“word to the wise” wednesday: lindsay reid

I’m a trend-bucker, but I have Lucite furniture, coral and suzanis — probably the three most played-out trends in decor.  I can’t let the fact that something is popular deter me from making it part of a design and my life.  But ask me in two months, and I may say I need a break from coral.

    See I get that... and since I'm not a millionaire (yet :-) ) I try to choose things I don't get tired of too fast, so I don't have to change things around my house all the time. Besides, I love having things I can easily live for my whole life with. Have a great day! xo Luciane at HomeBunch.com
