From the time I was little, I was wallpapering our home with my mom. It was the late 70's so the patterns were WILD, remember? At one point we had yellow kitchen cupboards and yellow and brown wallpaper and I thought it was fuckin fabulous.
What I started to instinctively notice was that when we painted or wallpapered a space it was like taking in a huge breath of fresh air. LIFE. FELT. BETTER.
So from that young age, if I felt as though I was struggling in some way, I changed my room around, asked to paint or change the wallpaper because I KNEW I would feel better.
At one point, I had this brilliant purple paint with the coolest wallpapered accent wall. It had huge flowers on it ... purple and pink and black and white. I LOVED it and from the moment we finished, life was good again.
... and basically ... that's the gist of how I got started in Feng Shui! I wallpapered my room and felt better. Thus, you'll see wallpaper behind me in my office always, which represents that "start".
Note: When we change our space, we change our perspective. When we move things around, we move the CHI (fancy word for energy). When your space feels good ... it's GOOD FENG SHUI.
