Discussing the 2023 design trends today! We've got lots to say to keep you up to date, on trend, but not 'trendy'! Must listen for all design lovers...

So many trends hang on for more than one year, while others fizzle out quietly with little more than a whimper after a year. So many things are out this year like shiplap and all gray interiors. Wallpaper is hot, and so much more.

The cool grays are out and were really never a good choice.

We love these gray wall paints:

BM Owl Gray

BM Stonington Gray

We've talked about creating your own signature style HERE

But you know what's just as important? We think it's developing your own signature color palette. It's important to decide what colors you want to use. Limiting these colors to your signature ones, will help your home to feel cohesive. It helps when you want to move things from one room to another, and it makes it easier when you are shopping for decor. Try to stick to 3-5 colors for your palette.

We mentioned the episode about china cabinets. Take a listen if you want to go topless HERE

We all have a budget, and it's so hard to stick to it. Today we're talking about how to not blow your budget, and we've got some of our favorite tips to share. Staying on budget means that you need to think about the long haul, and not about instant gratification. Sometimes you have to wait for that special thing. Don't fall into the trap of buying filler pieces that you don't don't really like. It's okay to have empty spaces in your home.

Be sure you know what items cost, then you'll know it when you see a good price.

Summertime and the living (and decorating) is easy! There are so many simple ideas to freshen up for this season. 

Summer decorating might just be more about what you take away than what you add. Remove and store away any items that say winter. That is includes the beloved furry Mongolain pillows!

Maybe you take down drapes & let the room bask in even more sunlight.

If you are adding for summer, how about:

If it's isn't fun, you're not doing it right. Decorating is a fun, exciting experience, at least it should be. If it stresses you, then sit down, relax and take a listen.

Don't worry about your house being perfect! Embrace the imperfections and focus on what you love about your house. Reduce clutter, give yourself some grace, and complete those unfinished house projects that are driving you nuts.

TEP 11: START WITH THE BIG PIECES

Start shopping for pieces you love, starting with the larger pieces first, like the sofa or chairs. As you narrow down each piece, add their price to your budget. Shop around to find the best deals on the items you have selected.

Your deliverable: A detailed shopping list outlining each piece of furniture and accessory you need to purchase. This is the end of the challenge. The next steps are to implement your plan, but that will vary depending on what you are doing. We'd love to see your living room. Tag us on Instagram.

STEP 10: BUDGET EVERYTHING

Put your furniture list into a spreadsheet with a total budget amount at the bottom – pick a figure you’re comfortable with that seems reasonable with the amount of things you have to buy. Then, start alloting amounts to each item, keeping in mind what you think each item costs. Change the allotments as needed without changing your bottom line. The bottom line needs to be at your budget or below. Remember to budget at least 20% for unplanned issues, taxes, and delivery.

Your deliverable: A detailed budget spreadsheet

STEP 8: MEASURE AND CREATE A FLOOR PLAN

Now that you know your needs and wants, it’s time to pop these items in a floor plan to see which ones make the cut. Use graph paper and pen or an app. I use Sweet Home 3D. to make a floor plan to scale, and start dropping furniture pieces in.

Your deliverable: A floor plan (or a few floor plan options) showing how you want your space to flow with your furniture arranged on the plan.

Feel the freedom of an organized house when you give in to the 'urge to purge'. It's even more fun than buying something new. Take a listen and see what we mean.

Firstly, please find someone to give your discards to. If you have old towels or blankets, check with your local humane society to see if they will take them.

Secondly try to do a declutter at least once a year. If you don't the job will become too overwhelming and you won't even want to start it.

Put like things together, that way you'll be able to find things and know where everything is. Now you will be less likely to accidentally buy something you already have.

DTT living room challenge

STEP 6: CONSIDER YOUR LIFESTYLE

This is where practicality steps in. You may want the look of a Parisian flat with velvets and silk, but you live in suburban American with 2 small kids and a dog with a delicate digestive system. You are going to need to be honest with yourself on what you need for the space.

Think about how this room will be used and by whom.

Your deliverable: A list of activities that take place in this room, who is using the space, and special considerations for the space. Does it need

durable fabrics

multipurpose furniture

pet-friendly rug

extra seating

Is it used for watching TV

Is it used for homework?

it is a home workspace

Do you eat meals in here?
