The wrong color can date a space and make it seem smaller than it is. Sometimes, all a space needs is an updated color palette. This bathroom received new flooring, a neutral paint color to replace the outdated wallpaper, and a fresh coat of paint on the existing vanity to create a modern, updated bathroom without a major renovation! - Heather Cook, www.homestagingdesign.ca BEFORE Photo by Luiza Matysiak Small touches of well planned color integration can make a big impact on a space. In this living room, we added pops of yellow and gold in the lighting, decorative accents, florals and throw pillows. This soft, warm color pulls from the tones of the lit fireplace, spreading a feeling of welcoming warmth throughout the otherwise neutral space. - Liliana McInerney, www. upstagebylili.com Give your bedroom that much needed makeover with a few simple fixes. When it comes to drapery, be sure to create that custom look by bringing them all the way to the ceiling. This will give the illusion of vertical height and add a sense of grandness to the room. If you are tight on space, forgo traditional side table lamps and opt for stylish pendants hung above your nightstands. Finish the look with a few accessories, a high quality rug and a throw to create a soft and luxurious look. - Rosalia Fazzari, www.tapestrydecor.ca 48 CANADIANHOMETRENDS.COM AFTER
