Five easy and affordable Fall makeovers by Du interiors

1. Area rugs

Adding or changing an area rug dramatically changes a room.

2. Accent pillows

An easy-on-the-budget way to update any decor is the use of toss pillows. It's also an ideal way to infuse a trend without replacing key pieces.

3. Lighting

If you want to make an impact and change the look and mood in your home, an investment in new lighting can make a big difference. Perhaps you need more light than you did in the past?

Tasks are easier on the eyes when you change the bulb of a light fixture.

4. Accent chairs or dining chairs

An easy way to update your dining room for the holiday season is to replace your two-arm chair with upholstery fabric or leather chairs. Consider options that can provide extra seating for guest but can be used in any room in your house.

5. Decorate accents

Add some vibe to your home with interesting accent pieces, especially gold and silver for the festive holidays.

I like to give my home a Mini Home Makeover twice (or more...) a year with easy-to-change-up items that make a big impact. How about you? Do you change your home decor with the seasons?

Happy Fall!

Couple builds dream home in Walla Walla

Melissa & Mike visiting the construction site... a marvelous winter landscape! The calendar years of 2020/2021 have been one of the most challenging and unpredictable years of my life. On the other hand, they have also been one of my best professionally. The saying time flies when you are busy is true! My last blog was in November! Therefore, I am enjoying taking a break and sharing with you my pleasure in having had an opportunity to meet some wonderful new clients and catch up with existing clients. They kept me busy with consultations, renovations, new contractors and problem-solving with people working and teaching their children at home. You might think the interval during new construction won't have much of an effect on interior design, but decisions made from initial drawings and during construction have a profound effect on home decor. They set the groundwork for client satisfaction, such as this project. As the point person for a couple building their third (and fi...

Creative table tops add to dining experience

www.jellinadetmar.nl Whether it’s tea for two on an island in Capri or dinner for 10 in your home, a creative table setting adds an extra dimension to the dining experience. You can play with so many ideas, a Mediterranean theme, or Mexican or African…just about any country on the globe has cultural objects. If you do not have the accessories to start with, begin collecting whenever you see something that would work. It’s amazing what you can find shopping on your own house if you think out of the box. I always find something that I purchased on my travels like wraps from Africa or straw beach mat from Mexico as a table runner, bracelet from Hawaii as napkins holder, etc. Scarf from South of Africa Candles? Always! Add votives to take your centerpiece from day to night. You can play with colors and different heights to make the table décor interesting. You could go seasonal and use greenery in your garden or find some objects at the local nursery or your supermarket. A li...
