Featured in the December/January issue of House Beautiful, we're getting an exclusive sneak peek at one of Libby's latest projects, along with some surprising styling tricks she swears by!

Don't let your walls have all of the fun: Lining the backs of bookcases is a neat trick if you don’t want to go for a full accent wall.
