Do you have a room in your home with low natural light?
When you have a room in your home with little to no natural light, you have three choices for decorating:
1. Leave it as-is and do nothing
2. Try to lighten it by highlighting the contrasts
3. Embrace the dark and create an intentionally moody, refined, cozy space
If you'd like to learn more about how to combat a naturally dark room in your home, go back and listen to Episode 224.
In today's episode we are embracing the darkness and creating an intentionally refined, yet cozy, moody space. I share five design elements that will help you to achieve the look:
1. Dark walls
2. A color palette with colors that have deep undertones
3. Ambient lighting
4. Warm accents: wood and brass
5. Textures: velvet and leather
Bonus: traditional pattern
Creating intentional spaces in your home using your design aesthetic (or design style) is something that can be learned. If you are wanting to learn how to create a home that looks cohesive and feels cozy, whether it is bright and airy or moody and broody, I invite you to join me inside Home Design 101 where we learn all things home design in terms YOU can understand.

Do you have everyday clutter that you don't know what to do with?
Everyday clutter is visual clutter that we live with day in and day out. It's useful clutter - things like cords for tech, coffee canisters on the kitchen counters, keys and mail. Every home has everyday clutter, but does every home have a way to contain the clutter in a way that looks pleasing to your design sensibilities (aka pretty)?

3 Ways you can incorporate vintage furniture into your more modern design style:
So, you LOVE modern farmhouse design aesthetic, but mom brings over your grandma's vintage hutch. It's lovely, but it was lovely in grandma's home because it was grandma's. You wouldn't mind entertaining the idea of keeping it, but you don't know how to marry such an antiquated piece of furniture with a more modern home with modern furnishings.
First thing's first...if you're receiving this as a gift from a family member who wants to 'keep it in the family' be sure you understand the rules of engagement - aka - the expectations. Know the boundaries up front before you agree to say yes to a piece that, though lovely, you may not want to keep in its current state. Ask: will you be ok if I change it (paint it, stain it, add legs to it, add wallpaper to it, etc.). If the answer is no, as the receiver of the gift, it's OK for you to politely decline.
1. If it's part of a set - break up the set. Furniture sets in general immediately date your room often times create a bulkiness in the room that is hard to design or decorate around.
2. Remember that contrast is a good thing. Think in terms of opposites attract: old vs. new. Light vs. dark. Opposite, in home design are no different. Pairing complete opposites is a fun way to design a home. Think of these combos as examples: masculine vs. feminine. Industrial vs. modern.
3. Modify the original piece by painting or staining it, changing hardware, adding wallpaper, legs or caning. Think outside the box to modify it in a way that makes the structure of the antiquated design a bit more current.

Are you afraid of making a MISTAKE?
What if I choose the wrong color?
What if I mess it up?
What if I choose the wrong size?
What if I don't like the change?
What if I like it?
Raise your hand if you feel stuck in in-action because you are afraid that you'll make a mistake while decorating your home? In this episode I share my reasons why making a mistake might actually be the best thing for you! Why? Because mistakes mean ACTION. And action is opposite of being stuck.
The 5 Ps to help you take action in home decorating when you're worried about making a mistake:
1. Petite: start small
2. Pin: see the big picture by going microscopic (hint: it's not about collecting beautiful images on Pinterest)
3. Practice: taking action, even small action, is better than staying stuck
4. Partner: grab a partner, take a class, hire a coach - get the accountability, but DON'T put out a poll on Facebook
5. Patience: celebrate your progress, embrace the imperfections and have a little grace for this learning period

Have you ever wondered how to shop like a designer?
What do they do first? How do they save money? How do they make decisions with confidence? How do they know it will look good together before they bring it all home?
PUTTING YOUR CREDIT CARD AWAY
But what happens after that? After you commit to NOT running to the nearest home decor store or your favorite website?
You understand the needs of your room. You create a plan. You work on the foundation, creating a color palette. You make a budget. You learn of the changes that you'd like to make, which ones will have the largest most dramatic impact and you start there. You take your time.
Ready to make those changes in your own home? Learn how inside Home Design 101.
