Some faded walls, an older room

Worn out furniture, a sense of gloom

On a budget or not, a makeover is needed

Top it off with imagination required

Redecorating!

If the task seems impossible

May be it's time for the unthinkable

Hire the help of a professional

This way you'll opt for unconventional

Redecorating!

Brainstorming with the decorator

For new ideas for the interior

Agree on suggestions of decoration

After all, it's time to take action

Redecorating!

A palette of colors, samples of materials

Drawings and portfolios make it official

Changes are in the air with results pending

Your choices will make the new look refreshing

Redecorating!

The smell of freshly painted walls

The new paintings hung in the hall

New window treatments added

The latest fashions to be presented

Redecorating!

Carpets, rugs and wooden floors

Came through the front door

Out went the old, in came the new

Everywhere you could see the crew

Redecorating!

Chemicals, sawdust and paint cans

Of all this mess I was no fan

As progress showed its face

I came to appreciate my new place

Redecorating!

As the final touch was made today

I saw it had to be done this way

The face lift my home needed so badly

Was worth every penny spent rightfully

Redecorating!

My beloved home would thank me if it could

As it escaped the past as it should

Its new appearance is fresh and bright

Its new look fill my dreams at night

Redecorating!
