Starting the New Year off Right!


There's never a dull moment in our office meetings! 

What We're Loving

Hey everyone! Cornerstone here to say Welcome to 2014! Cornerstone is really pumped for this new year. It's gonna be awesome. 

Here are a couple of things we're loving lately:

Utilizing Pinterest to show clients how to stage homes. 
Pinterest is awesome because in one place, you can find lots of visual examples of awesome home remodels, staging tips, and decoration syles that all link back to original posts with further directions and tips. 

here are some of our favorite staging and decorating boards.




Houzz is a really sweet decorating and designing website. Go through hundreds of thousands of home layouts, rooms, decor, and other special features like cabinets, countertops, and flooring. Each item is "tagged" and you can order the item directly from the site. Pretty cool huh? This site is awesome for planning a dream home, finding ideas if you're building or remodeling, or even just for fun. 


Organized Homes. 
What's better than having an organized home? We would argue, nothing. What better time than the first of the year to kickstart your organization efforts? We all know that kids, daily traffic through the home, and typical messes are hard to keep under control, and more often than not our homes are taking the brunt of it! No worries though, some organization is always better than none. Here are some awesome tips to help you keep everything in it's place- including your peace of mind. 



Have an awesome week, and stay tuned for more tips & tricks!

New Styles for 2014: Color Trends

Are you putting your home on the market in early 2014 and are looking for staging ideas, thinking of redecorating your home for a more modern look, or just want to refresh the look of your home? Look no further because in this post we're going to be looking at popular color trends for this upcoming year. 

Picking colors for your home is ultimately a personal choice- but there's definitely something to be said about uniformity and neutrals when you're looking to sell. Accent pieces and colors are still ever popular, and HGTV's Kelley Walters put it perfectly. She says: 

"The housing crisis, ongoing war, historic election and economic downturn have combined to shape Americans' color tastes. We're searching for the color equivalent of mac and cheese: safe, traditional and comforting. But the pops of bright colors, from crimson to acid yellow, suggest that we're ultimately hopeful about the future."


This living room is an excellent example of a neutral color palette with accents. The grey, cream, and dark brown in complimented with the orange in the flowers on the ottoman and mantle.
Here's some other examples of beautiful neutral palettes: 


Popular accent colors we've seen lately are bright yellows and greens, and dark wine-colored purples. Chocolate brown is on the way out, but brown is "...still the go-to color in nearly every industry, from auto manufacturing to fashion to home." Camel, tans, and other lighter browns are very fashionable right now.

Gray is still the number one neutral- and for good reason! It goes with pretty much everything.

Other great accents that are becoming part of the "in crowd" include pinks and reds of all shades, as well as gold and orange. 

What do you think of neutral color palettes?

New Agent Highlight: Sid Roderer

Sid Roderer is one of our newest agents here at Cornerstone! Here's a little bit more about her:


 "I have lived in Cache Valley for 2.5 yrs. now.  I really love Lewiston, for its great community and wonderful views of the surrounding mountains. My family enjoys having our own theater in town. I have been in the business here for almost 2 years, but I have worked as a Real Estate Agent in Switzerland for a few years before we relocated to Cache Valley. I guess I am the only female Realtor in this valley that rides her own motorcycle. I am obviously fluent in German and Swiss-German, had four years of French in High School and I am working on my Spanish."

We are so glad Sid is in our office. For help with anything Real Estate from Sid, don't hesitate to contact her.
