Instagram star and founder of Inspire Me! Home Décor shares her
creative and elegant interior design secrets so you can create a
glamorous yet cozy home without spending a fortune.
Farah Merhi launched Inspire Me! Home Decor in 2012 as a creative outlet
during a transitional time in her life. Farah was about to graduate
college and planned to attend law school. Going through the motions and
feeling unfulfilled in her career choice, she built up the courage to
face her truth. Taking time off to figure herself out, Farah, through a
remodel project in her home, had her "ah-ha" moment. The importance of
taking care of your home, specifically in the way you clean, organize,
and design, was instilled in her at a young age, but she didn't realize
how much of an impact her upbringing had until she owned her own home.
Farah knew she had found her passion and calling, and was determined to
inspire home owners to live their best lives in their homes.
Farah believes that taking care of your home is essential to your peace
of mind. Her design style is elegant and glamorous but infused with
warmth and coziness, creating a welcoming feel with neutral color
palletes, soft and inviting fabrics, and exquisite design details that
can work in any room. She believes you can make a statement without
sacrificing an inviting feel to your rooms. There is no right and wrong
when it comes to designing your home and Farah encourages you to focus
on the overall look and feel you desire, and her tips and advice will
help guide you through the process.
Starting with her most frequently asked questions about paint color
versus wallpaper, lighting and rugs, home organization, and of course
styling, Farah walks you through every room in the house from the
mudroom to the kitchen and kids' bedrooms. Along the way, she includes
quick seasonal updates on a budget, suggested routines for maintaining
your space, and her unique reward system, which includes small styling
vignettes around your home.
Woven throughout are Farah's personal stories that will feel like you're
getting design advice from a close friend. Everyone deserves to walk
into a beautifully decorated home every day--now you can, with the
inspiration and practical tips in Inspire Your Home.
