Did you know that Ballard Design has a site called Style Studio which has decorating dilemmas and solutions, how to’s, lots of inspiration and featured designers?
Have you ever wondered who creates all those beautiful rooms you see in the Ballard Designs catalog each month? Wouldn’t that be the best job? You’ll find that there too.
Along with award winning designer Susan Kaslar who decorates an entire house just for Ballard with a House Beautiful interview. So many images of gorgeous rooms for inspiration. I love all of the rooms but this one is my favorite. We have enough room to have an eat-in-kitchen so someday, this will be my inspiration:
There is also a section where you can see Ballard products in customers’ homes. And guess what? I submitted mine and…
“Pruvost Plaque” by Roeshel
Roeshel has our Pruvost Plaque framing her French doors. An unexpected hanging place makes the Pruvost Plaque come alive, so naturally, we love her ingenuity!
You can also enter to win a room styled by Susan Kaslar! Details here.
The How-To Section has some tips for our favorite topic – DIY!

I think it’s an interesting and helpful site full of helpful decorating tips and beautiful inspiration. Have you seen it? What do you think?
Just for fun…if you could have anything you wanted from Ballard Designs, free-of-charge what would you choose? I daydream all the time, so I already know I’d choose this and since we’re dreaming, I’ll take 2 sets of those with a side of these.
Ps. This isn’t an advertisement! I did not get paid for this post. No specials, no discounts, no sponsorship or twisting my arm. I just wanted to share Style Studio with you.
Hi Roeshel. Hope you are doing well. I love that site. I would choose the Amalfi dining set with umbrella. I am thinking about a new set for the back patio. I love the picture of the curtains with the plaque. That looks great. Have a wonderful day!
I have loved Ballard for as long as I can remember ! It's hard to find something I don't like.
Today is the last day of my dwell studio giveaway, go enter !
I love the Style Studio. I've never thought to submit a picture but I have purchased a number of things from Ballard, including fabric for my dining room chairs.
Yowsers! Dang, girl, you are all over the place…way to go! The plaque looks so good nestled up there – love how your living room turned out:)
That first photo spoke to me. So beautiful. I love how they used black as a backdrop for the white items in the wall grouping.
Thanks for sharing a new site. I love it! I will now be scouring it for interesting tips and ideas.
That's awesome! I didn't know they did a home feature section. I'll have to check it out next time. On the other hand. I loved that first photo when I saw it, and my Husband said…who needs that many cake stands? I have 4 at the moment.
Good for you, Roeshel! That's a fabulous shot of your room, too!
Roeshel, that is great. I buy from Ballard's quite a bit. Mostly my monogrammed pillows. They have great prices on those. The monogramming is free. I looked at that site, but did not see where you can submit a picture. Can you tell me where to look? I appreciate it. You have the plaque I want. I love that. I like the fact that they came out with a smaller one.
Hallo, Sweden here….
I must tell you, that I love your virtual & image blog!! Amazing mix of pic's & so much inspiration!

Gosh – more stuff to fall in love with. Thank you for sharing this! Congratulations on being featured, too!
I have always wanted to order from Ballard, but didn't know anyone who had – they have a rug with a french poem that makes my heart sing – I am so glad to see so many positive comments about them. Thanks so much for sharing! The Pruvost Plaque looks fantastic above your doors!
LOVE that room! Ooooh… I have windows on every available wall in my dining room so no room for a large shelf like that, but I do have a beautiful corner cabinet I've been struggling with lately… I love the idea of filling it with milk glass + other white dishes… thanks for the inspiration!
