Instant Chic!

I’ve added a new twist to my design repertoire. I’ve started doing interior redesigns, where for $350 – for a standard size room – I envision a complete design plan. The goal is to minimize spending by using existing furnishings, and if necessary make suggestions for new paint colors, window and floor treatments.

No contractors, no falling plaster or power tools. Just a simple revamping of spaces that need some new life breathed into them…with a little color, rearranging, and organizing. It’s so much fun to work on these projects because I get to see clients enjoying their fresh new space in such a short time. It’s really quite energizing for everyone.

And…as a bonus, with all of the money that they’ve saved, they’re able to go to the flea markets in Paris!

    I loved this post as this is what I do as well. Although not really interior design but home organizing but then again the two run in similar directions. I love reusing what people already have. In fact I went to a house yesterday and the woman was bringing out her pottey barn catalogs and I realized that I do not really know where to buy new furniture? I felt at a loss until I realized she wanted 2nd hand furniture that resembed pottery barn items. Well now I’m back in my element. Lovely blog by the way.

    Sylvie..this is a lovely blog. I just discovered you had one. I think it’s wonderful to reuse what you have just spruce it up a bit. (mostly because I have to!) but honestly it’s fun to change things around.
