December has wonderful holiday's for building decorating schemes from many interest, hobbies, items and themes. You may find a ribbon in an amazing color that sparks a whole decorating scheme. If your decorating for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa etc start your planning in advance.
Most often than not, decorating quickly for the holiday's will never be a challenge. Adding small touches here and there are enough to pull even the largest room together quickly and easily. As long as you have all the supplies you need decorating will take almost no time at all. You just need to know how to lay out the items properly on your table.
Decorating for the holidays is a form of celebrating heritage and tradition. So have fun decorating and enjoying time with friends and family.

The Kitchen
It's very important to me to build a relationship with my Real Estate S.A.C. Properties clients. This kitchen was like an old school lunch room that totally went the wrong way. I remember when my client first saw this home. It was between this and another home. He asked my opinion and I told him I love this home it has so much potential. I think he trust me more because I was a design professional and owned and operated S.A.C. Interiors. I told him I would hold his hand.
The contractors started gutting the kitchen.
The Kitchen is starting to come together we now have cabinets.......
Of course if your doing a new kitchen you can do a regular old floor. But we need this kitchen to "hot" or like one of my design sisters like to say give it that "WOW" effect.............
The Finish
Painting & Floor Refinishing
The satisfaction we at S.A.C. Properties have with working with Real Estate clients is once they close on there new properties. We at S.A.C. Interiors have the honor and joy to help them with there design ideas of there new house. It is a wonderful feeling to transform a house into a home. Here are a few before and after photo's.

All About Beds
The conventional feng shui advice for bedrooms is that, since it is a place of rest, colors should be more suggestive of yin, rather than yang energies, although never to such an extent that there is imbalance. For happiness luck in one's love relationship, however, feng shui does prescribe the warmer yang tones.
We can borrow a list of recommendations given to a young couples to ensure they have a happy love life. Here are a few do's and don'ts that have been passed down to me......
* Decorate the bedrooms in red during the early years of marriage. If red is found to be too strong use pinks or peach. Red creates passion and a great deal of yang energy whch brings good furtune to the relationship. White is a god color for bedsheets, but not the use of blue sheets.
*Don't Sleep Facing The Door
According to Chinese custom the death position is when one has one's feet directly facing the door. This arrangement is deemed to be a very excellent yin position for the dead, but it is deadly for the living! Actually, feng shui advises that neither the head not the feet should be pointed directly at the door of the room. When positioning a bed, it always advisable to have it placed either to the left or right of the door.........

If your going to use Feng Shui to design your master bedroom. Then when you consider your double bed is really a double bed make sure that you have a single mattress. You should never have two mattresses since this symbolically creates a schism between the sleeping couples. Its far more better to have to separate beds, or even separate bedrooms to take account of two people having different auspicious of two peple having auspicious directions than to sleep on a bed which has two separate mattresses.
Ok Guys I know your going to hate me for this one. No No to mirrors i the bedroom. Mirrors possess a special form of energy which can either be very good ot very bad. The one place where mirrors can be a great deal of harm is in the bedroom. Mirrors are a major taboo in the bedroom. Here mirrors cause havoc in a couple's marraige and love life. Mirrors are often responsible for the entrance of third parties into an otherwise god relationship. If you must have a mirror keep it closed or covered during sleep. No mirrors on the ceilings please!!!!!
You should be very careful about mirrors that directly face the bed. Feng Shui masters attribute the breakdown of marriages, and espically infidelity, to the negative effect of mirrors reflecting the bed. In feng shui lore the reason is that the mirror creates energies which then disturb the relationship of the sleeping couple.
Rich Reds
Warm and moody, deep tones create a womb-like ambience. Traditionally favoured b royalty, the are still associated with richness and luxury. Redlent of Arabian Knights, Katmandu and the Indian subcontinent, always lend an exotic air to a room. The richest reds found on rubies and garnets lend a sumptuous, warm and intimate feel to any room...........
