2009 Economy Two Tips on Budget Home Improvement


Does you home need a lift? Paint and wall paper borders are an inexpensive way to create a new look and add architectural detail to any room without intruding on your current overall design theme. Borders are easy to install, relatively inexpensive and can be placed in stairways, kitchens, dinning rooms, living rooms, family rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms and around windows and doors.

Look in your local hardware or home improvement store for exciting paint colors that may have been returned or not mixed to a customer's preference and discontinued or sale on wall paper borders. What a money saver!

You can use the paint for a one wall or wainscot accent. Place the border as a wainscot divider, around a door or window, create a series of gallery panels on a wall, use on the risers of the stairway, frame around a group of your favorite collectibles or a skylight, create your own headboard and use as a crown or base molding ... to suggest a few.

Borders can be mitered for perfect corners or cut out different patterns that appear on the border and use them independently. Try it you will love it!

Want a quick room change or pick me up. Tired of your artwork but love the frames. Measure the picture size, purchase new prints or get creative and insert your own. If your decor lends well to abstract or modern art have your children paint sections of color on a canvas for a special unique and GREAT look. Voila!! A new appearance and feel to your room. Remember frames can be refreshed, renewed or completely changed with a small amount of paint.

Write for more detailed information. And remember, I always love to hear about your creative ideas.




Happy Decorating, Diane
