Art of Accessorizing

June 13, 2019

The appeal of a beautiful room has many aspects, physically, visually, and emotionally. Every room needs careful attention, from floor to ceiling. Each step builds upon the next. Careful consideration must be taken when accessorizing and creating a room. Keep in mind the style and “feel” you are trying to create. What story are you trying to convey?
Here are just some things to consider:

1. Create interest by using unexpected art for accessorizing.
   
     
  2. When decorating, odd numbers work best.
  3. Placing a mirror over a mantel will only reflect the floor, so don’t do it!!

 4. Use old windows, textiles, etc. to create a unique display.
  5. Create your own art or accessories.
6. Hire a professional like Abella Home Staging & Redesign; we’re not as expensive as you think and you will have a one-of-a-kind room.
Whatever you do, have fun doing it. The key is to use art and accessories that feel personal and reflect your taste!!

New Products for 2019

January 3, 2019

New Products for 2019!

Since we are starting a new year, I thought it would be a nice idea to talk about some of these products you may not be aware.

Some of these products I have personally used and some I have not. All are products that can enhance your designs

1. Decorative Film– I love this product. These are films that can be applied over any glass door/window. Think of the possibilities. They offer privacy and decorative ideas. They are removable and reusable. Come in an array of colors and style to suit anyone taste.

2. Peelable Wallpaper – One of my favorite product. The use of this product is endless. You can use this on bookcases, furniture, lampshade, walls, ceilings….. see where I’m going with this? The best part, it’s reusable. Great for people who are renting. Very easy to install and remove.

3. Liquid Stainless Steel Paint –Do you want a stainless steel appliance but don’t like the cost? Then paint it — yup you heard right. This paint has stainless steel in the product. It’s even magnetized. You simply use it just like paint. How cool is that? I haven’t used this product yet, but I love the idea. It’s even available in HomeDepot

4. Soft Metal Film– If your appliances are still working but need a facelift, then this could be the answer. Same concept as liquid paint but this product you simply peel and stick. A little easier to use. Can withstand temperatures from 55 degrees to 122 degrees. I had used this product in my old home when I was getting ready to put it on the market. Held up great for two years and counting.

I hope you liked the products I chose. There are many more in the market and many more that come out each year. The trick is to be informed. Of course, you can always hire a designer. This way you get the added benefit of what’s trending out there.

Master bedroom are huge selling point!!

August 30, 2017
Master bedroom, is a huge selling point when selling your home. Many buyers want a 5-star quality master bedroom when purchasing a home. As a redesigner, this is one area I noticed, that is usually neglected!!  It isn’t difficult or expensive to achieve a high-end look. Here are some easy step to achieving the bedroom of your dream!

Imperfection:

Don’t try to fight it, instead embrace and work around it.  Long narrow vertical windows can be a problem, but if you get floor-to-ceiling curtains and hang the rod 6″-8″ outside the window sill, that will give the illusion of a wider window.

Matchy, Matchy:

This is one place you can and should match. Matching nightstand and lamps will give the room asymmetric look and feel. This will enhance that soothing and serene feeling that we want to achieve.
Fabric: 

Use fabric that can withstand stains. When selling your home, try not to use bold colors,  jarring patterns, or lacy fabric. If you using a pattern, make sure you repeat it and keep it simple.

Color:

When choosing sheets for your comforter, my rule of thumb is to match the bedspread. Too many colors are jarring to your senses. Make sure your wall color coordinates with your bedding and has a cohesive look.

Be practical: 

Don’t try to have a high fashion bedroom that only looks good but it is difficult to live in. Be practical and make it livable.

Remember this is your bedroom, use items that will appeal to your sense. Limit the amount of furniture, especially if you’re selling your home (overcrowding is a huge problem in bedrooms) and if you can at all help it, don’t put your office in the bedroom. Too many times I’ve seen the master bedroom used as storage areas!! This is a place to retrieve from your hectic life!! Remember master bedrooms are a huge selling point when selling your home!
