    There’s not a whole lot I know about decorating, so I could really use this book. My walls are still all white, and I’m probably breaking a million unwritten style rules that I know nothing about. I’d love to win!

    Thanks for offering this book. WHat I need in decorating advice is that nothing looks cozy and homey. Everything looks staged, and I cannot take it to the comfort level.

    I could use some inspiration! I have a hard time sticking with a “theme”…I always find lots of stuff that is pretty but doesn’t match! I am always welcome to new ideas! I need to work on decorating so badly! 🙂 Count me in!
