When it comes to decorating it’s all about taking the classics and putting a twist on them. I like things to be colorful, over scaled, and fun. Here are a few tricks to update your space for a new spin.

1) Add fun trim

2) Paint your doors

I prefer a color, obviously, but classic black up against white trim, never gets old. A great way to get that POP!

3) Art, art, ART!!

Art is amazing and will transform your space. Buy as much as you can afford….even if it means you’ll starve for a month.

4, Add the unexpected

Unusual Furniture

Always look to add that extra surprise. When you can add unexpected whimsy, unusual character or a bit of clever humor you got yourself a winner!

Trim is often overlooked these days almost like wallpaper. This is not your grandmothers tassel trim. There are so many fun new options that add whimsey and classic taste. Don’t be shy, jump in head first.
