SynopsisStop hating your house and start adoring it--40 steps to make your home express who you are and work for how you really live. Love the House You're In is about more than creating a beautiful space; it's about creating a home that reflects you and all that you find comforting and inspiring in your life. Deco-rating your home can be daunting and overwhelm-ing, but here's the secret: If you want to love your house, the inspiration and ideas need to come from you. Love the House You're In provides the tools to do just that. Through 40 actionable steps, you will: - Explore your life story: Mine your life for those things that inspire nostalgia and create a positive connection to memories, explore your family's heritage, and be conscious of how you want to live now. - Understand what you're working with: Take stock of your stuff, understand the history of your home, and get clear on the space you have. - Create an inspired action plan: Discover how to ap-proach design room-by-room, find the through line that ties the whole house together, and work in ways that empower your own ideas and creativity. - Learn the design skills that matter: Get tips on pick-ing paint colors, choosing window dressings, arrang-ing art, and more. When you start decorating your home with you as the starting point, you can create a highly personalized space that reflects your past, your future, and how you want to live today. In the process, you'll gain the confidence and inspi-ration to come up with a functional and fabulous living space that's just right for you and your life., From the introduction- This is a design book about improving your house that doesn't contain a single photograph. I am not showing you my work and telling you to copy it or emulate it or be inspired by it. There are no before and after shots here, no big reveals, no secret tips, no eye candy. This book is all about what makes you smile and feel good. This book is also about what your house looks like now, and working with that. This book is full of ideas, inquiries, and insights that will get you thinking and moving. I'm so excited to help you fill in the giant blank between "I hate my house! I'm lost" and "I love this space-it's so me.", Stop hating your house and start adoring it--40 steps to make your home express who you are and work for the way you really live Deco­rating can be daunting and overwhelm­ing, but here's the secret: If you want to love your house, the inspiration and ideas need to come from you.
