About You Can Do Beautiful Things

In this groundbreaking, step-by-step interior design book, the DIY social media star and host of HGTV's Home in a Heartbeat empowers you to create spaces that are visually stunning and emotionally fulfilling, no matter where you're at in life. On Home in a Heartbeat, Galey Alix surprises and transforms families' homes in just a three-day window. Now she has created a high-level guide and road map readers can follow when (re)designing their own spaces. Once a high-powered finance broker, Alix turned away from the finance world and started posting her home renovation videos to social media for family and friends. She stepped away for several months due to a bad breakup and when she logged back in to her accounts, she found that she had millions of views and requests from followers all over the world asking her to come and transform their spaces as she had transformed her own. Entirely self-taught and naturally gifted in aesthetics, Alix uses the core principles of interior design to empower her to take bold risks, break the right rules, and deliver amazing results. Drawing from her experience, she knows how to make any space work, from tips that make a room feel bigger and ceilings look taller to choosing the perfect white paint for your walls. Alix knows where you can skip the full-on remodel and still make a big impact, freeing up your budget for great décor pieces instead. With You Can Do Beautiful Things, Alix shares the road map she uses when remodeling a space, as well as her ride-or-die rules, how to renovate on a budget, how to start a design business, and more! By offering practical tips and guidelines, she gives readers a comprehensive resource to create aesthetically pleasing and emotionally fulfilling homes.
