The eclectic side of interior designer Sheila Bridges

• Mix different styles and periods.
  
• Design by instinct: If you love it, it will work.
  
• Shop at flea markets and specialty stores.
  
• Create cohesion with color and reputation.
  
• Don't forget the details. Accessories like wall sconces, glassware and linens make a big difference in a room's design.
  
• Whether you choose solids, stripes or prints, make sure to employ a unifying color.
  
• Try cutting soft pastel colors with furniture that is very dark.
