Matching We are all guilty of this. When you pop into HomeSense and see an amazing throw blanket that has the exact pattern as your accent pillows, your first thought is “Oh! That matches my pillows!” If that enters your head, it’s time to switch gears! Matching all the décor in your home creates a monot- onous and unvaried vibe that you will surely shut the door on sooner than later. When styling a room or whole house, you need to create flow. Every - thing needs to look great together but have its own story as well. Varia- tion is beautiful. To create flow, make sure everything is complimentary, your overall theme is always the foundation of your creativity, and always have fun! Don’t take your decisions so seriously and it will be sure to pay off.
Layering When you’re in the reno mode, it is difficult to not go all in and purchase everything you need at that moment. Patience is an integral part of reaching your home design goal. By setting up your room one layer at a time, you have the opportunity to see your room’s progress one step at a time. This way you can set up, step back, and gauge how the room is coming together. You can add new inspo, remove anything that has come to light through- out the process that you don’t love, and tweak where you are headed.
