Project Reveal: Lexington Green
I am just returned from some time away with family in York Harbor, Maine, where we travel each July 4th week. I was able to keep work to a minimum, and I made the decision to push that reset button down a little further and also take the week off from blogging. Now I’m back…
Read MoreBefore & After: “The Yes Chair” for IFDA Take a Seat
It killed me to miss my Tuesday blog post last week. So much going on – all good stuff though, so no complaining here! One of those things was the kickoff of IFDA New England Take a Seat; for which I have created a chair. Area designers have concocted creative chairs (23 of them!) that…
Read MoreDay 1: Project 1896 (Our Home Renovation)
It’s been a weird, wild, and wonderful (in a weird way) day. I am posting much later on Tuesdays than typical – I’m lucky to get one out at all. So I’ll make this quick… I’ve spent a lot of time decorating my house, which was built in 1896 (hence #KRIProject1896), and making the rooms…
Read MoreRoom Reveal: A Colorful Living Room Reboot with Global Influences
I am excited to share a project we recently completed for a wonderful couple in Needham. They had settled in nicely to their light-filled 1990’s contemporary colonial home, but wanted to make their living room more ‘grown-up’ and suitable for both entertaining, and quiet time with their three young children. Unsure what to do with the space,…
Read MoreBefore & After: Mother-in-Law Bedroom at the Junior League of Boston 2016 Show House
Sometimes when I first walk through a new client’s home for the first time, I kind of wonder “why am I here? This looks perfectly lovely.” Usually when we dig into things, there is a good reason why I’m there, as there is a particular problem to address, and a look and feeling they would like to…
Read MoreRoom Reveal: A Restful Bedroom for (Brand) New Parents
I recently had the opportunity to work with a great couple who I learned (after our first meeting!) was expecting their first child – a boy. I helped with a few decisions for the nursery and other areas, but mostly my focus was decorating their master bedroom in a new construction home in Wellesley. They…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge Week 6: Landing Reveal
The day is finally here – it’s time for all the One Room Challenge participants, including myself, to unveil their 6-week room transformations to the world. A little intro is in order, since many of you are probably visiting for the first time (hi there!). I’m Kelly Rogers of Kelly Rogers Interiors, and this is my…
Read MoreAwww Honey, You Blogged!
I truly cannot believe I haven’t published a blog post since March! How neglectful of me. Well, all of that is about to change. I’m getting my act together and finally publishing on a schedule, starting now. More on that later… So what have I been up to? Well, work. I’m sure you’ve heard it before…
Read MoreJunior League of Boston 2016 Decorators’ Show House: Scheming and Planning
It’s official – the Junior League of Boston Decorators’ Show House is back, after a 3+ year hiatus, for its 45th anniversary year. I got wind of the designer preview days back in December, and decided to check out the house on a lark. The show house is again taking place in Newton, in the…
Read MoreProject Reveal: Brown Moves Down, A Home Lights Up
This past summer, a new client and her husband hired me to redecorate their family room and the adjacent eat-in kitchen. Their home is gorgeous – set back on a hill surrounded by mature trees, and renovated and expanded a few years ago. One of the big changes was the addition of a gracious family room,…
