How do you manage to keep your gorgeous white couches clean with kids and a dog?

This is a question I am often asked. Washable covers are a must have. I accept that having a white house with white furniture, mixed with kids and pets, there are going to be accidents, dirt and all the rest of it. Purchasing furniture that can easily be cleaned is key. Removable washable covers have been my life saver and choosing furniture materials that can be cleaned easily and having a great fabric protector treatment also. A concrete dining table with rattan chairs makes life so easy when it comes to wiping the table down and hosing dining chairs if need be. It’s a lot easier than people think. It can work.

What would be your advice to someone in the planning stages of their dream home?

From my experience, it would be to not overthink the planning process. Not to detour from your own vision. With social media at our fingertips, it is so easy to get swayed with all the inspo thrown our way daily. Keep referring back to your own vision and stay true to it.
