As an interior design writer and trends, I constantly investigate the best home design and shaping tips. I am also happy enough to talk to some of the best interior designers in the game and see some really beautiful spaces.

However, when it comes to my home, I fought to find my style and bring him to life. I kept chasing the moment I’d finish the space and felt like I’d really scored ga-Too successful, I will notice.

It is until I have received a simple friend advice that transformed my approach to decorating home.

She said wisely: Finding your interior design style takes time; Trust the process and enjoy the trip.

Pressure to get it for the first time ”

For some idea that they will find their design style need time (and exercise) can seem obvious. That’s just like anything else, isn’t it? Practice makes perfect or something closely.

However, for chronic pesders of perfection like me, this idea is not intuitive, and that can be quite deep.

Ask any interior design Pro, and they made their right share of design mistakes over the years. How to learn and grow.

In the end, it is important to not allow fear that you will stop you “wrong” choice to start traveling to the shaping of the space you truly love. They’re big chances, you won’t get “right” for the first time and that’s okay.

Why a rushing process is rarely working

This min mandate helped me in several ways. First I stopped criticizing myself for “mistakes” in my past; Instead, I can admit that they crossed stones to help me bring me closer to the home that really feels authentic.

For example, about five years ago, my husband and I finished the great reconstruction of the primary bedroom in our new home. At that time, I was relatively new in the world of interior design, and I had no idea what I liked or what I wanted. The modern village house for the farm house was in Trend, and I liked the way they looked, so I decided to rely strongly in that aesthetics.

I liked to install bold black accents, which led to the decision to paint black emphasis in our bedroom, install Matte Black Hotels everywhere and upgrade hardware.

I held the walls with a sharp white, and we set up warm laminate nuts to add some warmth. Admittedly, the decision was a bit impulsive and lacked detailed research.

Today, Irk-in-room design is, and I am already being prepared to take full refresh (much on the disposal of my husband). Menu, space is lacking warmth and character, and the worst of all, does not match the rest of our home or its architectural details.

I’ve learned since then I don’t like a modern farmhouse so much for my home! Frustrating? Yes. But the necessary growing pain, and a heavy lesson learned: take time, and don’t rush in style you are not 100% sure about it just because it’s a trend.

Learning to live in “Between”

Taking time to find your design style means that your home can be figuratively stuck in Limbo for a while. This idea was painful to me in the beginning, but in reality there is flexibility and joy in acceptance “between”.

You can experiment, you really think that things before you commit, ask friends and family for advice and replace things as needed. Shales of perfection: Don’t be afraid of each other, there can be a surprising release if you let him go.

What I would say to all just began to design space

If you feel a flooded idea to find your home design style I was there. My biggest getting from my friend’s advice was literally slow down the process.

For example, if I plan to rewrite the room, I will really take your time by choosing colors. I left on the walls on the walls on the walls for a few weeks before I decide on the shade – something I would never do before.

I will also probably test a piece of decor in the room and remove it if it just doesn’t work. Your decorations decor should not be final on the first attempt.

Finally, I removed the pressure to finish things quickly and I spent more research times, looking for inspiring photos and visualize how I want my space to look.

Taking time to talk to friends and family can be useful. I can surprise you with a tips or hard-learned lesson to help you in the long run.

In the end, creating the home you love, it is not about being perfect – it is about release to grow with you, with one thoughtful, imperfect and authentic step at once. So, from one rookie design to another, to assure you: the finding of your design style takes time, so trust the process and enjoy the way.
