Slow Style Home: Decorating Personal, Meaningful Interiors

You want a home that’s uniquely you. One that reflects your passions, values and lifestyle. And you want to create one on your own, without having to hire a designer, breaking the bank, or hurting the planet. The challenge is that there are too many voices telling you what trend to jump on, what rules you must follow, and what “beautiful” looks like. Plus, you don’t want to scrap everything you own and start all over. It’s hard to know how to wrap your arms around this big, important concept called “home!” On this podcast, you’ll learn from the experts exactly why some rooms work (and others don’t), how to master a mix of styles and preferences when you have a bunch of them jumbled together, and inspiration for being brave and taking the creation of your dream home into your own hands.

Want me to stop in your hometown on the book tour? Leave me a message with your thoughts on where I should hold an event (a bookshop, gallery, antiques store, garden, historic home, etc ), and your contact info.

Style, Grief, Creativity and Diversity With Beth Diana Smith Apr 04, 2022

Show notes

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

The interview you're about to hear ended up being very personal. Not only does designer Beth Diana Smith talk with us about healing from the death of her mom and how she had to become a full fledged adult when most of us are still clueless 20-year-olds, but we also talk about her work with the Black Artists and Designers Guild, which opened up a candid conversation about being a black woman working in the field of interior design. I really appreciate how open Beth was about all of these things. And along the way, we also talked about stuff we love, like mixing styles and fearless decorating. So this is a good one, folks! Let's get started with Beth.

Have you wondered what it's like to renovate an old home? Not just renovate, but actually live in an hold home while you're working on it?

Fearless Decorating with Ariene Bethea Mar 14, 2022

Show notes

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

My guest today is the perfect example of someone who has taught herself how to train her eye and create a signature style. Ariene Bethea is the owner of the antique shop, Dressing Rooms Interiors, in Charlotte, NC, which has been getting a lot of attention from interior designers and magazines. But her home is just as compelling as the shopping experience she's created. In fact, the way she so thoughtfully brings disparate objects together in beautiful ways is one of the reasons why she started offering in-person design services, in addition to curating her shop. In this conversation, we talk about her use of color, her collections, and how, in the case of one client, she applied her maximalist style to a minimalist's home. Let's go!

When I first saw Philip Mitchell's book, "Collected Interiors: Rooms That Tell a Story," I knew I had found a master of the mix.

How A Quilt Makes A Home with Jen Kingwell Jan 10, 2022

Show notes

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

I've wanted to interview many Australian designers but haven't been able to make the difference in time zones work. Until now! You're about to hear my conversation with Jen Kingwell, fabric and pattern designer, quilter, and now author. She's just written a book called Quilt Recipes, and I fell in love with the gorgeous photos showing how her quilts are used in interiors. Not only can you follow her patterns and design ideas to make your own quilts from this book, she also includes recipes from her mom who was a terrific baker. When you think about it, it's the perfect combination for a cozy winter day... curling up with a soft handmade quilt and a sweet treat. You'll have to check out the photos on the show notes page of this episode to really get a sense of the feeling this book has inspired in me! Ok, here's Jen.

From Cookie Cutter to Uniquely Yours with Marian Parsons Jan 03, 2022

I'm very happy to have Marian Parsons open up this new season of Style Matters for us. You may also know her as Miss Mustard Seed, which is what she called herself when she started a blog over 10 years ago. From the blog came other business pursuits such as creating a line of milk paint, creating fabric and product designs, and selling her original artwork. She's just come out with a new book, "Feels Like Home: Transforming your home from uninspiring to uniquely yours," and her approach to design completely aligns with what we believe here at Style Matters. And that is that your story is your style. Let's hear from Marian.
