A well-to-do man once told me he'd observed that women who didn't have a lot of money often had the most style because they had to work at it. While a rich woman could walk in a store and let the window dresser create her outfit, a poor woman had to work with what she had, creating style on the cheap. I think this man was right, and his stylish observation applies to home decorating as well. Anyone can have a fashionable home with a lot of money, but it takes real style development to make a house look good with what you have. Often, the poor stylish home is better looking than one a decorator has made to order. No matter the budget, use your imagination first to find a style that reflects the people who live in your home. You can always add rich details later. Or not.
