Do not be afraid to mix metals! In your kitchen, bathrooms, and throughout the entire home. Certain metal groups work really well with others. Give it a try!

Lindsay’s Top Tips:
Review what is out there! Browse Pinterest, Houzz and HGTV for ideas and styles that you are drawn to. Any inspiration images that you can provide ahead of time are a huge help when getting started on your design journey. Remember to do what you love – designing for resale is important but loving your selections will keep you loving your home for years to come!
