What is a MAJOR Pain Point I often see?

Clients often love their homes but just don't love the builder basic look and want to have their homes reflect their personality & style. So how can this be addressed??

?

1. Play with striking ways to add color to your home. You can do this with paint or even fabrics (think pillows, bedding, even decor). This can be an accent wall or an entire room and if you don't like it, you just need to re-paint.?

2. Take what you already have around your home and re-arrange it, and I mean take it all down and this is also a good time to edit out what isn't working anymore (let's face it, sometimes our tastes change). Now create a collection with items and don't be afraid to leave a wall blank, trust me, it looks better than having something on every wall. Once this part is done, you may have space for a new piece you've been eyeing! ?

3. Always take design risks! Some of the biggest advances started with someone saying 'why do we do it this way?' When I'm working with my clients and it doesn't matter if it's actual construction or decor, I often hear 'I didn't think of that.' You may find in this whole process and just by these 3 things, your home has already started to transform into one that you now love.?

Oh and the picture you see is from my own dining table edit. I found a gorgeous stone container at market & played with contrast using the greenery & white stone. Then the gold antlers introduce texture and create a sort of yin and yang that makes asian influence so interesting. I finished it with some amethyst & quartz crystal for a little sparkle. ??????
