Q&A
Getting Started
Q: I have no idea what my style is. Where do I even begin?
A: Start with what you love! Think about your favorite clothes, travel destinations, or even your favorite colors. Create a mood board on Pinterest to collect images that inspire you. You'll likely notice a pattern of styles, colors, and textures that you're naturally drawn to.
Q: I'm on a tight budget. Can I still decorate with style?
A: Absolutely! You can achieve a beautiful look without spending a fortune. Our blog is full of tips on shopping second-hand, tackling fun DIY projects, and focusing on small, impactful changes that make a big difference.
Decorating Tips
Q: How do I choose the right color for a room?
A: Consider the mood you want to create. Soft, neutral colors are great for a calm bedroom, while bolder colors can make a statement in a living room. Always test a paint sample on your wall before you commit to the whole room, and see how it looks in both natural and artificial light.
Q: My small room feels cramped. How can I make it look bigger
A: There are a few tricks! Use light colors on the walls, add mirrors to reflect light, and choose furniture with exposed legs to create a sense of space. Keep the room clutter-free, and use vertical storage to draw the eye upward.
Troubleshooting & Maintenance
Q: How do I mix different patterns and textures without it looking messy?
A: The key is to have a consistent color palette. Stick to a few main colors and then play with patterns and textures within that range. For example, if you have a blue and white theme, you can mix a striped rug, a floral cushion, and a velvet throw—as long as they all fit the color scheme.
Q: I’m not good with plants. Which ones are the easiest to care for?
A: Don't worry, you're not alone! We recommend starting with hardy plants like a snake plant, ZZ plant, or pothos. They are very forgiving and can thrive with minimal light and water, making them perfect for beginners.
