Personal Decorating Style

We've been in our first home for almost three years now, and during that time, I feel like my personal tastes and decorating style have changed quite a bit.  If I were to redecorate right now, every room would probably look completely different.  And in addition to my changing tastes, I promise I think I have multiple personalities when it comes to decorating! ;)  I love so many different looks, styles, colors, etc.  For example, I think all of these living rooms pictured below are amazing, and there's quite a range of styles and colors going on! :) 








Now, there are definitely some styles, trends, and looks that I just don't like.  And then there are others that I look at and say, "I like that, but I'm not sure I would ever want to do it in my own home."  Can you relate?  For some reason, it's much easier for me to help other people with their homes than it is to make decisions about mine! :)  Decorating a home can seem daunting, and identifying your personal design style is a great place to start!  I've always said that my personal style is transitional, but I thought it would be interesting to see what my results on a style quiz would be.  So, according to HGTV.com, my personal style is "Classic Casual, AKA Transitional. A mix of contemporary and traditional. Usually updated, graceful, enduring."  Interested to see what your personal decorating style is?  Take the quiz at: http://my.hgtv.com/style-finder/stylefinder.esi?qid=1&returl=null

Tuesday's Featured Space

I fell in love with this living room the first time I saw it on HGTV a few years ago.  Joi of Nuestra Vida Dulce, http://www.daveandjoi.blogspot.com/, has also been featured on the Nate Berkus Show, Design Sponge, Houzz, and many more.  Be sure to head on over to her blog to see more amazing makeovers and DIY projects.  This room definitely proves that you can make a neutral room interesting and fun by adding pops of color and various textures and patterns! :)



So inspiring! :)
