When I learned that my friend Karianne from Thistlewood Farms was creating a new home décor book, I had a good feeling about it. I suspected it would be special—and I wasn’t wrong.
When the book arrived at my door, I was genuinely delighted. Opening the package felt like finding a little treasure; I even let out a small squeal. This is one of those projects that immediately brings joy to anyone who loves homes and creative design.
THE DIY HOME PLANNER is charming, thoughtful, and bursting with practical inspiration.
There’s a special kind of happiness when a fellow designer or blogger pours heart and creativity into a book. You can feel the care and attention on every page. I’m especially thrilled because Karianne and I share so much in common: we’re both passionate about home décor, and we even have the same publisher and literary agent. We’re working on a book together soon, so I feel proud in a very personal way—like family cheering each other on.
The illustrations throughout this planner are utterly delightful. This isn’t just a pretty book; it’s thoughtfully designed to guide your creativity. You’ll find spaces to sketch ideas, plan projects, and reflect on your decorating goals. Small details like pockets in the front and back make it easy to tuck in paint chips, fabric swatches, or inspiration clippings.
If you’ve ever felt unsure about where to begin when styling your home, this planner provides a gentle, encouraging roadmap. It’s ideal for staying up late with color-coded pencils and markers, dreaming up possibilities and turning ideas into actionable plans.
