Annie McCarthy - Your Home Your Heart Interiors Interior Designer Perth | Perth Marriage Celebrant I love change! Anything to do with housing is of enormous interest to me.

With a love of helping people to create beauty and balance in their homes and lives, my life has been one of constant change absorbing the many modalities that make up the Annie Package. Sustainable housing, Feng Shui, Reiki, energy balancing in homes, and creating mandalas for my clients have always been a passion of mine and so they formed a strong part of my offerings. With formal training in

art and design I set up my own interior design business in Perth and somehow blended them into one. Little did I know at the time, that so many years later, when I entered the world of real estate, all these things would be invaluable in helping people prepare their homes for sale. My belief has always been -

“Everything has beauty, you just have to look for it”

Layering Rugs!

Layering rugs is a great way to add warmth, character and texture to your home🏡

Here are some examples of what strategically placed rugs can do:

1️⃣ Highlight an area - layering a small rug on a large one directs the eye to that specific area.
2️⃣ Define a space - standard rug rules say there should be approximately 25-50cm of bare floor between the edges of an area rug and the walls of a room and that most furniture should be sitting on the rug.
3️⃣ Introduce Colour - layering rugs is a great way to bring colour and patterns into a room
4️⃣ Add Texture - It doesn't have to be colour that you add. It can be cowhide or sheepskin on a sisal or jute base rug that can create a fabulous look.

When you are changing up your home decor, you need to have a plan, a vision.

It doesn't have to be sophisticated, but you need to have at least looked through some magazines, or saved some pins on Pinterest or researched on Google.

That way you will be able to see some styles and colours coming through. You could even create a vision board to build your style.

If you need some help creating your vision, please let me know. I would love to help you.

Before you start on any new styling project, you need to think about decluttering your home!

Here are 5 tips to get you started:

1️⃣ Give one item away each day - think about it - this would remove 365 items from your house in a year😯
2️⃣ Fill an entire garbage bag with items you could donate to Charity.
3️⃣ Donate clothes you never wear or haven't worn for the past year!
4️⃣ Start with just 5 minutes decluttering at a time and slowly build up.
5️⃣ View your home as a visitor and take note of what others see.

What's your biggest challenge with decluttering?

The painter is almost finished so things are starting to take shape.

I have chosen a restful deep green (Dulux Oyster Linen) for the dining area to set it apart from the remainder of the living area, which is Dulux Natural White.

The architraves and skirtings are Dulux Vivid White.

My client can't wait to start placing all her goodies in their fresh new space!✨

YOUR HOME YOUR HEART

I have renamed my page to reflect more of who I am and what I would like to share, which is about us as spiritual beings and the spaces we create around ourselves to conduct everyday life.

My new cover shot is a mandala I drew for a client many years ago, one for her to meditate with and to find a sense of peace at the end of a busy working day. The eye is drawn to the centre of the image, and this helps to let the chatter fall away and healing to begin. Sometimes, for the page, I will draw a simple geometric shape, and it will have meaning; this I will share with you in just a few words in the post.

Real Estate listings, articles on colour, space, Feng Shui and generally creating beauty around us are some of the things that will cross my page.

I do hope you enjoy,
