Before you think color, think light. Keep the window dressing minimal or at least mostly open. Finally, note the darkest sections of the room and install lighting (lamps, recessed lights, cable lighting is superflexible, can spotlight art, tablescapes, etc). Second, know what mood you want, bright for reading or crafts, bright for play or simply light for relaxation. Obviously, you cannot go wrong with neutrals (grays, taupes, beiges, palest yellows). I would avoid primary colors (deep reds, yellows and blues) unless you're going for the "box of crayons" look. Finally, buy sample sizes of what strikes your fancy and apply 1 square foot (at least) to the wall that gets the most light (or each wall). Live with it for a few weeks and get the families' reaction. Don't neglect bold artwork, largescale (4x4<) is best as glass will reflect light back into the space (big mirrors too). And here, you needn't avoid any colors because the work is framed and doesn't touch the floor. gl

Protect Your Belongings When Remodeling Your Home?

Lay down some carpet guard across your carpet, along the pathways that people walk, and over the carpet where walls may be demolished or painted. Carpet guard will protect your carpet when contractors walk in with their dirty work boots, and if you're using some form of carpet guard, your carpet will not have to be replaced if you're painting and you spill some paint on the floor. Also, when painting, be sure to use blue tape to tape off portions of things you don't want painted.

How to Install a Carpet Runner?
A carpet runner can brighten up your home when placed in a strategic location such as a hallway, entry way or stair case. Installing a carpet runner can be simple provided that you have the correct tools and know how. To properly install a carper runner, you will need carpet padding, a razor blade, hammer gun/staple gun, straight edge, ruler, pad tape and for stair installations, an electric staple gun.1.) The first step in installing a carpet runner is to measure the area of the installation and map out the placement of the runner, using your straight edge as a guide. This will help to ensure that the carpet runner will be placed in its desired location.2.) Once the measurements have been completed and the placement has been mapped out, deduct an inch from the length and width of your measurements and use your razor blade to cut the carpet pad to that size.*Note: if you are installing your carpet runner on steps, the pad should only go on the tread of the steps, not the riser. Measure your pad to come out to the edge of the nose and a 1/2 gap should be left at the crotch of the step for stapling.3.) If there are any seams in your cut to size carpet pad, join them with pad tape.4.) Using your hammer gun/staple gun, secure the carpet pad in place, ensuring that the pad stays straight and that there is a half inch gap between the edge of the carpet pad and where the edge of your carpet runner will lay.5.) Roll the carpet runner out on top of your carpet pad, ensuring that it remains straight and centered.**If this is a hallway or entry way application, you are done!6.) If you are installing a carpet runner on stairs, you will now need to staple the carpet runner to the stairs with an electric staple gun. Staple the carpet to the nose and crotch of the stairs, ensuring that the carpet remains tight against the stairs.7.) Enjoy the beauty your new carpet runner has brought to your home!
