Find your decorating style

Following from my last post, a few people emailed me wanting to know how to go about choosing a style for their own home. Frankly that is a difficult decision. My gut reaction is to advise people to go with what your heart sings. But then that begs the question: what if you don't know what your heart sings or if it sings to every style? LOL.

As I mentioned in my last post, my own style has evolved into what I now know I absolutely love and what suits and reflects everyone in our family. How did I come to this realisation? Honestly, from reading and devouring home interior magazines. I soon found looks that I liked, simply by being exposed to them and seeing them put together professionally by an interior artist. From there, I developed my own confidence and started to play with looks. Looks which I think suit my family to a tee. Looks which people who know me know that that is "so me"!

Now, if you don't want to spend all that money buying interior magazines (and they can be quite pricey) and want an even more straight forward (and free) way to finding your decorating style, perhaps an online quiz is for you. Try this out and let me know how you go. Perhaps it will reveal something about your own style you did not even know existed.  Have fun folks finding your "look"!
