              Where's the room?     jigsaw


Interior ReDesign in Palm Beach County- If you have a room that's a Jigsaw puzzle to you, why not get it ReDesigned?!  For many  homeowners, moving into their  dream home can become a nightmare.  The boxes are unpacked and everything is put away but with working, kids and a life, you just can't get some of the rooms to come together.   Time goes by and you live with what you have.   Many times it's  more a matter of bringing that one room into the new millennium. 

You don't have to start over from scratch
.  Interior ReDesign may be just what you need to bring the WOW back into your home.  We can work with your existing furniture and accessories, recommend paint colors, and shop for additional items that will enhance your room if you want.
Family Room BeforeFor example, our homeowner wanted a fresh update on her family room.  They had already planned on a new sofa but wanted help with some of the extras.

We found just what we needed in our client's closet... 2 stone pedestals, perfect for a console table.  All that was needed was  glass top, cut to our needed dimensions.   Add items that were on her "wish" list and she now has the completed area she wanted.

Interior Redesign Tips for Palm Beach County- Take Your Kitchen into the new Milennium!

With Palm Beach County's housing market in the slump for the last few years many homeowners have decided to stay in their home and wait until the market improves before they list their house.  Why not use this time to update key areas in your home?

As a Professional Home Stager I always ask myself why a homeowner would wait until they try to sell their house to make the improvements that they could have enjoyed while they were living in it. 

Buyers typically focus on 3 key areas: the kitchen, primary family living area and the master bedroom and bath.    Any why not.... this is where we all spend so much of our time when we're at home.

kitchenLet's focus on the KITCHEN: this is the hub of the house....it's no longer strictly for meal preparation.  This is often where the family gathers before starting the day and heading out to work, school or even play.  It's command central where messages are left, schedules checked and yes meals prepared. 

Ask yourself when the last time was that you did anything to your kitchen.  5 years... 10 or more.. never?  Walls do not have to be removed to make relatively easy and inexpensive updates to your kitchen.

Consider these updates:

*Paint- the color of your kitchen may scream 1980 so take a trip to your nearest paint store and see what's in for 2011.  Keep in mind what you already have in your house especially if those rooms are visible from the kitchen.

*Cabinets- You don't have to start ripping them out..... consider painting them or even just replacing the cabinet and drawer fronts. 

*Hardware- This is one of the easiest and inexpensive updates you can do to bring your kitchen into this century.

*Appliances-  I know... we're all proud that the refrigerator we bought 15 years ago still works but look at the new energy efficient and often more practical appliances that are out there!  New appliances are often the first thing that will be noted in the MLS listing and one of the first things a Buyer will see when they walk into the kitchen.

*Flooringthere are so many types of different flooring out now, there's now excuse for the cracked tile you've been walking on.  Consider wood, new tile, bamboo, cork  or believe it or not linoleum is making a comeback!

*Lighting-even with all of our wonderful Florida sunshine, we still need a good source of light in the kitchen... and one that enhances the area.  Try the new pendant lights or even the newer track lighting.

*Countertops- everyone's eye will go to your counter tops and why not... it's where we work.  You'd be surprised what a difference adding a new countertop can make in giving your kitchen that extra pizazz! 

*-Sinks why not consider the newer undermount sinks when redoing your kitchen.  And while you're updating this, install new fixtures as well.
