Design  Tips
Decorating is both an art and a science, and the right décor can turn your house into a home. Whether you've moved into a new home, or just need a fresh new look in your existing home, get some unique design ideas by using my guide Easy & Affordable Design Tips.

Here are a few design tips:

Divide & Conquer — If you have a long room and need to create two areas, try dividing it with a curtain on a decorative curtain rod. Designer bed sheets come with a myriad of beautiful colors and styles from which to choose.

At Least Three Feet — Dining room chairs need to be placed at least three feet from the wall. This will ensure easy maneuvering.

One or Two Shades — If your fireplace surround has soot or grime that won't come clean, try painting it one or two shades darker than the walls. This will highlight the beautiful architectural features of the fireplace.
