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 MoreFive Years Young
Last week, out of the blue, I started getting all of these emails from LinkedIn congratulating me. For what, I wondered? As it turns out, it is my ‘work anniversary.’ I started Kelly Rogers Interiors five years ago. In the beginning, I blogged – with varying degrees of success (here’s an oldie but goodie from…
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,…

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 MoreBehind the Scenes: My HGTV Magazine Photo Shoot
As some of you may already know, my home is a featured ‘House Tour’ in the December issue of HGTV Magazine. I am honestly still pinching myself that I’ve been published in a national magazine. I haven’t even been published in one of the regional New England design magazines! It was not something I expected at…

I hope all of you parents out there survived Halloween! Is it just me or is this holiday getting more and more drawn out every year? Don’t get me wrong – I do like Halloween. But as with any good holiday, I’m also a little relieved when it’s finally over. I think my little Alvin…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge Week 4: That Fabric!
Here we are, it’s week 4 of the One Room Challenge! If you’re just visiting for the first time this week, welcome and thanks! I’m on a journey with over 200 other guest participants transforming a room in six short weeks (and 20 featured design bloggers who post their updates on Wednesdays). I’ve been turning an…
Read MoreOne Room Challenge Week 3: Minor Crises and Progress Updates
Welcome to ORC Week 3! Otherwise known as the fake half-way point. Because, let’s face it, you don’t really have until November 10th to finish your room – the zhushing, styling and photography (and then waiting for said images to come back from the photographer), and the reveal blog post all need to be locked and loaded by…
Read MoreMoody Hues
Although the “bathed in white” aesthetic (as I like to call it) is still going strong, I have also noticed an emerging trend in quite the opposite direction. Rooms that envelop you with strong, deep, dark colors are providing a visual antidote to all the white-walled light-and-brightness. Yes, even black! I can almost hear painters across…
