“Theming for a Lifestyle”
Definition of a theme:
Wikipedia: “a central topic, a subject or concept (the author is trying to point out)”
Webster’s: “a unifying or dominant idea or motif with common elements”
Show Me Decorating: simplified focus, narrowing choices of common elements when decorating for Christmas, parties, events, home décor and personal style
Why Theme?
1. A unifying concept or theme gives even modest home displays a professional sheen
2. Simplifies your decorating, buying
3. Saves money and time
4. Creates focus and finish
We live it,it is our way of life!
Home: Home décor and interior decorating
Volunteer work: Teacher appreciation, charity events
Church: Women’s ministry and special events
Dressing: simplifies getting ready, packing and looking pulled together
We have lived this way for so long and have taught our kids as we celebrated birthdays, hosted baby or bridal showers, that they are using these same ideas in decorating their homes and celebrations.
