Design like an Interior Designer....A Simple Guide to Interiors

[@dev5963]

Great advice. I'm not a professional but do it myself. Layouts are critical since you can waste an immense amount of money on something that doesn't fit. For those of us who struggle imaging volume, I use cardboard boxes to approximate the item. I don't create a formal mood board but do something similar. As I'm working on a room, I keep a ziplock plastic bag with photos, paint samples and fabric swatches and take it everywhere (or have in the car). You never know when you may come across something. Also keep a tape measure nearby.

Definitely! Layouts are so important to help you get the balance of the space right ☺️ love all these tips! Keeping the samples with you is definitely a great idea 🙌🏻

Keep the videos coming!!! I love dark and moody but struggling to pull it all together…..what color are your kitchen cabinets

[@Alana.Miller]

Aw thank you so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying them so far 🥰🙌🏻 the kitchen is painted in studio green from farrow and ball ☺️ I’m the opposite and find neutral schemes harder to pull together 😂🙈

Thank you so much 🥰 I hope they help with your projects 🙌🏻

[@carolebuckle7977]

Great tips Alana. I notice you have dark walls and it does seem to really make your pieces pop. May I ask what age is your home & did that sway your wall colour choices? Just curious 🧐🇬🇧xx

[@Alana.Miller]

Thank you so much 🥰 The House is Edwardian and I definitely took inspiration from the rich tones they used along with the high ceilings allowing me to be brave enough to try using them ☺️

@@Alana.Miller it looks very chic & enchanting 🖤
