Refresh, Refurbish, Renew, ReDesign or ReDecorate - Welcome to the Talk I Walk!



Always remember the five "R's": Refresh, Refurbish, Renew, ReDesign or ReDecorate.

They range from using only what you already have, to changing or replacing flooring, lights, paint, counters, back splash or refinishing stairs. Refurbishing and Reusing by recovering furniture, and then mixing current pieces with new finds can all add up to a brand new space!

I enjoy the process and the challenges of solving the problems but the real reward for me is creating a space the client loves to come home to.

TO DRESS YOUR WINDOW OR NOT TO DRESS YOUR WINDOW?

WHEN SHOULD YOU CONSIDER ADDING A WINDOW TREATMENT: 

1. To create a privacy screen
2.To protect fabrics and flooring from Ultraviolet Rays
3.To hide ugly trim
4.To hide a view
5.To add a layer of insulation
6.To soften a room's overall look

Think of it as adding the simple white pearls to that little black dress!

WHEN TO CONSIDER LEAVING YOUR WINDOWS BARE.

Think of a mountain lodge with huge floor to ceiling windows exposing the most gorgeous view overlooking a valley of evergreens and a sky full of mountain peaks. This might be a time to let the window itself be the only barrier between you and the view. 

Window treatments can be simple and non intrusive to becoming the focal point of the space.  There are solutions to fit all budgets.

Here are a few before and after photos of rooms I have transformed. Notice what a difference the new window coverings make in the spaces.

HAPPY DECORATING!
