May 2009 Newsletter is out!



This months newsletter covered, Inspirations for Bathrooms. Have you been daring with color in your bathroom? Bathrooms are the first place to look, if you have a bold wallpaper, or paint color you's been dying to try. These little, often forgot about spaces, can entertain any house guest when you apply the right decor to the walls, and keep them coming back for more.

5 Affordable Updates using Decorative Painting

1. Do the base coat: To keep costs down, ask around to your family and friends, I'm sure you'll be able to find someone who is willing to help you base coat. Then the artistic work can be done.


2. If the wall paint is less than 1.5 years old: We can work with the existing wall base color, to do a color change, and you can instantly have a different room! (Photo Below: Room started off as the 'builder' white, and 3 layers were added to create faux)


3. Have a 'decorative boarder' added around a room: This works great in any room. Most clients have done this in hallways, kitchens and bathrooms. When you add a vine, or flowers to any wall color, you instantly get a different feel, and colors you never knew will start to shine through the room.


4. Paint the ceiling: That's right, look up in your home. These often neglected spots in the home are a sure way to give any space a 'wow' factor with out re-doing the whole room, with minimal costs compared to a whole-room re-paint.


5. Add a Decorative Accent wall: This allows you to have a whole new room, with only changing one thing, for a dramatic change.
