It doesn't take maximum money to make maximum impact in your home.
Hollywood interior designer Nicole Sassaman, who recently completed her hundredth home renovation, says that all it takes are a few savvy design ideas to add value to your home — no matter your budget.
The home-flipper extraordinaire, author of the new book 100 Sassy Tips: Renovations, believes in reusing and repurposing whenever possible. "I don't want to cry over what I don't have," she says. "I'd rather ask, 'What do we have?' because that's how you create things no one else has."
