Dezigner Digz HIP TIPZ - Home Staging, Design & Decor Tips & Nods to the Profession: Tip #'s 66-70

By
Home Stager with Dezigner Digz

 

Not sure what HIP TIPZ is?  Please click on Our Introduction to find out more.  Now, let's get down to business -it's time to roll:

 

HIP TIPZ #66

Need more seating, but short of space in the kitchen?  How about a built-in corner nook.  You can even add some storage drawers underneath too if storage space is an issue for you.

 

HIP TIPZ #67

Does your room have a low ceiling?  Install the drapery rod well above the top of the window frame and hang drapes that flow to the floor.  This will help to give the illusion of more ceiling height.

 

HIP TIPZ #68

Do you have a highly dramatic, large piece of artwork?  Let it be the star attraction of your room and build around it with subtle accent pieces.

 

HIP TIPZ #69

A wall tattoo can make an amazing statement in a room and is easily removed once you tire of it - no lasers required ;-)

 

HIP TIPZ #70

Want to make a big impression on guests?  Have the knobs on your ensuite cabinets engraved with your initials.  Now that's luxe!

David - You're welcome!  They look amazing.  Of course a homeowner will have to change them out when he or she is selling - that whole depersonalizing thing ...

Cindy - Thank you, I'm glad you like it!  These tattoos are painted on the wall, similar to a stencil but with much greater detail.

I love the tips too.  Charlene, I own one of those homes with low ceiling heights luckily only downstairs).  My standard length curtians go from the ceiling to the floor.
