Shabby Chic founder Rachel Ashwell recently moved from a house over 4000 square feet into a 1700 sq. ft. beach house that helped her realize she wasn't a big house person.

"Less is so much more. In the case of this room, the sofa, a couple of chairs...no clutter," says Rachel. "I really find it easy to decorate with pastels starting with a platform of white on the walls, the sofa, whatever, and then layering in your color."
