 1900. (See our article on the history of the Chesterfield for more juicy details.)

And that got us to wondering: In a world where trends quickly come and go, and styles so easily become outdated, how does one sofa stand alone against the decor test of time? And how can such a traditional, essentially "antique" piece fit so seamlessly into modern interiors?

White leather immediately lends a modern air to the Chesterfield. And in this room, what could easily become a clashing addition somehow works with the casual, laid-back style of the space. A white slipcover on the loveseat unites the seating group. Casually tossing mix-matched throw pillows takes the formality of the Chesterfield down a few notches. Call it casual elegance, perhaps?

You could assume that a black leather Chesterfield likely had its original use in a gentleman's smoking lounge. But surprisingly it's right at home in a variety of interior styles, even those with a more feminine feel. In this space, the Chesterfield definitely stands out as the design centerpiece but it's the room's accents that create the cohesive style. Punchy patterned pillows, mix-matched art and a couple touches of vintage flair somehow unified look in a seemingly disjointed space.



Blue and white is such a classic color combination, but this room is anything but traditional. The crisp white Chesterfield pops against dramatic deep blue. The blue is so dark it almost appears to be a monochromatic color palette, establishing a chic modern vibe. Toss an assortment of eclectic pattern throw pillows across the sofa to establish more interest in the simple palette.

Old Hollywood comes back to life in home accents.

When I was a kid, a ticket to my small-town movie theater cost $3 – and we'd sneak in our own snacks and soda because the tickets were "so expensive."

Ah, the good old days.

Perhaps it's this sort of nostalgia that inspired Ballard Designs' assortment of vintage theater-themed décor. I especially love their limited edition Hollywood pillows, so I scoured around for other vintage film paraphernalia -- and I found a few more items at one of my favorite kitschy midcentury-accessories stores, RetroPlanet.

Perhaps these products are a hint of a larger trend to come? I can only hope. But in the meantime, the following preview of products has been approved for all audiences by the Motion Picture Association of America. (OK, maybe not.)

The Source
Z Gallerie

The Goods
I've been doing market work (shopping for a living) for nearly five years. And, admittedly, there are times when I get a bit lazy and repeatedly use the same source for one project (and often many projects in a row). But when that source consistently has a fabulous assortment of stylish and affordable products, it's hard to deny the return visits.

If you've yet to visit Z Gallerie, I suggest you take a look at their store locator immediately. With 54 stores in 18 states, Z Gallerie has approximately 1,800 square feet of style for every room in your home. Large-scale furniture, lighting, tabletop, artwork, bedding – the list goes on. The best part? You know how when you visit other chain home stores (Think: Pottery Barn, IKEA and Crate & Barrel), everything looks like it came from that store? That's never the case here. Whether your style is Asian-modern, boho-chic or leans toward the classic transitional, you'll find items to fit your niche.



The Secret
Although Z Gallerie has a sort-of big-box vibe (huge store full of affordable products), it remains a privately owned company. Started in 1979 by brothers-sister team Joe Zeiden, Carole Malfatti and Mike Zeiden, Z Gallerie has grown from a small poster shop (the trio would frame posters in their parents' garage at night) to a full-fledged (yet still family-run) home goods franchise that remains dedicated to providing us with attainable style. Joe, Carole and Mike, my bank account thanks you.

Things to Know
Sadly, a Z Gallerie store can't be found in every state, but every state can have a shopping heyday via their online store, which also happens to keep an updated page of their recently marked down items for extra-budget-friendly shopping. Sure, you'll incur some minimal shipping charges -- but it's a small price to pay for what will undoubtedly become your go-to source for incredibly chic, affordable home decor.

Inside tip for you Southern Californians: Z Gallerie's outlet store is located in Gardena and has a new assortment of fabulous products coming in daily. That's right: daily. Think of it as a design addict's personal dealer.

Out of all the home accessories in all the land, there is one that I think is a must-have for every home: the wine rack. Extreme oenophiles scoff at the idea of a counter-top wine rack -- Wines should be kept at a controlled, perfect temperature, aged for a set period of time.

But for the average consumer, the wine rack is a handy tool to keep your delicious bottled beverages within arms' reach. For us, the bottles will be corked within a matter of weeks, and on the superficial side, they're the perfect kitchen accent.

Colorful, modern kitchen? Perhaps the Puzzle Wine Rack or Kartell's Infinity racks are right for you. Sleek, stainless steel appliances? CB2's Galvanized 12 Bottle Wine Rack would be a perfect fit. Check out the affordable wine rack options below. They're sure to make even the most severe oenophiles want to lighten up just a bit.
