FOR FABULOUS WALL DECOR – THINK BIG
B
ig is back in wallpaper design. Not the giant full-color floral blooms from Grandma’s house, but oversized, luxurious prints that evoke a feeling of old Hollywood glamour and style. The designer trend of over-scaled stripes, scrolls, damasks, and harlequin prints adds a focal point to the home and drama to walls both big and small. Oversized prints balance out large walls in new homes and add dimension to smaller rooms, even if applied to just one wall. Another hot look to update the décor of any room is adding wallpaper with metallic finishes of gold, silver, bronze or copper. Unlike the shiny foils of the 70’s, the new metallics are in rich hues of matte color. Affordable wallpaper murals from York are another way to add texture and character to rooms. From a sophisticated sunlit Tuscan hillside or an octagonal window overlooking a sparkling blue sea to a fun night game at a crowd-filled baseball stadium, new mural designs offer limitless possibilities.
Large-scale pattern adds drama to this sitting room. Look achieved with Ronald Redding 18 Karat design from York Wallcoverings.
For more information visit wallpaper stores and home-improvement centers, call toll free 1-866-967-5925 or visit www.YorkWall.com.

LOCAL PROFESSIONALS EARN ACCREDITED STAGING PROFESSIONAL® (ASP®) DESIGNATION The softening Real Estate market is increasing homeowner demands for tools to help bring a profit in the sale of their homes. ASP Home Staging has become one such tool. By properly cleaning, decluttering and preparing a house before it is listed on the market, homeowners have a better chance of selling their home at or above list price. In a recent study conducted by Stagedhomes.com, of over 1000 homes, (55% Vacant, 45% Occupied) across the United States and Canada, showed that homes that were prepared for sale by an Accredited Staging Professional (ASP®) were on the market 80% less time before selling than non ASP Staged Homes. And the average ASP Staged Home sold for more dollars depending upon the market, price range of the house and the neighborhood. Averages ran from 7.9% more dollars to over 25% or more than non ASP Staged Homes. Jeannie Brady and Melissa Swick of ERA Brady Associates are now serving the Tunkhannock area as Accredited Staging Professionals (ASP®) Jeannie and Melissa are among the network of more than 21,000 Real Estate Agents and professional Home Stagers worldwide, who are providing sellers with the knowledge and tools they need to sell their homes faster and/or for more money.
