Does Your Home Pass The Match-up Test?

If your friends had to match you up with your living space (assuming that they’d never seen it before), would they get it right, or way wrong?

Do you match your home?

You’re one-of-a-kind. You’re unique. There is no one else like you. You’ve got a big personality and too many wonderfully distinguishing traits to count. Does your home?

Your friends should walk in and say: “Yup, I’m in the right place. There’s no way this home could belong to anyone other than you.”

If your home doesn’t pass the match-up test, there’s something fundamentally wrong.

I know you value individuality and originality. These values are reflected in your career choice, your personal style, the way you spend your free time and the people you choose to surround yourself with.

Why abandon these values when it comes to the one place on earth where you get to be 100% YOU, 100% of the time?

If your home doesn't pass the match-up test, tell me why in the comments. Are you stuck in a decorating rut? Are you unsure of how to begin or how pull together what you've already started? Lay it on me… I want to help!
