N-Hance Wood Renewal!!

N-Hance is a revolutionary wood renewall product that is relatively new to the industry. What is it exactly? Well according to their advertising "it renews your wood cabinets and floor without dust, inconvenience and noxious fumes associated with traditional refinishing methods. In many cases, the process can be completed in just one day!" 

As a home stager and redesigner, I am always looking for options to pass along to my clients that are cost effective and not time consuming. This could very well be it. One of my clients recently had it done. The reason they chose it, is the very reason that was stated in the advertising, no mess and can be done in one day. I have  a strong feeling this will appeal to many people!!

OK, so what is it exactly? According to their advertising "Removes the dirt and grime build-up that can make wood look flat and lifeless over time. The renewal process thoroughly cleans the surface, removes old coatings, repairs damaged areas with less mess and applies an elegant finish"

It also gives you the options of three solution:

1. Basis renewal. No change of color. Has minimal wear on the wood surface. Basically your old cabinets will look new again.

   2.  Color shift. It will slightly warm the tone of the wood, leaving the beauty for the wood grain 

       in-tack.  Great for sun-faded areas. This will take 2-3 days to complete.

   3. Color change. This is a more dramatic effect. Usually the cabinets will go from light to dark, such 

      as oak to cherry. You can shop at Home Depot Design Center  and simply select any sample 

      cabinet color and they will match it. This will totally change the look of your kitchen and will typically 

      take 3-5 days to complete.

As you can see from these photos, very impressive. My client's kitchen is roughly 12x12 kitchen with no Island or Peninsula. I believe he is being charged around $3,000. Which in my opinion, is not bad. Cheaper then professional painting, which they were quoted a price of $4,000 and they would have to live through the smells. Refacing is probably 3x that amount!! This is a great option to offer your clients!! What do you think?

Creating a beautiful room with paint!

Creating a beautiful room involves many different elements: color, creativity, placement, furniture and accessorizing. One of the most important and intimidating is the process of color. Many of my clients will fall back to neutral beiges (when done right, beiges can be very cozy), which may result in the room feeling half done. Working with a certified color specialist can help take the guess work out of the process, resulting in a beautiful room!

Here are just a few tips to consider when choosing color:

1. Keeping the walls and floor color in similar tone will make the room appear larger.

2. Lighting makes a huge impact in a room. Will you be using incandescent, LED or  

    florescent? Each light gives off its own effect.

3.Did you know that every color has a warm and cool version? If you choose the wrong 

   version, it could have a devastating effect in your room. Color can literally make or break  

   a room!!

4. Using color at least 3 times and in 3 different zones will create interest and movement 

    in a room.

5. Ceilings are a great area for adding additional color to a room. Just make sure you keep  

    the rest of the room light.

These are just some of the things to consider when painting/decorating a room. As a certified color specialist,  I have seen rooms that would have otherwise been beautiful, fail due to the fact they chose the wrong color. Don’t make that mistake!! Hiring a color specialist is pennies on the dollar, when you consider what the labor and paint costed you!!
