That's the only design rule I follow. Probably because it doesn't feel like a rule; it feels like freedom. DESIGN FREEEEEEDOM! Yelled like Mel Gibson in Braveheart. ;)
A great rule of thumb! I love how you decorate with what makes you happy - like your red family room! I am totally yelling Design FREEEEEEEEEEDOMMMMMMM!!! Ahhhh that was fun. :)
This is really good advice but I think it definitely helps you have amazing desin taste. hehe, but it's true that if it's not your style you might not even feel comfortable in your own house. :) Thanks so much for sharing.
I am not a trend follower per se, so I do quite agree with this thought. You should be surrounded by all the things you love, right? Have a great weekend, Carmel!
