" Beauty in Simplicity" is a mantra I have lived by for over 30 years.
Stop the Insanity!
The whole keeping up with the "Joneses" and the trends, the new cars, the perfect house, an education, and owning a glass and mirror business, the constant pressure and raising two littles almost broke my marriage and definitely broke our financial situation in the early days of our marriage.
The Good News is: I got over it, the marriage survived, our finances recovered eventually. I got through college and walked out with a design degree. The 80's were crazy! Buy Buy Buy...Good Bye.
I learned some very valuable lessons from those days that I have incorporated into my design thought processes:
1. Save up for the big pieces
2. Choose quality over quantity
3. Don't be in a hurry to finish
4. Don't settle for something else
5. Be patient until you find it
6. Rome wasn't built in a day, neither is authentic style.
7. BE YOU always.
8. Enjoy !the journey
It takes time and effort to create a style you can live with for the rest of your days. It will be ever evolving because we as humans are always evolving. Know when to say enough is a enough. Know when to say no and Be you! Keep it simple and you will be amazed how much time you have to enjoy your home. (no pressure)
So I am here to help you through this decorating insanity! We will work on this together without spending a fortune, with creative ways to help you find your own authentic, unique, chic style.
Keeping it Simple,
