One word. Oprah.Either you love her or you don't. Either you listen to her or you tune out. But at the very least & with regards to her guests on the show, you should listen to them.
Chicago's own, Nate Berkus is one such person.
Unlike my other fave, design doctor, Thom Filicia from Queer Eye & his own show, Dress My Nest, which finally we have here, Nate's sense of design & style is self taught. He was thrust into the spotlight in 2002 when he guested on Oprah & since then has been giving home styling tips. He currently has his own show on Oprah's O.W.N network.
But this book which I got & also gave as a bday gift for a friend will most certainly give you tips on how to make you home a better one. This coffee table book has lotsa great pictures which I know you will love & wouldn't mind incorporating into your own houses. From tackling each room what you need it for to little addendums to personalize your space, Nate's own rules for making your space should be heeded. And with my own house project coming up in the month, I know I am guided with these 2 Masters, Nate & Thom to keep me inspired & happy. ;)
Plus it doesn't hurt that he is cute! :) I just bought some NB sheets on sale at Guordo's. A bit wrinkly, as they are cotton, but they are so comfortable!
ReplyDeleteI love Thom Filicia, too. But sometimes his rooms are too busy for me. Great to look at, probably not to live in, for me at least.
Got that right Blue! Hope we get to see Nate's show here.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you see a Nate pin up....i want one. LOL!
