It all begins with an idea. But before you get started, make a list of which rooms need the most attention . Once you've determined the rooms that have the highest priority, it's time to create a budget. The KEY is to stick to your budget. Incorporate secondhand and vintage with some high quality furniture and accessories that is unique to you. This way you can splurge on pieces with ones that are more affordable.

The little things make the biggest difference when it comes to decorating a room. Changes like new pillows, curtains, lamps, art work, rugs (I love a room with a great rug!) makes a huge difference in the appearance of a room. You'd be surprised at the outcome.

Sometimes all you need to refresh that space you love so much is to experiment with different furniture layouts. See what works best with what you already have because it doesn't cost a thing. While your at it declutter by getting rid of furniture and decor. It's the easiest way to make your home feel larger.
