Decorate Your Home

A few of my must haves that truly make my
home comfortable are: lamps, baskets and containers, textiles, personal artwork,
controlled collectables, a distinctive sense of style, and a harmonious color
scheme. If all of the above items are in balance, then that room in my house
will always be attractive, comfortable, and functional.
I like to put lamps
in a triangle around a room, that way the light will bounce comfortably inside
the room.

· Baskets are an easy answer to containing mail, CDs,
movies, or any kind of projects I might want to put away until
later.

· I use complimentary colors (colors opposite of each
other on the color wheel. Once I find the colors I like, I stick to them when I
shop.

· Of course I know what my style is, and understanding
someone else’s style is of the utmost important when helping them to decorate.


·  Finally, when it’s time for my final touches, I keep in
mind the value of balancing, texture and patterns, rough and smooth, shiny and
dull, round and square to keep the room interesting.

I am on the
blog-wagon, and I like it! I am feeling more than excited to tell  first tell
you that much of my inspiration comes from nature. The cool, crisp air of fall
has finally arrived. (My favorite time of year)This is the time of year to
gather with family and friends, and use some of these beautiful autum colors to
spruce up our homes.
Fall foliage offers a beautiful backdrop, creating the
perfect setting for brand new colors.

    I can't wait to try new things, especially when
    creating a new room! As long as I can remember the fire has been burning. I have
      been the person that people call when they move to a new home, and don't know
    what to do with their "stuff." Or, just simply want a new look.
    
    I am always happy to when those calls come. In fact,  I
    wouldn't have it any other way!
    My wonderful husband supported
    me when I decided to pursue my dream of interior decorating. As they say... "The
    rest is history!"
