Trends tend to come and go but there are certain elements of design that will never go out of style. There's something special about timeless pieces and styles and those that remain chic and sophisticated for decades. Creating a classic look will make your space simple, functional and will be far from boring. 😊

Getting organized (and purging the clutter) is the easiest way to refresh your home for the new year!

The best way to achieve quality lighting is to layer your lighting sources. The rule of thumb for layered lighting is to use all three types of lighting – ambient, accent, and task. Home buyers love seeing a well-lit home so bring on the best lighting you possibly can when showing off this home feature. People tend to make better decisions in lower light; too bright intensifies the emotions but the right lighting can add vibrance and calmness to a space. 🔆

Ready to Sell? Showcase the best features of your house, not every item you've collected over the past 10+ years. Pack those momentos and non-functional items and put them in storage.

Clutter is a major turnoff for potential buyers so clearing these spaces will put their minds at rest and give the impression that your home is bigger and add value to it.

Who wouldn't want that?!💰🏡 😍

This is going to be a great year for design, so it's exciting to embrace the new interior decor trends coming our way in 2023! I'm loving how homes are expected to be more nostalgic, welcoming and filled with statement pieces.

Taking inventory of all that I am grateful for as we enter 2023. The Celebration of Life Week was created to help us break free of our schedules and ease into the year with hearts of gratitude. 🥰

A home is one of the most sacred of places there is. It's a sanctuary into which we can retreat, gather with loved ones and provides a sense of strength, comfort and peace. 🏡

What really makes a 🏡 stand out are all of the decor details. Details make a BIG difference and can elevate a space and take it to the next level. By focusing on details with decorative elements and design, you can give visual interest and life to your home.

Think about pattern, texture, color palettes, accessories, room flow and all of those details that serve to enhance a room's overall look. Add ambience to a room by turning on the fireplace in the colder months. Open up the windows and let the view and natural light in. Layer pillows and throws on the sofa. Every detail makes a statement and makes the difference between a boring home and a bright and polished one. 🤩🌟🏡

It's no surprise that the real estate market was on fire in 2021 and we're just now seeing the trend slowing. According to Residential Realty Today, interest rates continue to rise and home buying has slowed down. However, the market is still rich with buyers. 🏡

While using black may seem like a dramatic choice, when used in small doses, it can actually brighten a room. The reality is that at least a little bit of black is essential in every space and a little bit of black can go a long way.
