7 STEPS TO TAKE THE CONFUSION OUT OF DECORATING. DISCOVER YOUR DESIGN STYLE. Knowing your design style is so important when it comes to home decorating. Interior design can be so confusing.

MID CENTURY- armless seating, light-colored woods, minimal accessories, clean lines
COASTAL- relaxing vibe, light and airy, shiplap, greens & blues, seashells, whitewashed wood
ECLECTIC-mix match of all different design styles that goes well together.
SHABBY CHIC- florals, lace, distressed furniture, pastel colors
SCANDINAVIAN- earthy and natural colors, airy fabrics with lots of white, little to no pattern

I looked at flower arrangements on Pinterest and found one I loved. I kept the picture and bought the florals that I liked. I picked out a container and took it all to my local florist and he put it together exactly like I wanted . I love it and I added candle holders with candies the color to match. I’ll have to send you a picture.

Thank you for sharing your story and your journey. I have a friend who has frontal early in dementia. He is only 58 his wife is the caregiver. I have had seen several of my friends who have had to take care of parents who had dementia. It was sad but did everything she had to do with them. I would like to know more about the disease. We need more funding for this cause and more people who can get paid for helping their families with dementia.

I thought you sounded congested -- Glad to see that you're on the mend! My style (not on your list -- dare I say it?) is Country. I love Primitives (but I prefer reproduction to the really rustic, 'ratty' looking stuff). Yes, I know it's outdated. I appreciate and admire many styles, especially the Farmhouse monochromatic look...but I love colour and family heirlooms! To me, a home should be tidy and welcoming, which I think is more about the atmosphere: the smell of a candle or a pot of something cooking on the stove...even the family dog who's made her/himself at home on the couch (like in your video); something that says, "Welcome! I'm so glad you are here. Make yourself at home." We can have that in all decorating styles. Lately, home decorating has become more about "fashion" that is readily changed in a matter of years. I'm more interested in acquiring good quality pieces that stand the test of time. Thank you for encouraging each of us to discover what we love and to decorate accordingly! Great video!

Leslie, I took a style quiz from an Interior Designer and my style is Traditional Farmhouse Coastal. What? Lol. Yes, traditional. Meh, farmhouse and I loathe coastal...probably because I am in a coastal community and see it everywhere. I do however like the bright and airy colors so I sure that's where it plays in. I know what I like about traditional so I guess it's time to see what flips my switch in farmhouse if anything. Lol This was a great video. Very informative and uplifting to those of us that struggle with who we are. ❤🤗

Thank you, Leslie. These were great tips! I’ve always done my own thing with decorating rather than having to do what is in. I enjoy surrounding myself with items that have meaning to me and that I really love. Otherwise it doesn’t feel like home, it feels like someone else’s home.

Thank you for doing this video. I started bringing farmhouse elements in my house, but really didn’t like how they looked in my home. It all makes sense hearing you say why this wasn’t working. I would go a step farther and try to look at things in person after you create your Pinterest board. I am not drawn to a lot of items when I see them in person.

You are the first Utuber that has described all these styles. I’ve asked many people and never gotten an answer. I think you missed Boho. It was all very confusing to me. Different subject. I watched one of your older videos where you have the peony wall. I loved it so much I ordered it right away. I have it above my fireplace so it is the first thing you notice when you come in the front door. Thank you.

The beginning of this video described me to a T. lol. I love the modern farmhouse look to relax in at home, but the girl in me loves glam with pink, faux fur, gold and crystals. So when I go into a store, my girly-girl comes out, but it doesn't fit my house. Haha. My solution is, my craft room is all girl and my living areas are calm. I haven't looked at Pinterest in a long time, I guess it's time to check it out again. Thanks so much.

My style in England is very French country house and my place in France is very English country cottage 😳. I get so confused between the two( I know what a problem to have) but is still think I am getting thing wrong. Thank you from confused of UK and France 🇫🇷 🤦🏻‍♀️ xx

I love watching your videos. However, it's really hard to have a style with a 15 year old dog with a dog bed perched on an ottoman with dog stairs leading up to it and a rug runway all through the house because she can't walk on hard floors. Then my family room has taken on the style of a daycare with a pack n play, a jumper and a giant ball pit because I keep my great-granddaughter three days a week. I think maybe some day...I thought this was my retirement some day but maybe not! I wouldn't trade it all for the perfect house, so I'll just keep on watching and dreaming!

Obviously, by your comment, you do not need help, and that’s great. No reason for negativity for those who do.
