We're back from our summer break!!! It was a bit extended because Kelly was helping her MIL and Anita moved her mom to Texas from Oklahoma. Summer is officially over and we are very excited to be back and talking about fall decor!
Our best advice is to go natural and simple. We don't like the idea of spending a fortune of decor that you just use once. If you are going to buy something for the fall, invest in something worth keeping and using every year.
Be sure to check out Anita's Cedar Hill Farmhouse wallpaper collection on the Cedar Hill Farmhouse website HERE.

Less is definitely more - more style, more curated, more enjoyment. Today we teach you how to increase your style but reducing your stuff!
A few of the key points from today's episode -
A house overflowing with stuff (even good stuff) can be stressful.
Don't buy stuff just because it's cheap and on trend.
Steer clear of trends unless they really speak to you.
Collect things you love
Don't buy things just because they are the right color.
Don't buy things just because your decor has a 'hole' in it.

If it's isn't fun, you're not doing it right. Decorating is a fun, exciting experience, at least it should be. If it stresses you, then sit down, relax and take a listen.
Don't worry about your house being perfect! Embrace the imperfections and focus on what you love about your house. Reduce clutter, give yourself some grace, and complete those unfinished house projects that are driving you nuts.

STEP 8: MEASURE AND CREATE A FLOOR PLAN
Now that you know your needs and wants, it’s time to pop these items in a floor plan to see which ones make the cut. Use graph paper and pen or an app. I use Sweet Home 3D. to make a floor plan to scale, and start dropping furniture pieces in.
Your deliverable: A floor plan (or a few floor plan options) showing how you want your space to flow with your furniture arranged on the plan.
