Note from Kelly
It is usually around this time of year that I suddenly start to loath winter.  The snow and ice (you should see my driveway, it has about 3 inches of solid ice on it!) and the freezing cold make me wish for the warmth of Spring!

 I have been busy introducing my new video 'The Magic of Paint - Choosing Wall Colors for Your Home'.   I am actually negotiating a deal with Benjamin Moore to put my video in their stores.  I am offering to those on my decorating newsletter list, just for the month of February, to purchase my video for $19.95 instead of the full price of $29.95.  Just send me a note through my email isredesign@cox.net and I will send the video to you.  I am proud of the video and happy to be helping people who need help with choosing paint colors for their home.

  Until next time-Happy Decorating!

Time to go Away!
Three more of the "10 Most Common Decorating Mistakes"


Poor furniture placement.  Avoid pressing all of your furniture up against the walls as if there was a dance floor cleared in the middle, but also make sure you can pass through the room unobstructed by pieces of furniture.

A room that is off balance.  A room is off balance when all the large heavy pieces are on one side of the room and all the smaller, more delicate pieces on the other side.

Furniture of different heights. When seating is of different heights and/or artwork is hung at different levels, the effect creates a 'roller coaster' that causes the eye to travel uncomfortably up and down around the room.
Decorating Tips
Just a couple quick ideas for easy, beautiful, inexpensive decorating:
  • What is the best view in your room?  Rearrange your furniture so that you can enjoy it.  Pull a chair or bench next to window and suddenly it's your favorite place to sit and relax.            
  • For a new look, make tableskirts for your end tables in some off beat color with a contrasting color trim.  If you are tired of the round table, place a piece of square plywood on top before your start for a new look.
  • Try to edit your furnishings when redesigning. Sometimes you need to take something away rather than add. (I know I am repeating this- it is worth mentioning a second time.)

The walls in this home were all painted a safe, neutral pale gray.  We choose this living room color- Ben Moore AF-505 Blue Echo to bring out the colors in her artwork.


JeanneWe painted this neutral Ben Moore AF-345 Honeymoon in the entry and halls.
