My sister and brother-in-law live in a very nice community in East Cobb and have lived there from almost the beginning. It was built almost 20 years ago and the clubhouse that started out as an office for the newly built neighborhood, later turned into the clubhouse and is a pretty "little house" right next to the pool. They rent out the clubhouse for homeowners who need a space for entertaining and parties. I've long admired this clubhouse from the exterior and the interior, as it's a traditional and lovely space to look at. Of course, it was decorated almost 20 years ago, so you know that that meant? Tuscan golds and deep reds, which were all the rage back then. It was definitely time for an update. I can't believe that none of us took before pics because I was in there looking before all the updates were done and I didn't take any and neither did my sister. She and her neighbor, Marc, who I've featured during Christmas on my blog a couple of times, got together with a budget of just over $5K and completely remade this clubhouse recently, so I thought y'all would enjoy seeing it. Marc is a very talented designer and you all loved his house decked out for Christmas when I featured him, so check out his house in Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3, and in 2013 Christmas here. They worked hard, coming up with ideas and shopping for the house, painting furniture, and getting this space spruced up with a newer and fresher look. Some of the things that were there originally were able to be used again, so I'll point those out to you as we look at the After pics. It's so fun to see a newly refreshed space!
