Why is the Trend of One Day Room Makeovers Becoming So Popular?

Published in the Tampa Tribune October 16, 2011

Priscilla Castellano, Interior DecoratorA: In this sluggish economy many people don’t have enough disposable income to completely redesign their homes. However, they are spending more time at home and they want to enhance their living environment.

A One Day Makeover allows home owners to improve their living space one room at a time.

The changes can be as minimal as an area rug, some florals or artwork.

This provides instant results because it introduces new elements.

Often customers ask me to start with their family room since that is where people spend a bulk of their time at home.

You can do something as simple as adding new pillows with different textures and colors, and that alone can transform a dull room into a brighter living space.

Painting a room with a new vibrant color also breathes life into a home.

The cost of the makeover is usually less than a new piece of furniture.

Right now customers are booking holiday makeovers, which involve decorating fireplace mantles, the foyer, the living room, and the exterior and stairways with items like a Christmas tree, lights, wreaths and garland.

We even return the first week of January to pack up the decorations for storage until the next holiday season.
