Claudia Shannon of Jonesboro understands how stressful redecorating can be, writes Cheree Franco in HomeStyle.
“We didn’t used to have all of those home shows and all of these Internet sites. … My clients are having a much harder time these days because they’re bombarded by what’s out there, and they think they have to look at every bit of it before making a decision,” says the 45-year interior design veteran.
Take, for example, her client who was agonizing over 40 samples of paint, most of them variations of gray.
To help others avoid the 40 shades of gray dilemma, Shannon and other Arkansas-based designers share some of their favorite tips for decorating in Saturday’s Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
