You're Doing It Wrong, with Bilal Rehman

Bilal Rehman is a young luxury interior designer based in Houston who has quite a social media presence. From the appearance of his website, few of us could ever afford his services, but we have the opportunity to learn from him through his fast-paced, profanity-laden TikTok videos. He is particularly eager to tell you what not to do with your home design and decorating.

Okay, I am three for three, because I have none of those things in my house. The floors are wood-colored, the furniture does not match except that it's all very old, and the few pieces of wall art were painted by my kids. Let's try part two.

Ooh, I hate those labeling signs. My curtains go to the ceiling because my windows go almost to the ceiling, and my curtains are ridiculously long. And I've never used contact paper on anything. Am I an interior designer or just hopelessly old-fashioned? I've just finished redoing my bedroom. The wallpaper came down, and I couldn't deal with selecting new wallpaper, so I had it painted. Let's see if I chose the right color.

I believe I passed that one, too, since my bedroom is now this color, although I can't figure out why it's classified as purple. I'm not trying to impress anyone, I don't care about trends, nor am I interested in ever selling my house. But it's nice to know I passed the Bilal Rehman test. -via Digg
