- Affordable Interior Design now has a YouTube channel where listeners can see recordings and clips of podcast episodes, as well as an Instagram and Facebook page for more content. - Deep reds, such as burgundies and russet reds, are a major trend in 2023, but should be used in small doses due to their intense and potentially overwhelming nature. - Decorating laundry rooms with playful tiles, commercial grade wallpaper, and unique cabinet handles can add a touch of fun and sophistication to these often overlooked spaces.
