... good morning...

I've been waiting on you Friday.
I've been waiting on you Friday.
Recently I've been looking at the pieces in my house and realizing that I don't necessarily have one "style" or look. I like combinations of all designs to create my own. Yes I took interior design classes in college thinking I wanted to be the next big thing (quickly changed that thought after one bad art class, not my proudest moment) but realized that interior design can be my hobby and I can have a day job too.
So I graduated with a communication degree...
Anyhow, during those classes I always thought "who made these people the gurus of all things interior design"? Why can't everyone create a space using their own flair and individuality without going by "the rule book"?
You can & I did.

Create your own rules. You like it, use it. Design is an open book to whoever has an open mind. My mother having her interior design degree has given me her two cents (and I thank you Mother) on decorating my house. Some I use, some I don't.
Floor Flair (say that five times in a row)

What a glamours floor. Hello beautiful. Lately I've been drawn towards Turkish rugs, or that look thereof. Something about the vibrant colors mixed with a hint of age brings a floor to life. I'm still on the hunt for the perfect Turkish rug. Or a runner, I'm digging this one from Kate Market Interiors.
Newest family addition.

I was looking for another accent chair for my bedroom (since my one and only went to the office). My sweet grandmother said that I could use the rocking chair that was in the bedroom I always stayed in. #1. Not really looking for a rocker, but ok. #2. Why can't I ever remember a rocking chair in that bedroom?
#3. Oh wow! Was not expecting this priceless family antique. The bones and structure of this rocking chair are amazing. This one is coming in quickly as my second favorite.
Mix old with new.
The chair & dresser were handed down to me & I added new art, simple!
Your bathroom.
While procrastinating on cleaning my house for an upcoming engagement party this weekend, I floated across an article on bathrooms. Having small baths in my recent rentals, these spaces have been a little neglected & will become my new project. Note to self: find items that normally you wouldn't think would go in a bathroom.

One of my favorite quotes I've crossed has been one from Donna Karan, Personal style comes from within. It's when the woman, her individuality and spirit, comes through.
