WHERE TO START

Bre will walk readers through how to assess their rooms. What are the must haves, currently don’t love and can get rid of, don’t love but have to keep (i.e. TV), love and can stay, heirlooms, or what was bought just to fill the room? What can stay and what should go?Organizing and taking inventory is a great way to start. From there, she helps readers decide how to make every day spaces pleasant and enjoyable.

{DESIGN TOPIC}

Leaning on Bre’s experience as an interior designer, each chapter will also cover a design topic that the specific room illustrates. Those topics include style, planning your space (based on the room’s function), choosing a color palette, window treatments, flooring and rugs, furniture, lighting, styling, texture, architectural details.

FINISHING THE SPACE ON THE BUDGET

Bre talks throw pillows, tables, lamps, rugs, paint, etc. This is all about prioritizing and getting the most bang for our buck. Decorating is step by step and over time. Bre’s message won’t be about more money but instead when to save and what you should budget extra dollars for. If you are willing to save for it, it shows you how much you. Bre will talk about taking your time and finding contentment first.

FAMILY-FRIENDLY SOLUTIONS

A big part of Bre’s message is about making the home first serve the family and then enjoyable for each family member. You don’t have to wait to have a beautiful home because you have kids or pets or don’t have kids or don’t have pets or have extra people staying with you, etc. What can you do to make it family-friendly and lovely right now? Even further, she encourages readers to ask the question, “Does your home tell your family’s story?” If not, it should, and she’ll help you make it happen.
