52 Things an Interior Designer Would Never Say :: Building Moxie

You know how sometimes you just know something. You don?t need to take a survey because you just know it. Like, you know deep in your heart that Justin Bieber has the d******** hair you?ve ever seen. You don?t need to take a survey, you just know. Like I know that there are 52 Things an Interior Designer would never say.

Or at least they shouldn?t. ;~)

1. ?I just love that sponge painted wall. It?s so 80s and I just adore it!?
2. ?You got your sofa at Wal-Mart? Me too.?
3. ?That howling mountain wolf framed poster is to die for. Where?d you get it??
4. ?Plastic covers on your living room furniture is totally cool with me.?
5. ?I agree. That faux plant looks natural. Dust and all!?
6. ?No, the 87 cows on your mantel look fabulous.?
7. ?That purple toilet seat cover can stay. I?ll design around it.?
8. ?Those oversize utensils on your dining room wall really bring the place to life.?

13. ?Blue carpet never goes out of style.?
14. ?Cardboard life-size stand-ups of celebrities are something I include in every design. Who do you want? Guy Fieri or one of those Kardashians??

27. ?That freaky naked people statue doesn?t say you?re a serial-killer-in-training at all.?
28. ?Those peel and stick floor tiles should stay.?
29. ?I tie all my curtains in knots.?

Disclaimer: Designers are prone to changing their mind at any time and are known to contradict some of these rules. However? if you ever catch one who thinks rule #51 is ever appropriate. Run! Run for your life, Forest!

And because I?m one of those cool designers you can come back over to my place and pick up some freebies if you want. Or maybe you?re in desperate need of some design help now? Then please be my guest and see what design elixirs, fresh brewed potions and cocktails I have to offer you, my love.
