Event Overview

Finding and Implementing Your Interior Design Style

Not sure if you are Bohemian, Traditional, Modern, Kitschy or a combination of all of the above? Well, this class will teach you how to find your personal style. We'll review different styles in class (including blended styles) and have takeaway exercises to help you hone your style.

Then we'll cover guidelines for styling, using photos of your space, including how to hang art, what size rug to get, best lighting practices, collecting and displaying curios and furniture placement. You'll walk away with ideas, guidelines and a some great resources for shopping in the city. If you want to DIY, well, we can help you with that, too!

You will have the skills and ideas on how to make your space feel like home.

As an added bonus this class will be at Beehive Chicago and we will have some time to look at styling ideas using the furniture and accessories available for sale.

Feel free to bring something to drink.

    Kandy was great. She engaged the class, and had a lot of insight into various styles and ways to combine items with style and balance. She even took the time after class to email me a thoughtful note with further ideas and places to get inspiration for how to resolve some of the design challenges in my own home. Highly recommended!

    From Teacher:

    I'm glad you enjoyed the class. I can't wait to see what changes you make in your home.

    I have to be honest, this is the first Dabble class out of the 5 I've taken that I have not feel like I got my money's worth. I have not been able to find any credentials about Kandy that indicate she has any interior design experience besides a love of crafting. She was unable to define the styles she was talking about ("traditional," "mid-century modern," or "modern") and had no solid suggestions for figuring out what your preferred style is besides, "decorate with what you love." This is a 101 level class, the point is to help me figure it out! I am unsure why this class has 100% positive reviews.
