  If you were asked what your decorating style is, what would you say? Contemporary, Traditional, Modern, Shabby, Country, French Country…most of us blur the lines more than we realize (especially DIY’ers!) Blurring the lines seems to be my official style, and I love to combine shabby with high-tech.  Modern with soft, a little unexpected…
