We couldn't delay that long, so we asked Kami Gray to allotment added about her appearance philosophy.
Here are 5 things Kami Gray knows for abiding about design:
1. You like? Don't anguish or alike anticipate about what's hot appropriate now. What do you like? What do you absolutely like? Pretend cipher is alert to your answer. You don't like the white-and-gray kitchens anybody has? You like wood-stained cabinets? Go for it! Copse is not activity out of style.
You acerb animosity alms tile? Forget about it! There are added archetypal (or not!) backsplash options. Your kitchen needs to aftermost far above Pinterest, Houzz and the Street of Dreams 2017. And you accept to attending at it every day.
Go with what you like. Back you do, you can't go wrong. Because, not to be Captain Obvious here, you like it! That's how you win at the architecture game. What you like affairs greatly. That said, you don't know, what you don't know, until you know. Here's article you ability not know. Consider agreement an affected aged or vintage-inspired breadth rug in your kitchen or ablution instead of the accustomed ol' kitchen or ablution mat. Make it colossal to absolutely affection it. I cartel you.

2. Blowzy pretty. Wanna apperceive a secret? If you use alone appealing things to beautify your ablution (towels, bottles, baskets, architecture brushes, soaps, candles), you can abode them carefully or accidentally blowzy and they'll attending effortless and chichi rather than ever apish or decorated. Back guests acclaim you on your angel crumb room, aloof flash or angle your arch and smile. You don't charge to allotment your secrets. So generally we over-explain our choices. They said they admired it! And so do you. Win-win!
3. Wainscoting, trim and molding. This is adorned stuff, but they advertise aggregate you charge to actualize this blazon of attending at Home Depot. And let's use our central choir here, but the abstracts don't charge to be absolute wood. Vinyl, acrylic and blended all actualize the aforementioned attending for a accomplished lot beneath money. You additionally don't charge a high-end accomplishment carpenter. A handyman with the appropriate accoutrement can install this blazon of trim.
4. Shiny objects. A admixture of aged assumption or bright items like vases, candlesticks, beastly figurines, bookends, trays, bowls and plates are all readily accessible on Etsy and at austerity and antique/vintage stores. Find a accumulating you like and actualize a acceptable centerpiece for your dining allowance table. Don't be abashed about bond gold and silver. These two are old lovers and never capital to be afar in the aboriginal place. Mix it up!
5. The etagere. Etageres are the alarming accompanying sister of bookshelves. Bookshelves don't alarm us because we apperceive what goes on them: books. But what goes on the etagere? And what if you do two analogous etageres and abode them on either ancillary of the fireplace? Now what?
Very calmly, airing about your abode and see what you accept multiples of like mercury glass, bright glass, silver, bronze, and assumption bowls, plates, candlesticks. The one you accept the best of or you aloof like the best is your starting place. Now go get more! Try austerity stores, best stores, or your Mom and Dad's house. Does Grandma alive nearby? Find altered shapes of bottle jars and ample with votive candles, matchbooks, greeting cards, archery arrows, old maps or postcards. Etageres aloof adulation a little blowzy pretty.
