"I love how a canopy bed can anchor a room visually, while offering opportunities to layer pattern and texture in a way that feels intentional - but still lighthearted."
Step 1: Start by Grouping Like Items Litman's first tip was to pull everything off the shelves and sort it into categories. "Start by grouping all your items together.

I enjoy nothing more in the fall than flopping onto my couch for two to infinity hours and binge-watching my favorite comfort show (ahem, Gilmore Girls).
