How often do you visit your local home decor store? Once a week...once
a month? Whatever your response, I will wager that you find it to be
an adventure each time. Working in retail teaches us one thing: CHANGE
is good. A fresh new look is always desirable.
Moving existing merchandise to different areas of the shop
subconsciously entices the customer to return time and time again.
Often times, consumers may even mistake an older item for a new
arrival simply because of its change in placement. Well, good news -
this same trick of the trade can be put to good use in your home.
Moving existing pieces from room to room can be the answer to a
decorating dilemma. Take that picture from the guest room and make it
the new focal point of the living room. Add a few throw pillows to
accent prominent colors within the picture in order to enhance your
room. Consider changing the lighting to alter the tone of your room.
If you are using low wattage bulbs in lamps, then amp them up! Light
offers an easy way to bring new life to any space.
Some folks cringe at the mere mention of the word 'paint'. Painting is
a very creative and inexpensive way to add character to a room. Spice
things up with just a splash of color. Pick a tone from an existing
accent piece or from the drapes, and allow this color to become your
central theme. No need to empty the room and paint the walls from top
to bottom, a simple mid-line stripe in the chosen scheme can infuse
new life into any atmosphere.

Bath Accessories Can Spice Up a Room
Rearrange your furniture and your accessories. Display them in new
and original ways. Remember, sometimes less is more. The secret to
decorating lies in how you allow yourself to be creative.

This is the time of year that our thoughts turn to home and family. With so many of us expecting visitors at this time we basically turn into crazy people. We’re cooking cleaning and getting ready for family events. But we still want our homes to look showpiece perfect.
How do you do that without losing your mind totally? It’s easy if you remember a few basic rules . Rule
1 Think in threes. In the old days that meant 3 of one object but I think 3 items from one color story make a huge impact. So you could have a shower curtain, two rugs and a lotion dispenser and have a pulled together show room. You ca find these items by Shopping our in the bag collections found for the bathroom right here http://www.popularhomecollections.com/Bathroom-C139.aspx

The next trick to flawless transition is Jewel tones. The deeper colors instantly make every thing warmer and can transition from this point all the way to spring. My current favorite of our patterns is right here

And for your 3 and final tip for this post . Spread the holiday items throughout your home. Sure you may need more then one set but overloading a small space can just make it look as if the season came ad got sick in one room of your house. Trust me I’ve seen it and its just never ever preety. To check out our holiday collections head over here. http://www.popularhomecollections.com/Holiday-Collections-C214.aspx
