I’m Merri Cvetan and welcome to Style By Design. A blog about all things design related, living a stylish life, entertaining and travel. I’ll share decorating and design tips, ideas and secrets. I explore style trends ranging from fun and funky, practical or extravagant, traditional to contemporary.
I live a “Casual Chic” life in an antique farmhouse that my husband Tom and I restored inch-by-inch. I’ve been collecting antique and vintage furniture and accessories since I was a teenager. I also love the challenge of up-cycling; taking an object and re-purposing it into something beautiful and useful. My weekly articles are featured on amazinggoodwill.com.
I’m an amateur photographer, love to travel and study French (j’adore tous ce qui est français!). Although I love to entertain, I hate to cook. My philosophy? If the table looks fabulous, it doesn’t matter what you serve!
Join me on my design journey. I would love to hear about your home and style.
