My favorite design styles are upscale farmhouse, rustic bohemian, mid-century modern and urban modern. If you look at my home you would find a combination of all the styles I love with rustic bohemian as the core.

I’ve learned keeping the same theme throughout your home makes it easy to style and gives you longevity with your staple pieces and accessories. For instance, doing the holiday season I will move one of my couches in the living room into my dining room bump out window. I find during the holiday season we’re entertaining more in the dining room and this provides additional eating and seating space.

Simple Home Decor Tips to Elevate Your Space

1. Declutter and Organize
A clutter-free space instantly looks more inviting. Take time to declutter, donate unused items, and invest in smart storage solutions like decorative baskets, floating shelves, and storage ottomans.

2. Add a Fresh Coat of Paint
A fresh coat of paint can completely transform a room. Neutral shades create a timeless and calming effect, while bold colors can add character and personality. Consider an accent wall for a stylish focal point.

3. Incorporate Greenery
Plants bring life into any space. Whether you opt for fresh flowers, potted plants, or even faux greenery, adding natural elements enhances the aesthetic and improves air quality.

4. Update Your Lighting

Lighting is very important in the success of your design and they’re so many choices to choose from.  It creates a beautiful ambiance and can be a statement piece in your design space. Lighting sets the mood and adds to the shine and glitter of the room. Choosing the correct lighting to raise our oxytocin levels which are responsible for emotional joy.  Don’t forget your candles!Lighting can change the mood of a room. Layer your lighting with a combination of overhead lights, table lamps, and candles to create a warm and inviting ambiance.

5. Use Mirrors to Create Space
Mirrors reflect light and make small rooms feel more spacious. Position them strategically to maximize natural light and create an open, airy feel.




Here are a few tips I used when designing my space: Start a vision board of how you want your space to look and feel. Do your research just like you would any other project or investment. Decorating is a lot of fun and very rewarding, but it is also an investment of your time, energy and emotions as well as money. Make it fun and remember everything can be changed if you don’t like it.

6. Refresh Your Textiles
Switching out pillows, throws, and curtains can make a big impact with minimal effort. Choose textures and patterns that complement your decor and add comfort to your space.

7. Personalize with Art and Decor
Incorporate artwork, framed photos, and decorative accents that reflect your style. A gallery wall or a statement piece can serve as a stunning conversation starter.

When deciding your theme or look of your space imagine yourself actually living in the room. For me, there were many looks that I loved online or in a picture but could not actually live day to day in that space. I found doing field trips to model homes and open houses to be very helpful. It gave me and my family the opportunity to momentarily live in the space to see if the decor would be something we could live in.

8. Rearrange Furniture
Sometimes, all it takes is rearranging your furniture to give your home a fresh new look. Experiment with different layouts to find the most functional and aesthetically pleasing arrangement.

9. Scent Matters
A well-scented home feels more inviting. Use scented candles, essential oil diffusers, or fresh flowers to create a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere.

Another tip would be bringing in some type of artwork and cool accessories that really express your style and home. You do not have to break the budget with expensive artwork and accessories. Retail and online stores like T.J Maxx, IKEA, Wayfair, Pier 1, and Minted are great places to start looking for amazing pieces that will not crush the budget. Please keep in mind thrift and consignment stores as well as yard sales. I always find unexpected unique treasures at a great price.

10. Keep It Simple
Less is more when it comes to home decor. Avoid overcrowding spaces with too many items—focus on quality over quantity to achieve a balanced and harmonious look.

With these simple home decor tips, you can easily refresh your space without breaking the bank. Small changes can make a big difference, turning your home into a stylish and comfortable sanctuary.

The most important tip in your design process is to keep it FUN! Choose not to make this a stressful event for yourself or your family. If you find yourself more stressed and frustrated than happy and excited, definitely take a break for a week or two. This process can definitely be consuming.
