Here is a break down of five things you can do now to spruce up you home:
Declutter and clean
Repurpose pieces in either the same space or in a new room
Fresh paint to breathe life into vintage pieces
Reupholster existing well loved pieces
Purchase investment pieces
In this episode, I give my top secret advice about investing in pieces for your home. Here’s a hint, I learned it from grandma GG.
Not sure what your decorating style is? Funky Farmhouse? Shabby Chic? I share my philosophy on personal style and what that means to you. I remove the pressure of coming up with a style and instead ask, how you want to feel in a room.
I touch on creating dual-purpose rooms when the kids head off to college. Striking a balance to be place where they can come home but also staking a claim more for a space that supports us everyday.
I also talk about ideas for a budget-friendly ways to update your decor, from painting furniture and updating hardware to looking at consignment stores.
