Some of Her Popular Designs to Sample

Easy Halloween Vignette

Americans love Halloween and try to create memories during that period. Drawing inspiration from her daughter’s love for the season, she created a design themed, ‘Easy Halloween Vignette.’ Creating such thematic designs goes a long way to rekindle memories, create bonds, and improve the home’s warmth.

She recommends the following steps while creating such a design.

• Use of thematic crops, imagery, or symbols like the pumpkin.
• Use pieces of different sizes in the display to improve the visual impression.
• Incorporate different textures and materials on the items.

Despite the reduced preference for seasonal themes, she recommends them create a welcome break to home décor.

Refresh4less with Kirkland

During the summer or holiday season, you may find plenty of visitors coming over your place. To welcome the visitors, you’ll need slight adjustments to your home design. Visiting a well-stocked store like Kirkland is a good start for the search. Additionally, identifying the right store reduces shopping trips.

Hayley Smith found unique items like shoe racks, trays, cloth hooks, fan basket bowl, among other items in Kirkland. Shopping offers you plenty of new ideas you can try out. Hayley was amazed by how a small table worth less than $100 transformed her living space; it also acted as a shoe rack and extra decorative space.

Having a stylish home is a proud aspect of your life that can invite guests’ confidence. Getting inspiration, ideas, and recommendations from a trusted source speed up the transformation process. A House with Books contains pictures, links, posts, and recommendations to guide you in the process.
