Carrie gave an exclusive interview to Shirin Yadegar of LA Mom Magazine, sharing ideas and solutions for common redecorating situations.
Highlights from the interview:
“When taking on a kids decorating project, allow your kids to be a part of the process. Kids are full of creativity and enthusiasm. Allowing them to be a part of the planning, shopping and work gives them the feeling that their opinion counts. Creating a budget and careful planning at the beginning with your kids, will give them a better understanding of what choices they can make during the process. Allowing them to be a part of creating a space that is a reflection of their own personal style and creativity and one that they can continue to evolve and grow into will give both the parent and child great pride.”
“I think a room should be a reflection of one’s personality however, when it comes to color I always try to encourage my clients with kids to pick a color combination that has longevity and suit a range of styles. Choosing a more neutral wall color allows kids to be more creative with graphic sheet sets, window coverings, pillows, and accessories. The layering pieces can bring color to a room but can easily be interchanged with evolving tastes.”
