Designer Spotlight

Betsy Burnham

It is no mystery to those have read or followed my blog that one of my favorite interior designers is LA based designer Betsy Burnham, seeing that I just featured some of her rooms last week. Today receiving my blog updates it seems that the ever so stylish Kelly from High Street Market worked for Mrs. Burnham before she relocated to the East Coast with her husband. Makes perfect sense, I can see the influence in the items she features in her shop on Etsy. Kelly posted that Decor Demon recently wrote an article along with pictures detailing the new rooms of Burnham's 2 teenage children Carson and Will which are eclectic, fun, creative!

When Betsy Burnham first came on my radar it was the 2005 issue of Instyle Home and her personal residence was featured. I was moving into a new house and desperately searching for a color for our family room. I had been through stacks of magazines with no inspiration in site, when the mailman came and wham, I matched the color below to Benjamin Moore's "pirate's chest". 

Leopard lamp shades, python covered chairs and blue porcelain china
