Description

Welcome to Home, Addressed! In the first two episodes, we learned about each other’s style backgrounds and then tackled our existing stuff and how to edit out what's not working. In this third episode, we discuss strategies for cutting through the overwhelming amount of inspiration in the world as you continue to define and refine your personal style at home. 
Here are the 3 takeaways from this episode: 

Figure out a handful (3 or so) words that describe a general feeling reflective of your style. 
Seek out non-digital inspiration in your daily life and when traveling away from your hometown. 
Use Pinterest and Instagram intentionally, following the thread the algorithms provide and being open-minded to new, different sources and styles. 

Our favorite non-digital sources for inspiration: 
*Local museums, shops and restaurants with great design
*Go on walks and look at exterior architecture, looking up and down as you move through the world (fantastic tile and ceiling treatments abound!)
*Sign up for holiday house tours or other opportunities to tour beautiful homes in your area.
*Estate sales! Just stepping inside older homes and seeing how people live can provide inspiration.
