Now You Can Decorate Your Home and Eat Your Cake Too

It's that time of year to start celebrating, whether it's a graduation, a memorial day bbq, or a pool party, it's time to get your home fashionably ready for guests. With just a few tweaks, your place can resemble a cool NY loft or an island resort. The trick is to pick a theme and choose colors that reflect your personality.

My plan for my home is to incorporate more of a summer feeling to the place. I'm going for a "California Sunshine" look. Partly because I'm obssessed with LA right now, and also because I love bright colors.

I'm going to get some new fabric and make covers for my throw pillows, and I would like to buy some lanern lights to hang in the dining room (which we don't even dine in and just use as an office).

There are so many cool stores and sites to help get you started. You can check out one of my favs ikea, also a new favorite to Ask Drew (he almost bought the whole store :->) or check out Husque brand by Marc Harrison, and there's www.2modern.com to name a few.

Whichever way you decide to decorate, make sure you're having fun while doing it. And don't forget about the brands that are beautiful and looking out for the environment and atmosphere. They get double cool points from me.
