3 Simple Ways to Improve, Spruce Up Your Home for Fall

Three simple things you can do to spruce up your living space for the fall season.

1. Kitchen – Focus on the Details

Update your kitchen by starting with the faucet!  This season’s trendy style is the “GOOSENECK.”  They are available in several different finishes, but Polish Chrome and Brush Nickel are the most popular.  Prices range from $100 – $300 at your local home improvement store.

 

2. Add Color – Painting, Accessories and Art

By painting a wall or room, your home is immediately refreshed.  This season the color of choice is AUBERGINE (purple), and you’ll find it everywhere. But if painting isn’t on your to-do list, add color by adding Accessories or hang a beautiful piece of Art. It’s an instant and easy makeover!

 

3. Clear the Clutter and Get Organized

Yes, It is true.  A well organized, de-cluttered home is simply beautiful.  Start by placing books on bookshelves or stacking them neatly on the floor. But if you need a bit more help, contact me, or your local NAPO (National Associate for Professional Organizers). Trust me, getting organized is the easiest way to make a room sparkle.

 

So, there you have it — 3 Quick Ways to Freshen Up your Home for the fall season!
