Where to Begin

One of the questions I hear most often is, "Where do I begin?"

I usually follow that question with "What do you like?"

Sounds simple, right?  Not always.  It's really hard when you are put on the spot to think of what style, color, fabric, or furniture you like.  But... it's usually pretty easy when you are out shopping to point to things that you do like... a particular chair or pattern or accessory. 

My best advice?  Take a camera along in your purse... or use the camera on your cell phone.  Take pictures of the things that strike you... it can be a room in a furniture store or a pattern of a dress.  Print up your pictures to get a collection of colors and items that you like... it will lead you in the right direction.
