There are a few more things that can be done to make your home a little more sharp and a little less shabby. Details are the key.
Touch up paint on the walls or furniture. Replace light or power plates if they have paint on them, are yellowed, or won't come clean. It's best not to paint them because they get grimy to easy and grim doesn't come off paint very well.
This is a bit more involved but first impressions are important. I recently spiffed up the front door and around it, it took about 5 hours total. First the door knob needs to be replaced, it's old and scuffed. I don't have the money to do that right now so I bought some bronze spray paint and now it looks great (this only a temporary fix and I don't recomend you plan on it lasting more than a month ot two). For the light near the door I did the same thing. I then put a fresh coat of paint on the door and the trim. Check out the pictures below!

Hey Mandy! It's Windy Cobourne... I was reading through your blog and am finding it REALLY helpful! Organizing does not come naturally to me, plus my A.D.D.-ness has me flying from one room to the next and forgetting what I was originally working on! You're an inspiration! hee hee! Take care! Say hi to Chet for us!
