“After brief conversations, Daarina’s artistic eye and since of efficiency took over. The room that I now have is exquisite. She took care of design issues I was only vaguely aware of such as conversational flow and lighting. Using objects I already had, she created a sense of balance and a visual treat.”

-Dr. Daaiyah Saleem, Professor, Atlanta, GA

“I love my NEW living room, thanks to you I don't EVER want to leave the house. HOME SWEET HOME!”

                   10 Easy Tips to Spruce up a Room

1. Change your lampshades. Add character to your

lamps by choosing shades in colors outside of the norm.

2. Throw on a slipcover. Give your furniture a new look

by covering it with slipcovers for the new season.

3. Organize and accent a bookcase. Try alternating
shelves with books and accessories to bring instant

order and interest to a bookcase.

4. Accent wall. Add drama to a room by painting an
accent wall in a bold color.

5. Change the mat on artwork. Swap out a light-

colored mat for a dark one, or vice versa, to update

the look of a photo or artwork.

6. Add an area rug. Use an area rug to anchor furniture groupings and to add definition to a space.

7. Picture perfect. Hang a picture low between the bottom of a lampshade and lamp table to create an element of surprise.

8. Paper screen. Turn glass doors into pretty hidden storage by lining the glass with printed wrapping paper and taping it in place.

9. Use a decorative tray. Instead of allowing your homes entry to become a dumping ground, use a decorative tray or bowl for mail and keys.

10. Change accent pillows. Transition into the new season by replacing your accent pillows or covering them with decorative fabrics.
