Inspired by ... Jimmy Stanton

Jimmy Stanton is a talented interior designer and the owner of Stanton Home Furnishings with two locations in Atlanta. Stanton is everywhere you look these days... designing for show homes in Atlanta, assisting design clients, and running his successful furniture and design accessory business. All you have to do is open a recent copy of Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles or Country Living and most likely you will find Stanton. Even Jimmy's dog Terry is famous!
 
Stanton Home Furnishing is a must stop venue and a visual treat for home furnishing enthusiasts. Stanton's vision is "incorporating transitional items with unique and found objects."

Here is Terry with Jimmy's parents dog, Joey. Might I add there are not many dogs you can google and find images of. Terry has graced the pages of Country Living. He's used to the flash!


2. What is your last purchase?
A pair of antique dark grey Stafford shire lions

3. What is the easiest way to update a space?
Painting your entire space (walls, ceiling, doors & trim) all one single color. This makes the space seem larger and very calming.
