A large bed in a small room is only going to serve to make it feel even smaller. A large bed

will also limit the space that is available for furniture.

If you've got a small home, you can have multipurpose rooms where everything fits together.

For example, some homes use one area for both the dining and living spaces. The dining

table for this type of space should complement the furniture in the living room area. Shopping

for both spaces at once is a great idea. Try to find pieces that coordinate.

Only wallpaper half of your wall. Redecorating your walls can cost a lot of money. Try

wallpapering only half of the wall to save some cash. Try wallpapering only the bottom half of

a wall, and then use a wood or wallpaper border where the wallpaper ends to make it look

finished. Most people don't think to do this, so you will find others envying your walls that you

did at half the cost!

Consider your style when you design rooms. While it is great to design a space that

welcomes friends and family, remember that you will be spending the most time there. With

that said, do what you want, even if you are afraid that someone else might not like it. The

decision is yours alone. If you decide that you are not pleased with the look, fix it.

Shop at yard sales and flea markets for a cheap lamp. A nice touch would be to add a new

lamp shade that can be place in different areas to give your room a whole new look. You will

save a lot of money by not having bought a new lamp.

Whenever your child's room is being designed, make sure you keep your child's taste in

mind. It's easy to forget kids won't look at their rooms the way you do. Be sure they can

easily access everything. You should also be alert to any objects in the room that could

present a potential danger to your children.

One fast way to update a room is concentrating on the accessories. Changing the accent

pieces like lamps and fans is a great place to start. New curtains or throw pillows can make a

world of difference. Little changes like these give your spaces a fresher appeal and are

inexpensive.

As you put together a budget for interior design, keep your goals at the front of your mind.

Pick your highest priorities to accomplish, and decide the most you are willing to pay. If you

skip this step, your project will probably wind up costing you more than you wanted.

The proper amount and placement of light is crucial to any design project. There are many

ways to get light into any room, such as skylights, windows and even mirrors. You can

combine all these effects. Proper lighting helps set the mood of a room. A formerly bland

space can get an eye-popping kick.

Add some fun and color to a room by hand-painting clay planters to match your decor.

Children often enjoy decorating these pots as well, and they can be used for storage in their

rooms.
