[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in a city apartment so it's not exactly the same scenario, but we decided to scratch a plan to move to the suburbs and hired a decorator to help us reinvent the space we already had. We did not take down walls or do any major construction, but we did paint everything, replace most of our furniture, rugs, window treatment, and lighting fixtures. The end result changed the way we used rooms, created more efficient storage opportunities, and was magazine-layout beautiful to boot. No, it was not a cheap fix. But it cost less than moving, and ten years later I have zero regrets about our choices.[/quote] Can you say more about this? I'm curious how those changes made a difference in how the rooms are used. [/quote] Changing furniture size, the number of pieces, and layouts; repurposing the rarely-used dining room and guest room to be a more flexible spaces; built-ins to solve some storage problems and make use of "empty spaces;" lighting, paint colors, and wallpaper choices that made the space more inviting and added charm and ambiance. And in the end, making it truly beautiful made a bigger difference than you might think.[/quote]
