"D&amp;amp;#233;cor-obsessed Miranda Cosgrove gives you a private tour of her favorite room in her house: the den (plus, design secrets!). &amp;amp;#8220;A dog makes a house fun,&amp;amp;#8221; says Cosgrove Why it&amp;amp;#8217;s my favorite spot: &amp;amp;#8220;It&amp;amp;#8217;s cozy! I&amp;amp;#8217;ll do homework in here&amp;amp;#8212;I&amp;amp;#8217;m at the University of Southern California, working toward majoring in film&amp;amp;#8212;or pile onto the couch with friends to watch movies or play games. One of my favorites is Catch Phrase; it gets really competitive!&amp;amp;#8221; Put some buds in a cheeky vase. &amp;amp;#8220;Flowers always look pretty; I enjoy Gerbera daisies.&amp;amp;#8221; Kate Spade New York vase, $60, katespade.com My color M.O.: &amp;amp;#8220;At first I gravitated toward boring colors&amp;amp;#8212;lots of white. Then I found the blue couch. From there I had a blast picking pillows: some blue and some in my accent color&amp;amp;#8212;very important&amp;amp;#8212;burnt orange.&amp;amp;#8221; Accessorize! On that ottoman: a print tray, bird vase, candle, and books. &amp;quot;Knickknacks add personal style.&amp;amp;#8221; My design tip: &amp;amp;#8220;Don&amp;amp;#8217;t decorate all at once. I&amp;amp;#8217;ve been here months, and I&amp;amp;#8217;m still not done. Live there, decide what you need, then hunt for things you genuinely like.&amp;amp;#8221; Brighten a couch with pillows. &amp;amp;#8220;I like to mix a couple of pretty designs.&amp;amp;#8221; Crate &amp;amp; Barrel pillows, $30-$40 each, crateandbarrel.com &amp;amp;#8212;As told to Jade Chang Do you love Miranda&amp;#x27;s den too?
