As we have been doing, before and after shots are so impressing. It is visually stimulating and a sense of accomplishment. A designer usually does before and after shots to keep to see the progression of work.
I hope you take before and after shots. It is so easy today as they can be stored on your computer or even on your I Pad or smart phone. We used to take them and then have them developed and have folders full of them. So much easier today.
I talked about an estate sale the other day, and I will again today. Use your good china and crystal, if you have some everyday. No one wants it and there it is for sale for next to nothing. One thing I like to do is mix china. I decided I would like to set a table in white and gold one year for the holidays. I saw some gold and white plates at Pier 1, and loved them. However all they had was the dinner plates. That was when I decided to buy any white and gold dishes. It really looks great when I set up the whole table with all the different gold and white and use gold silverware. You have to look all over, resale shops, flea markets, garage sales, even estate sales, and acquire some great pieces.
Beautiful table settings are in all the new magazines. Look and your will get some great looks. Napkin rings, knife holders centerpieces are only a few great things to look for.
Use what you have or it will end up in a estate sale and never have been used.
Add fresh flowers, that are now readily available in grocery stores, to add a bit of elegance, no matter what your look is.
