Stagnant decor can benefit from a quick glamour update that doesn't have to break your bank. Mark Nash author of 1001 Tips for Buying and Selling a Home and syndicated columnist for RealtyTimes.com offer quick ways for you to add glamour to your home. Some inexpensive ways to add a touch or major glamour to your home.-Add a large vase or urn on desk, table or vanity. Fill with fresh flowers on special occasions and european silk flowers for everyday. Use tone-on-tone colors such as white-on-white. Big blossoms say luxury.-Lighting can set a glam mood. Picture lights, up-lights behind sofas and potted green plants and candles on pillar style holders in big scale say drama. Don't forget to put table lamps, sconces and recessed cans on dimmers.-Shimmer and shine. Chrome, crystal and shiny fabrics like velvet can zip up a tired look. Large mirrors with silvered frames add punch and reflect the glamour from around the room.-Furniture paint finishes add luxe. Glossy paint and lacquer looks say quality. Opt for black when in doubt. Antique white works best in bedrooms.-Paint walls deep rich colors. Ming red, dark brown and turquoise are great backdrops for glamorous furnishings.-Fabrics can balance dramatic statements. Raw silk and linen in solid colors complement glamour touches.Mark Nash's fourth real estate book, "1001 Tips for Buying and Selling a Home" (2005), and working as a real estate broker in Chicago are the foundation for his consumer-centric real estate perspective which has been featured.
