Tell us a little (or a lot) about your home and the people who live there: We are a loud and fun family, and our home reflects that. We love music and incorporate it where we can. Lots of vibrant colours and patterns. We also have a love for vintage things. We like to show our different personalities in our decor.

We are kind of different in a world of grey, and we like to show it in our unique decorating style. We love to be bright!

Describe your home’s style in 5 words or less: Colorful, warm, vintage, modern, creative

What is your favorite room and why? The living room is my favorite room. It is spacious and full of color; it has a warm feeling. It also has posters and setlists from different concerts that bring memories. Our couch is large. and we frequently have full family cuddles or video game sessions!

What’s the last thing you bought (or found!) for your home? We bought quite a few things as of late! Our rugs and our sofa are from Wayfair. We also bought some tables (this one and these) clock, etc.

Any advice for creating a home you love? Put your love into it, pour memories into it, and don’t be afraid to be yourself. Mix vintage in there to add more of a warm feeling.
