One of my missions on the blog is to share design advice and decorating tips to help you decorate your home in style. A few years ago I started a series called Design Guide which covers a range of topics related to design and decorating. Today’s Best of ConfettiStyle post highlights many of the design guides I’ve written so far. I hope these design guides give you the information and confidence you need to make your decor dreams come true.
