Accessorize your Home Affordably With Some Tricks by a Professional
Do you have to spend a fortune to accessorize your home? Not if you know what you are doing and where to shop.
Home accessories make a space functional, fun or dramatic depending upon your style. Rather than throwing all types of accessories bought on impulse, start out with a plan. Home accessories bring a room together and should serve a purpose to balance the color scheme, the scale of the room and enhance the theme of the room.
Make a list of the sizes and shape of the things you think you need and get color samples from the paint store to match the colors you will be shopping for. This is a lot easier and a lot more portable than dragging a pillow or a picture around with you to the store.
Shopping on line is easy and it is fun, but beware that the colors that are shown are not always true. At Barbara English Designs, www.barbaraenglishdesigns.com we have found quite often that rugs, bedding, drapes or other decor items look different when they show up at your home than they did on your computer. If samples or swatches are available and it is a major purchase, get those first and then order.
You do not have to shop at the most trendy and expensive stores for the great accessories. Shop in those places to get some great ideas and then make a trip to your discount stores to see if there is anything similar for sometimes a third of the price. You might even find something that you like better and your budget will always go further if you are economical on the accessories.
Save your bigger bucks for durable furniture or fabulous artwork that will really make an impact.
Stay away from cutesy. Too many people make the mistake of conglomerating one look all over the house. Craft shows can inspire an impulse purchase, but how many wooden cows really work in a home? Beware of overloading yourself with too many small accessories. Vary the size and shape and pay attention to the theme of the room.
If you want to do nautical, invest in the unexpected. Try antique stores for parts from a ship or beach resort. If you want to surround yourself with luxury, don’t be afraid to use that fabulous shawl you saw in a dress shop over the corner of a chair.
Some of the best accessores are really used to bring colors, textures or scale of the room into balance. A neutral color scheme can pop with two red pillows. Wooden furniture that does not match can make sense if accessories of the same color are placed somewhere else in the room for balance. A dark chair in a room with light furniture can work if dark baskets or pottery grace the room.
Large spaces require large accessories. Less clutter is critical and if you have collections of things, group them in the same space together rather than spreading them all over the house. That way they can be appreciated for all of their similar differences as a collection without looking cluttered.
At Barbara English Designs, www.barbaraenglishdesigns.com we have worked with thousands of clients who were not sure how to accessorize their homes. Balance, scale and avoiding impulse purchases that don’t have a place are all things to consider.

DO you think Disney milks their stars to their breaking point?
Now we know that whenever Disney gets a new star, or makes a new movie they make some huge francise(products, shampoos, pillows ). I’m starting to believe that they are pressuring their stars to much to do their best. I mean Miley is slowly starting to get some throat disease which could rob her of her voice because of the yelling, and the high pitch singing. Selena is already under pressure to stay the good girl. They are robbing their stars of their childhoods. What do you think. Are they milking their stars for all they got, or is is the star’s fault.
I think they’re both to blame (Disney and the stars).
Most of the time, the stars don’t know how to handle instant fame/fortune, and it goes to their heads. And Disney capitalizes on that and makes them even bigger, until the stars just fall apart.
But occasionally, Disney will come across a star (or stars) who stay really grounded, and those are the ones who make it big). So far, the only stars to not get caught up in it are the Jonas Brothers, Selena Gomez, and Demi Lovato (this is just my opinion, so feel free to disagree with me if you want to).

Paris/Eiffel Tower room…?
I want my whole room plain white with colored accents randomly.
I need like a plain white comforter, and that’s it. I don’t want any pink poodles or any little girl stuff like that. I aslo want to get a few posters of Paris to hang above my bed. One that I really like is:
http://www.amazon.com/Romance-Couple-Kissing-Eiffel-Poster/dp/B002PXSVHY/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1260854527&sr=1-23
Pleease help:) And by colored accents I mean like decorative pillows, and a colored desk chair.
Thankss!(: Also, if you have pictures of a good room that is similar to what I like, (or your Paris room in any colors) please link them:) Thanks again!
White is so elegant http://www.countryliving.com/cm/countryliving/images/Ml/CLX0408IDEA_008_2-de.jpg
Simple touches make this great..A large white floor vase with the same color flowers as your accent pillows. Orange sherbet is so pretty mixed with lemon or lime http://www.designwonderland.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Elle-ecor-Bedroom-White1.jpg
A shawl or a table cloth draped over the bottom of the bed.
Here is what I would aim for …Pick 2 colors. and gently and sparsely introduce them to the room. you want to keep white central. Grab vases old frames a chair from a thrift shop or for sale ads and spray paint them white. The more color you add the less your room feels white. The seats on these can be covered in your color choices http://www.usedwinnipeg.com/classified-ad/10565499
http://www.porterhousedesigns.com/images/296_white_tan_bedroom_003.jpg
Materials thin gauzy and lacy.
So many things you can print out in black and white http://definitelygolden.com/wp-content/2009/02/ong_on_upa_in_1.jpg don’t forget the gargoyles http://static.open.salon.com/files/gargoyle_9_36001246403315.jpg
http://www.jmfife.com/photo_gallery/Europe_2003/Paris_Gargoyle_1.JPG
You can even get one for your room http://www.statue.com/stone-gargoyle-statues.html
But your theme can easily go astray if you don’t pick slowly and with minimal corlors when you get tired of the you can change them to something else easily.

Give Your Bedroom a New Look with Throw Pillows and Designer Curtains
The home needs to be a relaxing place in which its residents can unwind after a long day. Oftentimes much goes into decorating the main rooms of the home; these are the places that get the most visitors after all. But the bedrooms are also deserving of quality design, with soft duvet bedspreads and fluffy pillows for each member of the family, offering a sublime sleeping experience. Making a few adjustments to the bedroom décor can turn them from unkepmt to welcoming in a very short time!
Changing the look of your bedrooms can be done with a few minor updates. If more people knew that updating duvet bedspreads and adding attractive designer pillows on the bed can make a big impact to the feel of the room, so many people would take this option that sales for such items would explode! When you find bedspreads that are designed with colors that calm you, the bed becomes a beacon of rest for the weary. You can bring a splash of color to your bedspread by adding decorative pillows. Going one step further and hanging designer curtains that also coordinate with what you have placed on the bed brings everything in the room together for a cohesive appeal. Coordinating the colors on bedspreads and window curtains and accenting them with colorful pillows dresses up a room so much that no further decorating will be necessary .
Since the bedroom is where you recharge your battery, it is important that the space be one that really speaks to your senses. Bedding should be in colors that are inviting for rest; pillows should be the right firmness for your comfort. Everyone has a different type of pillow that would induce the most restful sleep; which is why there are so many different types of pillows for sale. Support pillows offer cervical support in multiple sleeping positions. Memory foam pillows are becoming more and more popular. Made from shredded memory foam, this type of pillow actually helps alleviate back and neck pain.
Children tend to go for the latest fashions, even when chosing bedspreads. You can easily find items in stores or online; or it can be accomplished with just a little imagination. If your child craves a specific style that isn’t readily available for store purchase, you could create a unique item yourself. Using transfer paper, a decorative pillow could be made featuring your child’s favorite animal, action hero or celebrity. Simply print a photo onto the transfer paper and then iron on to a pillow case or on fabric that you will use to make a bedspread. Even in the kids’ rooms, window drapes should coordinate with whatever design is displayed on bedspreads and accent pillows so the space looks put together.
A well-coordinated bedroom does not require dreary and messy painting projects. Colorful bedspreads, curtains, and pillows can tackle the job of a bedroom makeover all on their own.
