Decorating Made Simple Online Course

Go From Stuck in Indecision to Confidently Decorating Your Home

This course shares the exact process I used to decorate my own home and go from this dining room:

To this dining room:

And here’s my living room before & after:

So what’s the secret? How did I learn to decorate my house without going to design school?

Well, I can tell you it took me about 10 years of trial and error to figure it out!

But, I finally realized there’s a simple, straightforward formula for creating a beautiful home that works every time.

And….

  • You don’t have to spend years learning “balance, unity and rhythm” in design school
  • You don’t have to learn how to “design a home that tells your story” (whatever that means)
  • You don’t have to be born with the “interior design gene” (I wasn’t!)
  • And you don't have to spend a fortune to make your home beautiful

The way I decorate, you just need to know 3 things:

1. How To Pick A Color Palette

This is the foundation of decorating your room. And not to worry, you don’t have to learn the color wheel or pick colors out of the sky yourself. We’ll use an inspiration piece instead.

Once your color palette is in place, it will tell you what the other colors in the room should be, and make it easy to select the right decor that all looks great together.

2. The Design Principles

These are the things that will make it look like you know what you’re doing!

We’ll cover how to choose the right size for furniture, area rugs, and lamps. We’ll talk about what size throw pillows to use and how many you need.

And my favorite part, we’ll learn how to properly hang your curtains and window treatments. Plus, clever ways to install them to do cool things like make your ceilings feel taller and make your windows look bigger.

3. How To Style

Styling is one of the most important parts of creating a beautiful room, but often the most overlooked. By adding accessories like a bowl of fruit, a stack of books, or a vase of flowers to your room, you’re making your house feel like a home.

Styling is also what I see DIY decorators getting the most intimidated by (right up there with picking paint colors!).

But just like the rest of the process, for styling there’s a system so you’ll know exactly what accessories you’re shopping for and how to arrange them like a pro. No more empty bookshelves giving you anxiety.

How To Visualize Your Room

Now that we have our 3-step process down, we’ll take what we’ve learned and design a room together.

To help illustrate this, I’ll show you my favorite design software (I promise, it’s super easy and not techy!). I’ll also give you a few other options to visualize your room that you can just do with your phone.

BONUS #1: Shopping Guide & Resource List

You’ll also get a list of my go-to stores for home decor shopping. Wondering who has the best throw pillow inserts? It’s on the list. Where to find a great selection of accessories for styling? It’s on the list. The best place for affordable but well-made white curtains? On the list!

BONUS #2: Classic & Timeless Style Guide

I’ve also gathered all my top tips for classic home decor that will stand the test of time. From the most timeless furniture styles to the best hardwood flooring colors, I’ve got you covered.

Q: Do you teach how to design kitchens and bathrooms?
