Hey friend!

In today's episode I'm sharing an example of what's inside The Collective, my monthly membership that is designed to be an extension of the show. Each month we will have a LIVE q & a where you can get your questions answered - there are no questions too big, too small or too (ahem) stupid.

The LIVE q & a is a chance to check in on the progress you're making within your home, to ask questions to get you unstuck, to help you make decisions - to ultimately give you the support and encouragement you need to continue decorating your home successfully.

The Collective is open twice a year and will close its doors Sunday, September 22nd and won't re-open again until March.

THE COLLECTIVE IS OPEN

thru SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2024

Hey friend!

In today's episode I'm sharing an example of my secret to creating spaces that look refined, a bit more put together - like a designer was right there doing it for you!

There is a difference between putting things on a shelf and styling decor items on a shelf / placing things on a mantle and styling items intentionally on a mantle.

Inside The Collective, my monthly membership - I teach my simple styling formula. This formula can be used to style any flat surface and could be aptly named Finishing School. :)

In today's episode I'm teaching Dee, a founding member of the membership, how to style her mantle. Dee, along with her husband Jim who helped hold the camera, were good sports as we experimented until it was just right - even good sports when the directions included, "Move that item a half inch to the left."

When it comes to styling, details like a half inch matter...A LOT!

Hey friend!

In today's episode I'm showcasing a perk found inside my monthly membership, The Collective. A Room Edit brings the designer's eye into your space giving you specific recommendations for elevating the room while honoring your goals and aesthetic.

You'll hear a Room Edit created for member, Susan and her den. Until this point it was an incomplete room that she never used. It lacked inspiration, didn't feel cozy and felt like an incomplete project that would take her years to complete.

You'll hear the specific recommendations (inside The Collective you'll see a video with the pictures to support what you hear on the podcast) to help her see the potential of that room.

Members inside The Collective have the ability to request a Room Edit as two will be featured monthly.

Susan took immediate action from her Room Edit - transforming her den into a room that she loves!

WHY IT WORKS

Hey friend!

If you've ever wondered why some gallery walls are structured differently than others and what makes one 'work' even though it seems to not follow any of the rules, this episode is for you.

In this episode I'm sharing the two different types of gallery walls and the 'rules' to follow to create each one. I share insight into how gallery walls that look chaotic may actually be following a lot of unseen rules.

This training is an example of WHY IT WORKS a series that lives inside The Collective, my monthly home decorating membership. The doors to The Collective are open TODAY thru SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 22nd!

Hey friend,

Pumpkin spice lattes are out, the leaves are turning colors and it's time to start thinking about pulling out your box of fall decorations to get your homes fall ready. But BEFORE you do that and BEFORE you run to Target to see what's new for the season and bring home the items you just couldn't live without, I want you to consider your feelings.

In this episode I'm sharing my two most effective gatekeepers or filters for helping me choose items intentionally for my decorating in general, but fall specifically as we are in the midst of changing seasons.

This strategy can be used for any season, any holiday or your decorating in general.

Grab a notebook and a pen because you're going to want to take notes.

Want to learn more about your design style? These episodes will help: # 234: STOP wasting your time taking those home decorating style quizzes. Do THIS if you're wanting to learn your design style

# 238: Do you know your design style? Learn how to identify it so you can decorate your home with less overwhelm

# 265: The Secret to understanding your design style is being a lurker

Hey friend! Are you ready for a kitchen re-fresh? Today on the podcast we're continuing with our mini series: how to spend $500 in a single room to get the most bang for your buck!

If you missed last week, where we elevated the look of our bathroom, go back and listen to episode #269.

Remember...BIG change doesn't have to cost a lot and in today's episode I'm sharing how actually, the BIGGEST change you can make in your kitchen is actually FREE. Zero money. Zero dollars. Zilch.

So when it comes time to spend the $500, think about intentionality with the items you have living on the kitchen counters. Corraling them into functional vignettes while keeping negative space on your countertops will dramatically create an impact worth replicating.

Hey friend!

Have you heard the trending phrase on social media "demure and mindful?" It's popping up everywhere and even my 13 year old son has taken notice (and he doesn't have social media). So it got me wondering...what in the world is everyone talking about?

As I looked into 'demure' and what it meant versus what I thought it meant, I also noticed that there's a very similar word with quite the opposite meaning: 'demur.' If creating a home that is demure is your goal, you don't want to get the two confused. :) In today's episode I'm sharing 8 ways that your home can look and feel demure without it feeling like a pretentious museum room.

If you're wanting to create a demure look and feel in your home, you can start with these 8 things: 1. Create a calm color palette: 50 shades of white anyone? If you must have a 'pop' of color - try oatmeal or mushroom.

2. Use light wood tones: white oak or natural immediately come to mind. Don't have that? Try a painting technique instead of throwing out your cherry entryway table.

3. Brass or Champagne gold metals. The goal here is minimal contrast - so avoid bronze, flat matte black at all costs.

4. Remove the chaos, the clutter, the extras...on EVERY surface. Demure homes resemble minimal homes.

5. Quality of furniture matters, but not in a flashy way. Demure homes are quiet and respectful - not pretentious.

6. Consider the weight of objects in your home. Demure homes are opposite of heavy - they're light and airy.

7. The scent matters: choose subtle scents with no dominant identifiers that indicate what it is. No pumpkin spice, lavender, even vanilla. The more benign, but delicious, the better.

8. Consider the background sound as well as the scent. Demure homes are not loud, flashy or calling attention to themselves. Turn down Alexa playing the latest Jellyroll song (not my style anyway) and opt for instrumental playing at a volume 2 - audible, but only as a faint whisper.
