Hi friend! 

In today's episode I'm walking you through 5 simple steps for recognizing problem areas in your home that spill over into messiness and make you feel disorganized. 

1. Identify your high traffic zones. Those are usually the culprits for the cogs in the wheel - the messy or unorganized places. 

2. Disect the problem in that area. What's currently happening that isn't working. 

3. Identify HOW you want that space to function for you. How can it work harder for you and not you for it. 

4. Start making a plan for remediation - really thinking about what it is you need (or already have) in order to solve this problem. 

5. Execute! 

Bonus tips are included for when motivation at this stage is now the cog in your execution wheel. 

Do you want help making your space feel more functional AND beautiful? Book a Decorating SOS Call. 

Happy organizing!

Decluttering episode mentioned in show: Ep. 338

Hey friend,

I’ll walk you through:

Here’s how to bring farmcore into your space:

Wall Treatments – Think shiplap (yes, it’s still in!), beadboard, and board and batten to add depth and visual interest.

Layered Textures – Cozy it up with wallpaper, window treatments, throw pillows, blankets, and area rugs.

Traditional Silhouettes – Choose quality furniture with classic lines like wingback chairs and rolled arms.

Antique Pieces – Mix in vintage or antique furnishings for a curated, lived-in look.

Rustic Elements – Raw woods, stoneware, and iron accents help ground the space.

Natural Materials – Lean into wood, linen, cotton, and clay for an organic feel.

Pattern Mixing – Don’t be afraid to pair florals with plaids or stripes—step outside the design box!

Moody Earth Tones – Create a rich foundation with colors inspired by nature—think deep greens, browns, and terracotta.

Farmcore brings nostalgia and warmth with a modern, curated twist. You don’t have to live in the country to love this style—and you definitely don’t need a big budget.

xo,

dani

Hey friend!

Did you know that multiple studies have shown a direct correlation between a cluttered environment and elevated levels of cortisol — our body’s primary stress hormone? When our surroundings are messy or chaotic, our brain perceives it as “unfinished business,” which keeps us in a state of stress.

So even if you're not consciously thinking, "Ugh, this clutter is stressing me out," your body is. And it’s responding by keeping you in a low-grade stress mode — making it harder to focus, sleep, or even relax.

But let’s think beyond cortisol for a second.

Clutter also impacts:

Your energy: It’s mentally draining.

Your relationships: It can lead to arguments or embarrassment about inviting people over.

Your productivity: Visual distractions make it harder to concentrate.

Your confidence: A cluttered home can make you feel like you're "failing" at adulting — even though you're absolutely not.

You deserve to feel proud of your home — not overwhelmed by it.

Hey friend!

Sometimes we are in different seasons of decorating. Sometimes we're in an active sprint - actively painting, re-tiling or choosing large pieces of furniture before a specific deadline. Other times we're at a much slower pace - absorbing information and gathering inspiration, while simultaneously making a plan.

But then there's the third place you could be in and if truth be told, this one is the one that stops most people from ever taking a step forward...and that's a place of stuckness.

There are many reasons why you might be stuck. Sometimes it's being so overwhelmed by choices that you fear making a poor one. Other times there's a feeling of frustration at not knowing where to start. No matter the reason - if I just described you, this episode is for you.

5 simple routines to follow when you're constantly stuck in the place of not knowing where to start or feeling like there's too much to do:

1. The 10 minute edit: 

Allowing yourself to see your home in a new perspective with less visual clutter can be a helpful starting place that allows you to see the potential.

2. Snapshots of problem areas:

This may sound counter intuitive, but take a picture of an area in your home that you can't stand. Look at it through the lens for a fresh perspective and journal about what you see and why it's problematic.

3. The ONE thing rule:

Focusing on one aligned step is much better than five rushed ones.

4. Learn your style:

Always a top priority and the foundation for creating a home you love. Use Pinterest, Google or good old fashioned magazines to start recognizing common elements that you are attracted to.

5. Make a plan:

Set your home goals then work backward, crafting small steps that will help you achieve those goals.

Hey friend!

In today's episode I'm sharing a bit of history about the ancient, from nature, math sequence that inspires many industries, home design included. The Fibonnaci Sequence is a sequence of numbers that when added together create perfect scale and proportion. When used in home decorating, that scale and proportion is the heart of making a room look cohesive, put together and aesthetically pleasing!

The ratio is SO IMPORTANT it is known in the design world as THE GOLDEN RATIO, thus making each 'rule' it applies to The Golden Rule of x (choosing an area rug, choosing a paint palette, choosing the correct size for a coffee table, etc). What is that ratio. 40:60.
