Whitney Jones, Owner Of Whitney J. Decor

This July 4th weekend I will be talking with Whitney Jones, New Orleans’ based interior designer and owner of the shop, Whitney J. Decor. I know Americans love celebrating July 4th, and we also love to shop, so this is the perfect opportunity to support a Black-owned business at the same time. This week we will also be playing the Interior design game, Love It or Hate It, and Why? Whitney will share what spring/summer home decor trends she is loving right now.


Whitney Jones is New Orleans born and raised, and is constantly being inspired by the city's bold use of color, fun personality, and eclectic vibe. Space planning and accessorizing are her favorite parts of the design process, because they allow Whitney to show her clients both her technical side and her ability to style spaces. Since Whitney started her design business in 2012, she has worked with clients all around the US, and even internationally (including the UK and Australia), through her eDesign services.


On this week’s Interior Design Game: Love it or Hate it, and Why?   Whitney and I focus on this article from Apartment Therapy written by Alyssa Longobucco, 7 Spring and Summer Home Trends You Need to Know Now, According to Designers. This week’s shoppable mood board is all about what Whitney loves from these spring & summer home decor trends that are trending right now.
