It's time for our September 
Declutter Challenge! Get your home ready for the holidays now and enjoy a stress-free season. 🎄

Here are some tips to get you started:

🧹Where do I start?
Tackle your counters first! Kitchen and bathroom counters are often magnets for clutter. Clearing 
these high-traffic areas will give you a quick win and make a big visual impact.

🧹How can I declutter quickly?
Make a plan! Go room by room and create a categorized list of what needs to be done. Give yourself a deadline to stay on track and avoid feeling overwhelmed.

🧹How do I make a decluttering checklist?
Break it down. Go through each room and list 
items to donate, sell, recycle, or throw away. Work 
one area at a time at your own pace.

🧹Decluttering vs. Uncluttering?

Welcome back!  Let's delve into the details that create the WOW effect.

💙Details Are a Strategy, Not an Afterthought
I tell my design coaching clients this all the time: The center of the room is prime real estate. (Yes, even more than that Instagrammable wall moment.) A well-chosen tray or perfectly scaled accessory on a coffee table can balance the whole room and ground the design like magic.

And don’t get me started on “gesture-level” details – wallpapered panels behind a dark sofa, unexpected ceiling details, contrasting trim that reframes 
a space.  These elements tell your client: “Your designer didn’t phone this in.”

You’re not decorating. You’re curating.

💙Real Talk from Me to You
The truth? Your client may never realize it was that Greek key repeat or that leather piping that 
made them feel “oh wow, I love this room”… but YOU will. And that’s why they hired a pro.

You already have the eye. Now make sure every detail has a purpose and is pulling its weight. Don’t overwork. Don’t throw glitter. Just layer with intention.

You’ve got this, lovely! I’m cheering you on every 
step of the way.

Let’s talk about the real difference between “nice room” and “jaw-dropping design” for a moment. Spoiler alert – it’s not the big stuff alone. 
It’s the intentional little details that elevate, polish, 
and pack a visual punch. I’m talking about those expertly layered flourishes that don’t scream for attention, but whisper, “this was done by a pro.”

Let’s break it down…

💙Custom Pieces = Built-In Luxury

Nothing says “designer touch” like something no one else can source. When I coach my SDBA pros, I 
always stress the power of custom: a unique fabric layout, a chair back that repeats a motif from the drapery, or a statement finish that threads through 
the room like a quiet signature. Don’t overlook the impact of echoing a pattern or material in multiple pieces. Consistency = rhythm. Rhythm = visual calm.

You don’t have to start from scratch every time, but when you design or modify a piece intentionally, it injects your fingerprint into the project. 
Clients may not always articulate why it feels high-end… but they’ll feel it.

💙Rhythm Isn’t Just for Music
Design rhythm is a secret weapon, my friend.

It’s how you lead the eye and build flow. Want a room to feel finished and cohesive? Use color, shape, line, and texture to set up a cadence. Think: banding on drapes, a wrapped edge on a rug, a subtle repeat of metal finishes across zones. One of my favs? A nail-head detail on a stair runner. Small move. Big flex.

Strategic rhythm helps avoid “design hiccup syndrome” (yes, that’s a thing) – where each piece feels unrelated to the next. You’re building a symphony, not a playlist.

Come back in my next post to learn what other 
details create the WOW effect.

a client project, HomeGoods can be a secret weapon for design pros (and savvy DIYers!).

Need to complete a room or style a photoshoot? This is where unexpected finds and great deals live! ✨

Here’s how the savvy pros do it:

Lamps & Lamps! Luxury lamp prices are soaring (no pun intended!), but lamps are non-negotiable for setting mood. HomeGoods can hide unique bases and textures. (Psst... spotting knock-offs is our superpower!)

Mirrors: Brightening, stylish, and room-expanding! Perfect for adding aesthetic flair, especially when artwork isn't the fit. Just check quality!

Artwork for Secondary Spaces: Hallways, powder rooms, guestrooms – HomeGoods can surprise you with hidden gems that look like high-end abstracts or folk art.

Ready-Made Throw Pillows: An instant, budget-
friendly refresh for any couch or bed. A steal 
compared to custom costs, great for quick style injections and photoshoots!

Bathroom Accessories: Soap dishes, trash cans... these add up fast! HomeGoods can be hit-or-miss, 
but often worth the hunt (just skip the refillable soap pumps – trust us on that one! 😉).

Now that you’re armed with these tips, whether 
you’re one of my profession lovelies or one of my DIY lovelies…go forth and shop at HomeGoods but do it WISELY! 🛍️

The bathroom doesn’t have to be 
just a place for quick showers or stop in—it can be a truly luxurious experience with a few strategic design flourishes.

If you’re looking to elevate your bathroom design, 
here are some of our favorite ways to deliver a high-end feel.

🖼️Art: Add Personality to the Walls
Art in the bathroom is usually overlooked, yet it’s a design power move!

An immediate gesture that adds character and style, art is a must. Whether a textural statement, a photograph, a vintage print, or even an unusual 
mirror with an unusual shape or frame – go bold for easy sophistication.

Warning: Make sure the artwork can withstand humidity – watercolors are a no-no in a high-humidity space.

💡Light Fixtures: Brighten Up with Style
Lighting fixtures are always a massive design opportunity and one I don’t take lightly. Clients will spend $$$$ on the cabinetry but light fixtures will be the first things people notice. 😊

Consider style-broadcasting pendants or sconces for soft lighting around the mirror or a room-defining overhead fixture.

Think shape, scale and material/texture. Do you want to lean into the textures already in the bath, or bring 
in something new and unexpected?

Here in this powder room, we opted for striking 
crystal pendants in keeping with the elegance of this powder room, but selected something that also used  unexpected materials like wood and rope.

Come back in our next post to learn of other key 
strategies to transform your bathroom to the next-level.
