So you’re tired of old man Winter hanging
around and are ready for Spring (aren’t we
all!), and looking for ways to freshen up
your home’s tired decor…but don’t know
where to begin or how to get started.
Whether you are considering a dramatic
design makeover or small subtle changes,
my favorite way to rejuvenate any interior
space is by adding fresh new colors, texture
and personality in the way of paint, fabrics
and accessories.
Every Decorating Project
Starts with Color!
For many homeowners, deciding what col-
ors to paint the interior or exterior of their
home can be a very frustrating and unset-
tling event. Painting your whole house or
even just one room is an investment and
making the wrong choice can be very cost-
ly. If you are spending hours agonizing over
paint chips, are confused about “under-
tones” and lack the confidence to make a
decision, then the right solution would be
to meet with a professional color consult-
ant right in the comfort of your home. A
color professional can work with you to
determine what colors you are attracted to,
what colors will work best with your exist-
ing furniture and permanent fixtures, and
help you make timely decisions about your
final color choices…”feel good” colors you
will love waking up to and coming home to
every day for years to come.
Adding Fabrics to Layer in Color,
Pattern, Texture and Interest
All one needs to do is search online to see
the many thousands of fabric choices avail-
able in today’s global textile market. Faux
silks, faux leathers, geometrics, tribal ikat
designs, velvety chenilles, imported linens
and textured wovens are very popular
choices, and they wear well. Fabrics are
typically used in upholstered seating, win-
dow treatments such as roman shades,
drapery, valances and upholstered cornices,
and decorative accent pillows. Introducing
several new fabrics will add depth, dimen-
sion and color, and totally change the look
and feel of any room.
Accessories A.K.A the “Finishing
Touches” to Every Decorating Project
Accessories are the exclamation mark (!)
that will add a personalized stamp on your
own unique decorating style. Interesting
wall décor could be artwork, some great
shelving filled with books and handmade
pottery, or a treasured gallery wall of
framed family photos. While accent pil-
lows, comfy throws and area rugs will soft-
en and cozy up a space, the right light fix-
tures work to illuminate and add the per-
fect amount of “bling” to any room.
Whether you are interested in hiring a qual-
ified design professional, or planning to
Do-It-Yourself, it always helps to work with
a “plan”. By working with a plan, you will
avoid wasting hours upon hours of your
valuable time running from store to store in
search of the perfect furnishings, and mak-
ing costly mistakes. KT Interior Designs

sultation as a way to meet and discuss your
decorating needs and challenges. We are a
