Get The Interior Design Look – My Top Tips (Plus a Free Download!)

When it comes to creating a beautiful home, it's sometimes the small interior design details that make the biggest impact.

Interior design isn’t about following trends — it’s about designing a space that feels lived-in, loved, and truly yours.

Whether you're styling a new home or refreshing a tired room, I hope these interior styling tips will help you transform your space quickly and effortlessly — no matter your budget or design style.

Here’s a little preview:

• Plump Up Your Cushions: Switch out sad, saggy cushion inserts for plump feather fillers for an instant upgrade.

• Work That Woodwork: Your skirting boards don’t have to be white! Matching them to your wall colour can work wonders.

• Move Beyond Grey: While grey has been a safe choice for years, choosing colours that lift your mood can transform a space.

• Choose Curtains That Elevate Your Space: Full-length curtains add a sense of height, drama and luxury.

• Upgrade Your Sockets and Switches: It’s a small detail — but ditching white plastic for something beautiful makes a real difference.

• Feature Walls — Should You?: The right feature wall can define a space, but needs careful planning.

• Layer Your Lighting: Lighting sets the mood — and it’s all about combining ambient, task and accent lights.

• Savvy Storage Solutions: Tidy spaces feel calmer. Great storage keeps the clutter hidden and life feeling easier.

• Style Your Shelves: Open shelves are a brilliant way to add personality (without the mess!) with some simple styling tips.

• Rethink Your Furniture Placement: Just pulling furniture slightly off the walls can instantly make a room feel more considered and stylish.
