I have a meeting with the owner of a local design showroom tomorrow morning. She’s a sistah AND she makes house calls (for a fee of course). I’ll do a link back shout out AFTER our meeting. I trust her. She’s VERY creative. But can she really feng shui me ?
That’s what I’ve been looking for. Someone whose design aesthetic I heart heart heart, but also someone who can show me the LOVE and the SUCCESS in furniture design and placement. I came into the showroom about a month ago. Snapping pics, turning my head to the side, visualizing, and designing on a dime, a quarter twenty cents (cause I am on a budget. I’m not sure of the exact number yet. But I’m on a budget).
One of the things that fascinates me about design is that color, aromatherapy, and where furniture is placed (among other things) CAN facilitate a life change. This sounds crazy but I want to design my house around the man I will meet, fall in love with, and marry. I know I know. You are saying Comeback YOU HAVE LOST IT FOR REAL. But have I ? Everyday we as women go out on the town and dress up for men (but also for women but that’s another blog post) we put on the cutest heels, the baddest dress.
But what about the spaces in which we live ? I want to dress my nest as if my man is already here. The elements of feng shui are basic to me. I need advanced training. The concepts for love revolve around everything in “twos”. Things should be purchased in pairs. I love fresh flowers. And elements of red for passion and fire…but not too much passion where my butt can’t sleep at night.
So do you think my future man is a leather headboard kind of guy???

I say it give it a try!! Those books by Lillian Too are the best. I used to be into Feng Shui but I slacked during Grad school but I kept the money frog figurine in my house and I made it through school financially (barely) but I made it. Now I need some feng shui to deal with the credit card debt I acquired during school.
