With the crazy, everchanging, real estate market, we have been getting more clients opting to do changes on their existing homes, vs moving. Picking out a new paint colour, lighting and then styling, will transform your home to a beautiful space that you can be proud of.

Steal these secrets:

Edit your space
Scour 2nd hand stores for accessories
Mix high with low priced items
Pull out or purchase some beautiful books that express your interests or personality
Start a Pinterest board of rooms you like
Look at your art in a new way, maybe we need to group art or try it in a different room?
Make a list of things you are drawn to and things you do not like.
Group objects by theme, material, colour
Create a focal point for each room

What colour should I paint?

That depends on your space and all the hard finishes in your space. What colour is your tile, counter tops, special rug you want to keep etc. We want to find the right mix to ensure all the things that are staying look harmonious.

Picking colours or shades of white and gray is a lot easier with large paint colour boards. We have large paint samples which give you an instant idea if a paint colour is going to work, eliminating numerous paint samples on the wall and still getting the wrong colour.

Styling is often overlooked, but is the finishing touch in pulling a room together. We always try and use what clients have, but use them in new fun ways. Grouping small pieces of art or collectibles can have a big impact.

Clients love being able to see and enjoy their special items rather then having them all packed away. Styling is the fun part of decorating.Display things on your coffee table, dining room table that tell a story of the people who live there.

Most of all have fun with your decorating, be different, be patient, be you!
