What Is In A Signature Space?

You possess a unique style of penmanship in the execution of your signature.  Somehow, that execution states who you are in your writing style.  For instance, if it is a jumbled, undecipherable scribble, you may be a person whose characteristics are hurried, busy and a bit disorganized.  If, on the other hand, it is "flowery" as my Mum terms mine, than it may be reflective of creativity, ornate and/or a bit eccentric.

Signature Style in your space can be reflective of all the things that interest one, from travels to collectibles, in that there really is NO right or wrong - just an adherence to continuity in its presentation.

One of my favorite Designers, Ms. Kelly Hoppen, from Great Britain is a gal to be admired.  She is infamous for the juxtaposition of unusual materials, like velvet n steel.  Something so soft a lush, paired with something so cold and shiny.  Imagine.

Just as if you are known, for your funky clothing, cosmetic applications, jewelry or personality - it is reflective of your Signature. 

Rules for "Signature Spaces" are:

.Mix the Old and New
.Infuse Texture and Color and always a Dash of BLACK
.Always think "ju-ju" - energies in your space.  Have crystals, flowers, music and air friendly candles to spark the wonders of the GOOD energies.
.Care for your possessions, no matter what their age.  Just as you would care, as best for yourself, so should you of your things.  Nothing looks worse than dingy, frayed and tired possessions.
.Play with Color - Lots of It throughout - whether it be in your textiles, or as an accent wall or painted piece of furniture.  Color speaks louder than words and makes a world of difference to your space.

Signature is as individual as you are - inspire yourself to create some right now!  Best!
