So, before these trendy styles explode in popularity and price, make sure to start planning some of these hot new updates, upgrades, and remodels to welcome in a new year of comfort and beauty!

One of the most affordable remodels for 2015 is a refocusing on accent pieces toward rich metallic tones: deep coppers, bronze, gold, and even crisp silver. This is a major departure from the stainless steel saga of the past few years and can beautifully lend a classy elegance to catch the eye. Trendsetters recommend a careful hand with these accents since too much can overwhelm the room but with a bit of creativity and an eye for design homeowners can install all the stunning new hardware, fixtures, and accents without having to turn to professionals for assistance.


All Things Eco for Materials, Colors, and Power Sources
