187 // Confessions of a home decorator: my home used to be ugly (pt. 2)
Tuesday Sep 26, 2023
Tuesday Sep 26, 2023
My home used to be ugly!
You read that right. Until I knew better, I couldn't do better. My first home...was ugly. Every room in the open concept home was painted a different color, there was no continuity or cohesiveness - nothing to tie it all together. Until you know better, you won't be able to do better in your own home.
Pinterest will only be so helpful. HGTV shows will only be so inspiring. Hiring a fancy-pants home designer will leave you thousands in the hole (with a beautiful home, but thousands in the hole).
It's time to KNOW BETTER!
* Learn anywhere, anytime
* Lower price point
* Instant access
* No limited class size
* Private student-only Facebook Group to get questions answered
Learn about:
* Assessing the needs of a room
* Defining your aesthetic
* Choosing a color palette
* Creating a cohesive home
* Making a visual mood board
* Tips for shopping on a budget

PUT DOWN YOUR CREDIT CARD!!!
When you are moving into a new home the temptation for decorating is STRONG! When you're starting with a blank slate like listener Andi, it's even stronger! We live in a society that honors and encourages instant gratification, but the basic home design principles encourage the opposite.
Take your time, be patient, create a plan! WHY would you do that when you so badly want to make your new home delightful?
You'll SAVE MONEY, SAVE TIME and live with LESS REGRET!

185 // Is inspiration overload keeping you from decorating your home?
Friday Sep 15, 2023
Friday Sep 15, 2023
Are you in inspiration overload?
Pinterest, Instagram, Tik Tok, HGTV...inspiration is everywhere. We can spend so much time in inspiration consumption mode that we don't ever move into action. How do you start decorating your home when you are constantly inspired by the latest trend, the newest shiny object or a vision that doesn't seem attainable?
You start by:
~ getting in alignment with how you feel about your home
~ creating a plan and a vision for what you want your home to look and feel like
~ you work backward to create it
Listen to the second part of the conversation with interior designer Jessica Velasquez about how she inspires her clients to work beyond the vision and inspiration.
If this conversation inspired you to take action in your own home, I invite you to join me in a FREE, LIVE two day workshop where you learn the fundamentals of creating a cohesive, cozy home on a budget!

"We all want to jump to the sexy part...making things pretty, but first we need to:
Shift our mindset
Do simple math
Understand the purpose
Be self-aware
Fix the problems
This conversation with interior designer Jessica Velasquez was a good one...good enough to repeat from last year. We talk about limiting beliefs keeping people from investing (money or time) in their environment, why home is so important, how to have pretty things while also having kids at home and SO MUCH MORE. Part two of this conversation will air tomorrow.

What does Barbie have to do with home decorating?
This summer when the movie Barbie was released in theaters it sent a new decor trend into action: Barbiecore. And although Barbiecore is decorating using a mostly pink palette with some neons and flashy metals, it is more than that.
Barbiecore in the most simplistic sense is:
playful
fun
whimsical
bold
confident
AND
unapologetically feminine!
We can learn a lot from Barbiecore...
even if we don't decorate with one single piece of pink inside our homes!
I'm sharing how in today's episode!
