Meet Brittney Blane – Your Interior Design Guru
First things first, if you haven’t already, you need to check out Brittney’s YouTube channel here. She’s your go-to source for all things interior design, and her fresh and trendy approach is sure to inspire your creative side. First, we’re getting up close and personal with a Q&A to discuss the latest fall decorating trends and tips that will inspire you for the season.
Q1: What are the upcoming Fall interior design trends?
Brittney Blane: “This Fall, we’re seeing a return to more traditional colors. Think rich gold tones mixed with bright colors like pumpkin orange, vibrant greens, and luscious burgundies. Also, incorporating nature-inspired elements like natural woods, lots of pottery, lush fabrics, and accessories and using natural tones with organic materials is key. I think the word that best describes the trend is modern traditional. You have all the things you loved about your mother’s and your grandmother’s homes when you were young, yet you modernize it to fit your own unique space.”
Q2: What inspires your interior decorating decisions?
Brittney Blane: “I draw inspiration from my travels, art, and, of course, my amazing followers! It’s all about curating a space that feels uniquely you. I love helping people find their style and create a home that tells their story. Your home is your sanctuary, so I try to tap into emotions when I make design suggestions. You can do the same by sitting in your room and thinking about how you want to feel when you are in it.”
Q3: What has drawn your attention lately?
Brittney Blane: Lately, I’ve become very obsessed with rugs because so many people are getting away from wall-to-wall carpets but still want rugs to define spaces. I was getting ready to stage my house for my next installment on YouTube, and I realized I needed new rugs. Aladdin asked me what I wanted, and I said, ‘You pick.’ As a designer, it’s hard for me to turn over the reins, especially with such a crucial item as floor coverings, but I was blown away by what they chose. They worked some kind of magic in my home with the rugs they brought into my house. They are stunning! They are beautiful!”
Q4: What do you recommend people do before shopping for rugs?
Brittney Blane: “Great question! Before rug shopping, make sure to take room measurements in advance. Knowing your room’s dimensions is crucial. Determine the rug size that best suits your space and furniture arrangement, making sure that the rug accommodates all furniture legs, or at least the front legs. Leave a comfortable border of floor space around the rug for balance. Just like hanging curtains, you will want to make sure your rugs are in proportion to the furniture so that your room looks evenly weighted. Finally, you want to consider your color scheme and rug placement. It’s all about finding the perfect fit for your space.”
Q5: How can people find these antique rugs?
Brittney Blane: “Antique and vintage rugs are true treasures. You can find them at specialty rug stores, auctions, or even online marketplaces. Their timeless charm and unique designs bring an air of sophistication to any room. Whether it’s a Turkish kilim or a Persian masterpiece, these rugs tell stories of generations past, making them conversation starters in your home. Places like Aladdin’s Rug Gallery have an incredible selection of Turkish and Persian rugs to elevate your space. While you’re there, check out their pillows and accessories too. They can help tie your entire room together.”
Q6: What is your favorite thing about fall decorating?
Brittney Blane: “Fall isn’t just about pumpkin spice lattes and cozy sweaters; it’s also a season of celebration. I embrace the spooky vibes with Halloween-themed decorations, set a bountiful Thanksgiving table, and then deck the halls for Christmas!”
