Here's a News Article on our Room Decor in the Junior League House


On the second floor is the Kittinger Galleries master bedroom designed by Karen Bialkowski. One of the most unique decorating features of this room is that the king size tufted bed is in the center of the room, making it the room's focal point. This works very well because the high headboard of the bed gives a discreet sense of privacy to the door less dressing area nook behind it. The bed is adorned with silk linens and above it is an ornate gold-leafed lighting fixture. The room is graced with beautiful Kittinger furniture and would be very inviting at the end of a long day. There is still the original intercom system in the corner of the room where, one can imagine, owners would call down to the kitchen for their morning coffee and breakfast.


The dressing room nook was designed by the Villa Maria College Interior Design Program. Constance Strothers, one of the members of the Villa College team, described the Show House decorating experience as, "extremely exciting and challenging." In this way, the Junior League allows students to experience the real world of interior design. The vintage clothing hanging in the dressing room was provided by Allita Lee from her vintage clothing salon, Apple's Haberdashery.
