#FamilyFriendlyFavorites @lizcarrollinteriors I so #FamilyFriendlyFavorites @lizcarrollinteriors I so love this fun bunkroom space, for all the cousins to share! She created a great nautical themed guest room space. The brass portholes provide a fun peek-through between the bunks. The painted wood tiles and walls give a nice fresh land clean look. Each bed also has its own set of storage drawers with rope handles! 🤩
Sharing with you this week how to Decorate a Long Sharing with you this week how to Decorate a Long and Narrow Room top mistakes made when decorating them. 👍⁠ ⁠ Mistake 3: The Furniture Line Up – Don’t hold your furniture hostage and line it all up against the walls. Move it in towards the center of the room when possible, so it breaks up the bowling alley look! 😊⁠ .⁠ Click on the link in bio to see the blog post. ☝️
How to Decorate a long and narrow room! This weeks How to Decorate a long and narrow room! This weeks Decorating series. Sharing mistakes I see this week and solutions.⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Mistake 2 In the Dark with Color - A very narrow room painted in a darker color doesn’t work with dark furniture, using bright and light works much better. Cooler and lighter wall colors can open the room too. 🙌⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Swipe to see before photo 👉⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #interiordesignhouston #houstoninteriordesign #houstoninteriors #functionaldesign #markergirlhome #style #decor #homedesign #inspiration #instahome #homestyle #interiorstyling #interiors #home #interiordesign #interiorinspiration #homestyling #homedecor #decoratingtips #homeaccessories #homeaccents #livingroomdecor #livingroomideas #interiorforinspo# #livingroomdesign #livingroominspiration #livingroomstyle #smallspaces #smallspaceliving
A challenging space that I see my clients struggle A challenging space that I see my clients struggle with is one that is long and narrow. Unlike a nice squared room, a long and narrow one can feel cramped and dark. I see more mistakes made with long and narrow rooms since most people use classic decorating ideas to design them. ⁠ .⁠⠀ Here is one mistake I see. Thinking small - Using height can give the illusion that a long narrow room is wider than it appears. ⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Like in this space where we created a dramatic focal point using art on the back wall. See how it creates the illusion of a more balanced width to the length of the room.

#Makeyourmarkmonday Are you an "out of the box” #Makeyourmarkmonday Are you an "out of the box” type person when you are coming up with ideas? If you aren't and struggling then it is time to get out of the box. 🤔⁠ .⁠ When I was a kid we were bored one summer and walking around the neighborhood where there was a lot of construction, then an idea popped in my head. "Why don't we make houses out of cardboard boxes"! I ended up with this long skinny box, my friends laughed and said "Let’s see what kind of house you can get from that one”. I went home and told my mom “Guess what, I am going to make a trailer house out of a box! Got any old rags I can make curtains from?” My Mom as always was supportive of my crazy ideas. Let’s just say I had the best looking house on my street and some jealous friends! 😝⁠ .⁠ I think back quite often about that story when I’m feeling a bit challenged. It always makes me see that most any problem has a solution. The solution may not be what you thought it would be but it’s the best feeling when you do something to move forward! 🙌⁠ .⁠ So what is your cardboard box? Let’s see what you can make out of it. Or just have a little fun with your kids playing out of the box to get your imagination recharged. My son’s cardboard moment a spaceman taking off to the moon when he was little! My kids absolutely inspire me to move forward and think out of the box. 💖
