We start off with carpets.

Make sure your rugs are big enough.

Use a rug pad. Kelly tells you why HERE .

Think, "how do I add fabric" to a vignette. Also think about small art in frames, something organic, and beautiful brown and white transferware!

Work on a vignette until it looks right to you. Make sure you don't crowd your fall vignette!
