Here’s the thing about Pinterest—it’s inspiring, but also a little misleading.

I can’t tell you how many times a new client has said, “I’ve pinned so many things, but I still have no idea what my style is.”

If that sounds like you, please know you’re not alone. Pinterest is a wonderful tool to gather inspiration, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. Your style isn’t just in the photos you love—it’s in the emotions behind them.

Let’s dig into what’s really hiding in your Pinterest boards and how I use them as a tool to create a home that feels deeply personal and beautifully you.

You’re Not Confused—You’re Just Multifaceted

One of the biggest myths in design is that you need to fit neatly into a single style box: modern, traditional, coastal, farmhouse…

But real people are never that simple. Your taste is probably a beautiful blend of influences—and that’s a good thing.

When I look at a Pinterest board, I’m not trying to force you into a category. I’m reading between the pins. Maybe you love the earthy tone in one image, the symmetry in another, the light in a third. That tells me more than any label ever could.

The “Pin + Spin” Technique

When I study a client’s saved images, I use a method I call “Pin + Spin.” I don’t just ask what you love—I ask why. And then I spin that insight into something uniquely yours.

For example:

• If you’ve pinned 14 bedrooms with creamy linen headboards, I know you crave softness and warmth.
• If there’s a pattern of rich woods and clean lines, you likely love a mix of grounded comfort and modern elegance.

Once I uncover those patterns, I build a palette and layout that reflects the feelings your board evokes—not just the look.

A Board Isn’t a Blueprint

One of the biggest mistakes homeowners make is trying to copy a photo exactly. The result? A space that feels more like someone else’s home than your own.

Design is more than matching what you see—it’s about creating something that feels right in your space, with your light, your architecture, and your life.

That’s where the art of customization comes in. I take the inspiration and turn it into intention.

We’re Building a Story, Not a Mood Board

When we work together, your Pinterest board becomes a starting point—not the destination.

It’s my job to pull together your images and translate them into a cohesive story. We refine the vision, make sure it aligns with your lifestyle, and elevate it with textures, lighting, and layers that can’t be captured in a 2D image.

It’s not about mimicking a room—it’s about creating a feeling
