Is a design or decorating idea in your imagination? Perhaps you have a more significant project in mind? Does HGTV leave you spellbound and daydreaming of the possibilities? If  your answer is YES to any of these questions, you’ve got plenty of company!

QUICK FIXES AND FRESH LOOKS

Would you like to make some quick and powerful changes to your home for a fresh look?

COLOR

The most cost-efficient, quick, and dramatic makeovers are simply made through a change in color.  A weekend-warrior painting project can transform any space from drab to fabulous! Color is powerful, and even one accent wall can frequently do the trick. Sometimes the point is to provide just enough WOW, yet not overwhelm.

I love to use color strategically to accent existing designs and layout features. Locating contrasting colors can expand your spaces visually or create other dramatic effects.

All these ideas, like many facets of design, are not quite that simple to execute. Even choosing the perfect color for the effect you want can be challenging.

Dramatic effects and functional improvements can frequently be made without breaking the bank! However, effective, efficient, and cost-conscious design solutions require setting clear project objectives and, above all, establishing a budget. I always recommend creating a prioritized wish list that includes “have to haves,” “like to haves,” and “nice to haves.” Of course, there’s always “if I won the lottery”! This wish list might be for your whole home, or could be just for one area or your outdoor space.
