12 Things I Learned From Kelly Wearstler?s Interior Design MasterClass
Here are 12 things I learned from watching an interior design MasterClass with the color-loving global lifestyle designer, Kelly Wearstler.
I?ve been staying in my childhood home since the beginning of the pandemic ? and while my parents applied a low-key Early Americana-ish vibe to most of the house (with tables and benches from my grandparents? Pennsylvania farm, primitive blanket chests, Gaudy Welsh ceramics, etc.), my sister?s and my rooms remained IKEA- and garage sale-filled white boxes. (My mom: ?We didn?t think you were coming back.?)
As we prepare to hunker down for the seasons ahead, I?ve struggled with how to revamp this quasi-temporary space ? which means I was extremely excited to see Kelly Wearstler?s MasterClass on interior design. Pros: Watching Kelly Wearstler apply paint samples to a white wall in the Proper Hotel in Downtown L.A. is like ASMR for the home design set. I also definitely need a cling-clangy bracelet of metal samples (ideally including various rare and precious metals.) Con: After 150 minutes of instruction, I?m still not 100% on how to handle the 125-square-foot space I?m currently sitting in, but at least now I know to refer to my nascent design scheme as a ?story? (drink every time Wearstler says ?story? and you will be dead by the end of the class) ? and that lemon-yellow (?citron?) paint basically cures all ills. Kelly Wearstler
Here, a few more notes from a class I wish had been twice (minimum) as long:
