Time marches on, as they say.  With the influx of paper thin TVs in our homes, don’t cling to the Bookcase style set up in your viewing room.  Just as armoires that held the bulky TVs of old are passé now,  open up your wall space to a New Look.

Whether contemporary, transitional, eclectic, or traditional, there are countless versions.  It’s the clean, uncluttered look that will make you smile.

With their fingers on the pulse of decorating trends, paint companies featured lots of white as their color of the year.  While there is nothing more serene and peaceful than a calming white interior, what is necessary to make that setting come alive?  Tone on tone whites, featuring undertones that are compatible; touches of nature–plants and wood to warm up the palette.  There is truly more to white than white.

Here is how to provide a mini-lift to your interior without too much effort: The pay off will be great with a few touches to update your surroundings. If your home is in need of a lift, since everyone is going lighter and brighter, why not add a little sparkle with some new gold accessories. The new gold is not the stale brass look; it is rich, fresh and new. Take notice of all the new accessories in this finish. Available in all price ranges, find a few to suit your taste. Don’t try just one piece because that will not do the trick. You must repeat the gold in a few areas to make a statement; a lamp base, a dish for the coffee table, a objet for the wall, picture frames, or some artwork with splashes of gold. Go bold! You will have a new look!  Just a word about mixing metallic finishes.  If you are after a new cohesive look you must add enough gold to be noticed.  If there is a bronze or nickel somewhere in the room, don’t hesitate to add the gold in.
