by Stacy Duncan-Plush

Its that time of year when we start thinking about entertaining outdoors. Its BBQ season! Here are some Re-Freshing ideas on how to make your outdoor space as Fabuless as your indoor space. Use accessories in your outdoor spaces just as you would on the inside of your home. Try these ideas:

1. Lighting- have you seen the new Outdoor Lamps? They are attractive & weather resistant. Or use lanterns & candles for a more romantic appeal.

2. Add a rug- Outdoor rugs are very popular right now. They are inexpensive & come in many designs. They are water resistant & can be cleaned with the garden hose. Check out "Home Haze Porch Rug" ($54.99) at target.com.

3. Window Treatments- What? Don't have windows on your porch? Attach window panels at your porch ceiling with rope or light weight wire & eye hooks. Use light & breezy fabric panels to create a cozy "room" feel.

Pearls and Heels? Not Here!

by Stacy Duncan-Plush

Pearls & heels... not here! There is a certain "image" that the public conjures up in their mind when you say "interior decorator"... they picture someone waltzing in to their home in a suit, pearls & heels & saying; "oh, this will not do, this all must go!". They think, "Yes, I would love to hire a decorator, but I can't afford THAT." Well, not the case. A new breed of Interior Decorator has come to town.
Fabuless Interiors is the expert at creating style on any budget & here to serve the design-conscious, budget-savvy homeowner with interior decorating services that will make their home look fabulous for Less.

Re-Freshed Interiors (interior re-design) is an affordable approach to interior decorating. It is a client-centered approach to interior decorating, focusing on the homeowner's needs, style & budget. The homeowner can be involved with the decorating process as much or as little as they choose. Re-Freshed Interiors involves using what the client already has in their home. The process begins with an evaluation of the homeowner's space- what they want to keep, what they want to replace, why the space is no longer working, what look they are trying to achieve. Then the creative process of re-arranging furniture, accessorizing & organizing begins. Fabuless Interiors will "shop" from other rooms, closets, basements & attics of the homeowner's home, pulling together a new look with what they already own. The process continues with Consultation Services to "fill in the gaps" in the homeowner's decor. Fabuless Interiors will help determine what the homeowner needs to give their home that "finished", "pulled together" look. Remaining mindful of the homeowner's budget, a detailed decorating "checklist" is devised with what to purchase & where to purchase. Then depending on how much legwork the homeowner chooses to do, they may work with this checklist as their time & budget permits, purchasing & adding to their decor over time. Or, if the homeowner is not comfortable with this process, Fabuless Interiors can provide Shopping Services & make the purchases for them.

Everyone deserves to have a home where they truly love to live! Now is the time... you too can have a home that looks fabulous for Less!
