Always mix up the textures.
Move things around so that you have opposites in the same room (eg. metal, wool, wood, ceramic)
Too many hard surfaces (or soft ones) will make a room less interesting.
When in doubt, go with organic accessories and colors
Always go bolder than you think you should.
Small patterns and scaled down furniture will actually make your home look smaller.
Put something in your room just because you love it.
Your taste is unique to you, own your ideas.
Look for everyday small appliances that reflect your style. When you replace them don't automatically buy generic ones. Do a little research and see if you can find ones that are both functional and decorative.
