Decorating can be daunting and overwhelming, but here’s the secret: If you want to love your house, the inspiration and ideas need to come from you. Interior designer Paige Rien thinks it’s about more than creating a beautiful space; it’s about creating a home that reflects you and all that you find comforting and inspiring in your life.
Through 40 actionable steps, you’ll discover tools that will help you:
Explore your life story: Mine your life for those things that inspire nostalgia and create a positive connection to memories, explore your family’s heritage, and be conscious of how you want to live now.
Understand what you’re working with: Take stock of your stuff, understand the history of your home, and get clear on the space you have.
Create an inspired action plan: Discover how to approach design room-by-room, find the through line that ties the whole house together, and work in ways that empower your own ideas and creativity.
Learn the design skills that matter: Get tips on picking paint colors, choosing window dressings, arranging art, and more.
When you start decorating your home with you as the starting point, you can create a highly personalized space that reflects your past, your future, and how you want to live today.
