Mini-makeover #4
If you’re craving some more mini-room make over ideas, let me point you toward a little secret candy shop to satisfy your hankering. This is not an edible candy shop; rather, it is an eye candy shop full of uniquely decorated door-knob hardware that will invigorate your design senses and lend liveliness to any dull room. At Anthropologie, you will find adorable hardware that is difficult to come by and is the perfect inexpensive solution to freshen up your décor. Although penny candy is an event of the past, these knobs range from only $8.00-$12.00, making them an affordable luxury in our present economy. Attach just two or three of these onto your doors and your home will instantaneously captivate returning visitors.

Pull accent colors out of your décor and bring them together to inspire the purchase of a new area rug. Now I understand that an area rug is a much larger investment than lampshades, ottomans, or door knobs; however, an area rug is the crowning accessory of a room and updating an old one will immediately capture the attention of your guests. Purchasing a new area rug gives you the opportunity to modify the ethos of your décor without a large-scale renovation. At Nest Expressions, we carry Shaw area rugs, the industry’s most luxuriously-textured hand finished rugs. Shaw carries countless styles, sizes, and colors to suite both your fashion and functional needs.
Mini-makeover #6
We’re not talking about cosmetics but, our next mini-makeover tip can be paralleled to the fact that cosmetic chemists design beauty products to be smooth with a lustrous finish. These Chemists work hard to combine elements that create a glossy finish for our lips, eyes, and cheek bones. They do this so that our facial features will be accentuated as lighting strikes our face in different places. The same principle applies to our interiors. One of the best ways to give your room a mini-makeover is by re-painting your walls with a high-gloss oil-based paint, giving them a smooth, shiny, and lustrous finish! Applying high-gloss oil-based paint not only makes the room seem bigger, but it functions as a canvas to radiate the soft glow of filtered sunshine. Hunter Douglas window fashions are an exceptional compliment to high-gloss oil-based paint because they are designed to artistically control and enhance natural sun light. This combination will create a room full of vitality and invigoration for you and your house guests to enjoy. Ace, “the helpful place”, is a wonderful resource for painting tips and consultation. High-gloss oil-based paint is available at Ace or any hardware/paint store.
