Express yourself

Photo: Rodger Cummins
Tonight while I was taking a little break from work, I headed on over to Diane Bergeron's blog and found an article where she gives some fantastic decorating advice! She explains that her philosophy on decorating is that people should express themselves in their space rather than decorating based on the style of the home they live in, or based on current trends in the market. "...you want people to know what you're about when they walk into your home, and feel like they might know you a little better." I couldn't agree more, and I thought it might be a nice reminder for those of you who are currently working on decorating projects:) If you'd like to check out the article click here, and for more pics of Diane's beautiful home click here ;) (Ps, hi Diane and Belinda!!)

Thanks so much for sharing this article! I'm all about self expression--and really want to help my clients have homes that reflect THEM not me. This was a nice reminder. Gracias!
