Think Bella! – “Before & After Pictures… Everyone Loves Them!”

Posted on March 26, 2013

Are you just starting a New Project? Find your camera and always take many “Before Pictures”, when starting a new project. It is so important to have Before & After picture. When the pictures are placed side by side, you can determine and truly measure the level of drama you have created with your talented team of Artisans and Interior Designers. For some projects, you may not raise the “Wow Bar” very high at all. Which could be disappointing. But for other projects, it may be hard to measure “The Wow Effect” you have created. You will hear comments from family and friends for years to come…

My middle son David, and co-owner of Bella Faux Finishes, has also been working on another project. David and Amber are proud to announce the birth of their new Son, “Owen James Nordgren” on March 26, 2013. We are so happy and proud of both of them! Kathy and I are Grandparents for the first time, which is Very Exciting!

So if you are just starting a new project, whether its a new baby or a New Home or Remodeling project, it is so important to choose your team members wisely. Meet with them and ask many questions. Learn more about their talents, credibility and trustworthiness. View their portfolio of projects and Testimonials. Ask to see their Before & After project pictures. Notice your level of emotion when you are looking at each one them. Are they truly unique? Do you want your project to be different from every other home? Are feeling a sense of Wow or very little drama at all?
