You’ve been working with Kip&Co since the beginning, what are top 3 tips for styling bedrooms? -  Get out of the white zone. There are so many amazing colors in the Kip range, there is something for everyone. Color can create a mood, an energy in your bedroom. Who wouldn't want a beautiful bedroom with good vibes. -  Mix textures. Cotton, linen and velvet. That's what I have on my bed at any one time. It never gets boring and it adds more warmth to the overall feel. - Make it yours.  You go to sleep in it and you wake up in it so your bedroom is pretty important in my opinion. Put some personality into it and don't be afraid to change the style from season to season or as I do, from week to week. 5. What are you looking forward to in 2017? Holidays, family time and creative projects. The next kip campaign being one of them. 6. Where can we see more of your work? www.amberlenette.com KipAW17-D3-29648
