Does your home feel like you?? Swedish-born interior designer Jill Sorensen of Marmalade Interiors out of McLean, Virginia believes that your home affects you deeply–ignoring your home is ignoring yourself! Her vibrant home above photographed by Tanya Malott translates to where she is in life right now: fearless, carefree and happy. So much cheery color, I love it! With the idea that you can improve your life with good design, and that good design should be available to everybody, at any budget, Jill started a blog called Live.Like.You. in addition to a (really cool) online store. She sells a lot of unique, colorful home decor, but also provides a ton of free design ideas and advice! Check it out here!

My master bedroom is almost the same color as the living room here..This gives me lots of ideas on which new colors to introduce into the space!
I love the name, "Marmalade Interiors"… says Fun, fresh and delicious interiors to me!
Gorgeous! I really want that green tufted bench in the first pic.
Well, it's official:
I'm a Cranky Old Bat whose nerves are shot! This house, charming as it is (and it is) would drive me batty (LOL!) in a few minutes. Too much pattern, too many colors overlapping. Not saying it isn't well done – it is – and it is delightful. And it works! Just not for me.

Wow! That woke me up. Good thing, since I'm out of coffee this morning. I love this post! I'd seen some of her work but it's fabulous to get the full dose! xoxo
PS This will certainly be pinned to death 🙂
Love Jill! She is a color MAVEN!
I would have never thought to use that turqouise on a large room but I love it- and love the bedroom color. What a fun happy home
I just couldn't keep quiet about the fireplace screen! WOWEE! and who wouldnt love anyone who lets doggies on those chairs, good for them!
I have long enjoyed Jill's sense of color and style…and her little dog too!
I love jill! I think she is brilliant and one of my favorite designers. I love the way she puts color and pattern together! BTW I adore your blog! You do such a great job! You are always one that I look forward to reading! I am new to blogging but enjoy it! Pop over to visit sometime! Take care Erin!
Whoa, that's certainly a bright house. I do like pops of bright yellow and turquoise. I especially love that turquoise velvet sofa, but …I think I need a more calming color scheme!
love your blog, dear <3

Home is most important part in every person's life. You share such amazing image of beautiful home. Your interior design, sun light, colour and so on.
That's just perfection!
Of course I love Jill's house and her amazing sense of style! That's my black dog, Sparky, modeling for me on her chair. I particularly love the purple mirror frame against the turquoise wall.
What a great combination of colors!
😀
Okay now we're talking. This is so me..all that color and pattern. It's full of eye candy! Thanks for sharing!

OMG, this space is incredible! This is exactly how I'd like to decorate my house. I love all the fun bright tones, and the mix of color and pattern. And the fab use of elephants!
Love the color. Favorite is piano bench with purple cushion, and the large/oversized decorative framed mirror.
Where do you find a frame that decorative and large??
