LEIGH AND ALY’S TIPS:

• White is a great neutral canvas, but avoid a sterile space by incorporating texture!

• Marry design + function.

• You’re not limited in color with kids if you find the right materials.

• Be patient and trust the design process.

• Dream up a cohesive vision for your home.

• There ARE designers out there for every budget- don’t be intimidated to reach out to designers in your area.

• Prioritize what you invest in.

• Check out flea markets for affordable pieces. The ladies are also fans of Target and Etsy.

TIPS FOR CREATING A TIMELESS SPACE:

• Pick a timeless/neutral palette.

• For flooring Aly suggests a nice medium wood, like a white oak. “A wood that looks like it’s been there for all time”.

• Cabinetry is all about function!

• Countertops are about functionality as well- choose a material that works for your family. Organic color and texture.

• Purity, simplicity and organization is so crucial.

The 7:55 mark: Leigh mentioned SketchUp and Aaron fell in love.
