Redesign means different things to different people. In today’s blog I’ll explain what it means to me. This, in turn, may prompt you to think about redesign and what it might mean in your life.

Have you ever chosen a paint color, one you absolutely love, and then once it’s up on the walls your love has turned to lukewarm like or downright disdain? Why? Why is this happening, you may ask yourself—especially if you already painted the entire living room the color you just knew would be perfect.

Today I’m going to share with you three things that can affect your color choice. Once you’ve learned these, you won’t ever have to suffer “painter’s remorse” again! So let’s walk through them.

When we talk about designing or decorating our homes, we often talk about injecting our personality so we feel as comfortable as possible. Did you know that the way you choose to decorate and design your home can reflect whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert? Let’s break things down and explore intro v. extro interiors. The awareness may help you customize your space to better suit your inner you.

Many people get hung up when it comes to choosing a color scheme for a room they want to redesign. If you’re one of those people, you won’t be for long. In this blog ’ll share a very special trick to help you cruise when you need to choose. On the basis of that last sentence you’re probably thinking, “Michele, are you a wizard? Or a poet? Or both?” True wizard poets never reveal themselves. Let’s leave it at that.

Whether your weather is reflecting spring, stubborn winter, or too-soon summer, the calendar tells us spring is officially here. Now, or eventually, is the perfect time to make plans to refresh to your patio or deck space.

Just like our interior spaces in our home, our outdoor spaces can use a little update from time to time. In this post, I will give you some ideas for easy and affordable changes you can make to help make the most of your outdoor living spaces.

Have you ever walked into a room in your home and said to yourself, “It’s beautiful and functional so why don’t I feel good when I’m in here?” Well, a lot of times, this happens because there hasn't been enough done to insert you (and by you, I mean your personality) into that particular space. Today, I’m going to give you some ideas on different things that can help make that space in your home feel more like you. Because usually if there is a space like this in our homes, we tend to ignore them and use them very little or sadly, sometimes, not at all. So, let’s not waste any more time talking, let’s get started!

Not everyone lives in a big house with lots of square footage. You may live in a studio apartment, small condo, townhome, or even just a smaller single family home. And even if you do live in a bigger home, you may have a room or two that aren’t all that roomy (sorry, pun intended). Seven’s a lucky number so read on for seven big furniture ideas for small places.

A lot can be said for choosing a darker color scheme in a room. It can be dramatic and warm and sensual and sophisticated and…well, you see where I’m going. Darker can be better depending on the feel you’re trying to create. And if you choose the darker road less traveled, don’t fear that your space won’t be livable. Don’t go to that dark place. In your mind, that is. You should be aware of things you can do to bring a little balance to enjoy all the cool while maintaining the functionality every space needs. You can “have your cake and eat it, too,” or in this situation, have your dark and live in it, too!

Itching to change the look of your home’s interior but inflation’s putting a damper on your disposable income? I sympathize. We’re all feeling it. So, this may not be the year for a major remodel or update, but you can make smaller changes that will still bring about a big impact. The best part is these small changes are super easy and they won’t break the bank! So read on to learn how you can pursue an affordable refresh.

We open our windows to let in the breeze. We love to display fresh flowers. We hang photos depicting nature. We introduce natural elements like wood and stone. And we create views so we can sit in our homes and be inspired by the great outdoors. Clearly, we love to bring the outdoors in. So, in this blog, I’ll provide tips to do just that, whether your home is an apartment, condo, town home or traditional single family home.

White walls tend to get a bad rap. Many people think you should put color on your walls. I tend to be one of those people who preaches color, color, color! However, I do think there are times when white walls can be beautiful. They can make a space feel bright, clean, and fresh. In this blog I’ll share ideas to bring in warmth, texture, or color to turn a bland white interior into a wow interior!

Okay, so you’re ready to paint. Stepladder? Check. Rollers and brushes? Check. Extra help lined up? Check—thanks to the promise of post-painting wine. What’s missing here? Ahhhhh, yes, the paint. So many of us get hung up here. Choosing color to put on all those big blank walls seems daunting. Sometimes even paralyzing! Well, fear no more, friends. This blog will make selecting paint as easy as bribing your friend with that bottle of wine!
