        <title>I want my home to look like those makeovers on television</title>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Q. I want to make some changes in my house but I don&#039;t know where to begin.&amp;nbsp; I definitely cannot buy a lot of new things,&amp;nbsp;and the&amp;nbsp;things I do have are not new and not all that great. Where do I begin?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: smaller&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;A.&amp;nbsp; You would be very suprised what a trained decorator can do with what&amp;nbsp;you already own!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Many people have items that they wouldn&#039;t even consider using, but a redesigner&amp;nbsp;will see them in a different way, and you can too.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;Clear your room - clear your mind - and then begin. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;Floral arrangements or greenery?&amp;nbsp; Look outside. Your yard is full of items that would look beautiful&amp;nbsp;in a vase.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;Artwork?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Gosh,&amp;nbsp;magazines have great pictures you could add an inexpensive frame&amp;nbsp;to. Even greeting cards&amp;nbsp;can be framed.&amp;nbsp; Or buy a few artist canvas boards and&amp;nbsp;spray paint them or wrap them with wrapping paper.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333399&quot;&gt;Have a friend over for inspiration, and hands-on help. And if you still are feeling challenged, call for a redesign today! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
