For example, if that adorable adopted cat who makes you sneeze sleeps on your pillow most nights, it may be a good idea to convince her to sleep in a different room. If you have a chronic postnasal drip from an allergy to pollen or from a deviated septum, its important to treat those issues as well.

Design doesn’t have to be daunting. Some people really find it challenging to take on their entire home, because they don’t know their aesthetic, they don’t know where they want to go, my advice is always find that one piece you love. It could be a pillow, it could be a sofa, it could be a china cabinet – find that one piece and build off that, because if there’s a piece you’re really in love with, it’s a good indication you want to go in that style direction.
