Interior Design Projects In Progress
Spring has arrived (along with a lot of pollen), and we’re busy bees here at Lesley Myrick Interior Design. Many of our Macon, Georgia interior design projects take a year or more to complete, and it’s hard to wait for projects to be finished to share what we’re up to! Here’s a peek at several…
Read MoreMacon, Georgia Interior Design of a Living Room and Dining Room
Last month, I shared the before-and-after photos with you of my kitchen remodel. Now, this month’s Macon, Georgia interior design project features my living room and dining room makeover. While neither space needed remodeling, we updated the furnishings and decor to freshen up the design and ensure both rooms flowed well visually with the kitchen.…
Read MoreMacon, Georgia Interior Design of a Kitchen
I can’t wait to share the before-and-after photos with you of this Macon, Georgia interior design project – because it’s my own kitchen!

Read MoreMacon Love: Favorite Local Artists
I’ve been an interior designer in Macon, Georgia for almost 5 years, and this edgy Southern city continues to surprise me in the best possible ways. (After all, before moving here, I had only heard of Macon on a very unflattering episode of Sex and the City.) One of those delightful surprises has been the…
Read MoreCurrently Crushing On…Teal
When am I not crushing on teal? From my teal sofa to my favorite teal leather jacket to the many iterations of the Lesley Myrick Interior Design logo (here), teal is my favorite and it’s here to stay.

Read MoreTravel Inspiration: San Antonio, Texas
Several times per year, I step away from the day-to-day of interior design in Macon, Georgia and treat myself to a few days away at a spa or resort (or both!). Sometimes I use this time to leave work behind and recharge personally with a new book, journal, and massage; other times, like on my…
Read MoreBefore and After: Renovated Farmhouse Bedroom in Forsyth, GA
Last month, we shared the project reveal of a 100-year-old farmhouse living room, dining room, and lounge in Forsyth, Georgia. While the goal for those family-centric spaces was to bring a light and bright feel, the design direction for the primary bedroom was completely different – think rich, intimate, and cozy. And in typical LMID…
Read MoreBefore and After: Renovated Farmhouse in Forsyth, GA
A professional family in Forsyth, Georgia, recently renovated their 100-year-old farmhouse. While they loved the character of the home they were able to retain (original shiplap! Rustic exposed ceilings!) they were not loving how overwhelmingly brown everything felt after the remodel. Our goal? Infuse this dark home with light, color, pattern, and personality. We introduced rich neutral…
Read MoreCurrently Crushing On…Florals, Faces, and Fluting
I’m currently on summer vacation with my family in beautiful Minnesota (hello boating, swimming, campfires and starlight) but even when away from the office I’m always thinking about interior design. Some of my favorite furniture and decor pieces I’ve been crushing on lately have bold florals, quirky faces, and Art Deco-inspired fluting. (That Nero marble…

Macon, Georgia is a city rich in history, rock ‘n roll culture, and…home goods? While I often source furnishings, lighting and decor from my trusted trade vendors nationwide, I love to shop for those special finishing touches locally.
