When An Artist Decorates My House For The Holidays

November 17, 2022
  • Share

Finding the perfect piece of art can be difficult, but a custom piece will make any wall stand out. Luckily, I’m friends with a very talented artist, Sarah Robarts. I was looking for something modern that still complements my COCOCOZY style. When I came across Sarah’s acrylic murals and artwork I knew I needed a piece for my dining area. There was an empty wall that needed something to give it a “wow” factor. Thanks to Sarah, now I feel like the room is complete. Learn more about Sarah’s artwork and her career.

Sarah takes recycled surfboards that she finds and creates beautiful murals. Here is a surfboard featured in another client’s home.

My friend Sarah is the president and founder of Ballantines PR, a successful and award-winning public relations firm. After arriving in LA in 1999, she fell in love with Palm Springs and decided to make the move from London to Los Angeles. Her first project was purchasing a run-down Palm Springs hotel and renovating it into a fabulous getaway. Due to the success of that project, her career in publicity and hospitality organically aligned.

However, her passion for art and painting began with her mom who is also a successful painter. It was a challenge to find a gallery that would display her work. So she figured why not combine her passion for public relations and art?  Sarah created a studio space in her home for when inspiration strikes. She also uses it as a form of therapy. Her artwork has been featured in galleries and exhibitions in Los Angeles. Her goal for the next chapter in her life is to focus more on her art career.

A closer look at my holiday table featuring my artwork by Sarah Robarts.

I fell so in love with her work and was lucky enough to be gifted one of her pieces for my home.She said pick anything you like and I immediately picked that piece and she brought it to my house for me 5 years ago. You may have seen it on Instagram and Facebook over time, but I wanted to highlight her work. Now that the holidays are around the corner, I thought it was a great way to inspire you all. Custom pieces are great gift ideas for someone special in your life.

This is that time I was invited to take a privateThis is that time I was invited to take a private tour of a spectacular Paris apartment right on the Seine in the 7th arrondissement. Fabulously furnished by @hugobesnier_ . What a fun morning visit I had just enjoying the decor and design.

Life doesn’t always look the way we imagined it woLife doesn’t always look the way we imagined it would.
There will be seasons when everything seems to be falling into place, and seasons when we’re simply trying to find our footing again.
Both matter.
You don’t have to rush through the hard seasons or feel behind because you’re not where you thought you’d be.
Give yourself permission to grow at your own pace. What’s happening beneath the surface matters too.
Trust the process. Trust your timing. Keep going. ✨

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎

The right chandelier doesn’t just light a room, it becomes the room. Scale, material, placement. When it’s done right, everything else arranges itself around it.
Save this for your next lighting inspo and follow for more. 🖤

Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive.Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive. 🌸
One thing I’ve learned is that every outdoor space needs a focal point. It gives your eye a place to land and makes the whole space feel more intentional.
In this courtyard, the bougainvillea naturally becomes that focal point, adding color, height, and movement without overwhelming the space.
If you’re designing your own patio or garden, start with one standout feature, then let everything else support it.
Save this tip for your next outdoor project. ✨
