Are you making these decorating mistakes? No shame, but are you? Stay tuned to find out.

0:11.4

Welcome to decorating tips and tricks. I'm Anita Joyce with Kelly Wilkinsness. Well, I feel like if you're

0:20.5

not making mistakes,

0:21.5

you're not learning. So I don't think it's a bad thing. Just hopefully it's not a big ticket item when

0:26.0

you make a mistake. Yeah, yeah, that can be painful. Well, my first thing would just be,

0:32.5

don't decorate without a plan. You wouldn't build a house without a plan. Don't decorate without a plan. It doesn't mean you have to pull out the graph paper, but you need a plan. You wouldn't build a house without a plan. Don't decorate without a plan. Doesn't

0:38.0

need you have to pull out the graph paper, but you need a plan. Don't just do it willy and nilly.

0:43.6

It's kind of like when they say don't go to the grocery store hungry. You know, don't go shopping with an

0:48.9

itch to buy without a good plan. Well, I do plan, but I don't know that I fully flesh it out. A lot of times I'll

1:17.6

You don't, the last thing you want to do is look around and be like you have all these disjointed

1:21.7

things because one day you were feeling modern and another day you were feeling French country

1:26.5

and another day we're feeling

1:27.6

some other way and really none of the things work. So I would say you need to formulate a plan,

1:34.0

do this by going through magazines, do this by creating Pinterest boards, getting a feel for

1:39.1

what you really like and then executing it over time. Also don't decorate all in one day. That's a bad idea.

1:47.1

Right. Oh, no, that's a good idea. And I think, yeah, buying some things that can be returned.

1:53.3

If you need to, that helps. I mean, think of it as is it reversible. So if it's reversible, meaning maybe it's something easy to return,

2:04.3

then maybe you don't have to think through those decisions so much. But if it's something like a

2:08.1

big piece of furniture you're ordering online that's going to be shipped to your house,
