Recently I was challenged by producer Leslie Gaydos of NECN (New England Cable News) to do a room makeover on a budget for her weekly segment called Money Saving Mondays. Well I love a challenge and I had all sorts of ideas for the room. The room was dark and cluttered and in desperate need of help for the wonderful young family who lives there. We taped the “before” segment a few weeks ago and the “after” segment is being filmed today. I will post a link to the segment on this blog once it airs.
I can’t give too much away until the show airs but I can give you a little sneak peak of one of the things I did.

Above is the dark, and over stocked bookcase before and below if the “after”.
The finished room looks amazing…now I just hope I am a little less nervous today filming the “after” than I was when filming the “before”.
Don’t you just love room makeovers?
If you would like help with your own room makeover give me a call.
