The Command team of experts share some smart, yet simple tips to rejuvenate the home.
Spring is an ideal time for this and it doesn’t need to involve extreme and troublesome DIY, it just takes a little encouragement.
The team uses 3M’s range of Command Products – these are creative adhesive strips and hooks, which enable you to hang decorations, mirrors or pictures without the hassle of nails, screws or tacks.
Make storage attractive
- Sorting out your storage is a great job for spring. There is nothing more satisfying then having everything ordered and looking lovely. Interior Designer, Pippa Jameson, shares her top tips on how to turn a cupboard into a gorgeous visual feature:
- Make sure you use a suitable cupboard that has sufficient space for the project. If you haven’t got one at home then try your local second hand furniture shops, jumble sales, reclamation yards or your local newspaper. A French dresser will work just as well as a cupboard
- Be sure to clean your cupboard with soapy water before painting.
- Choose a paint that complements your existing decor. I would advise leaving the cupboard to air for a few days before you place any food inside.
- Make sure the shelf heights are suitable for the items that you place inside. It often works to have smaller items that you use regularly such as condiments, spices, and herbs at the top and larger objects such as vases at the bottom
- The easy to apply, easy to remove Command Mini Hooks work well for hanging light weight items inside the cupboard, such as tea-towels whilst Command Wire Hooks are great for small tea cups and utensils
- Command Picture Clips can be used on the inside of the doors, to neatly hang up all of your loose recipes.
- To add a decorative feel to the cupboard you can use Command Medium Picture Hanging Strips to display plates on the back wall to create a striking feature.
Adhering strongly to wood, tile, metal or painted surfaces, Command Products can change the way that you hang almost anything and when in the future you require another look and style, the strips and hooks can be removed from walls quickly and easily without leaving any marks.
