>> really? >> jewelry, all over the place. >> you find a tassel and throw it on there. >> personalization. >> you're just sprucing it up. >> small touches that make the space feel like it has an extra layer. >> if decor can be storage, that's a good thing, right? let's move over to this farm table. and you're incorporating nature, which is wonderful. >> one of the things about nature is it's inexpeninexpensi.you can buy flowers at the
grocery store. and you can do a series of them. air plants. geodes. it feels assembled over time. if you're not spending a lot of money, you don't want to have an instant interior. >> one of the things we believe, is your space should not feel precious. we like a dining room table. everybody comes there. your coffee, your magazines. do your homework. >> we have meetings there. we have a 2-year-old.
there's crayons all over our table. >> exactly. can't be too fancy. i did notice. i have an eye for detail, you have the mismatched chairs, which is fun. >> we tried to get that by you, savannah. >> i'm on my game this morning. >> your awake. if you can find a pair of chairsfor less money than a set of 12. these are mid century and we paired them with a vintage farm table. we think it looks good.
>> how do you -- there's mismatch that looks good. and there's mismatch that's justmismatched. >> looks like you raided your grandmother's house. how do you make it work together? >> if you go around the objects that are important to you. and the truth is, have fun with design. take some risks. use things in a way you never thought of, a text tile or rugs all over the place in different patterns. >> and play with the age of
things. that's anything. everybody, when they start to design their space, they buy everything new. go to vintage finds, flea markets, estate sales. things with more character. >> we're standing on one of the trends, to layer rugs. tell me about this. >> this is his favorite thing. >> i'm bad at this. >> people think that rugs are expensive. and there's a lot of great rugs out there that are not extensive.
by layering them, especially smaller sizes, not only can you refresh your space, but you can change it with seasons. >> move over to our final scene here. and looking at wall art. thinking that's expenexpensive. you do a 3d thing. >> think of objects as artwork. it doesn't have to be an expensive painting or a photograph. these are wickered mirrors. if you group objects together, that's a strong state. we use that on our show. all these tips and tricks are
things we want everybody to know. design shouldn't be scary. and you should be able to update your home for spring in a beautiful way without spending a ton of hundred and panicking. >> and you have the plants, incorporating nature. how do you make the flowers look good like that? >> that's your production staff. >> you're supposed to pack them tight together? >> you did a wonderful job. we thank you. we buy flowers from the grocery
