Where and how do I begin my home-decorating project?
This is the first dilemma and sometimes the most overwhelming part of decorating a room or home. Knowing where to begin and having a picture in your mind of what you want the room or home to look like is just not reality for many women. It can be very confusing, however if you follow some basic rules of thumb and do a little research, you will be surprised at your ability to create a beautiful room/home. The best way to start any project is to find a key/inspiration item. This may be a print fabric, artwork, area rug, bedspread etc. – The idea is to find the key item that has a color palette you are attracted to, and then build the room or home around this key item. Adding the second, third, fourth colors etc., of your key item in other fabrics, accents, artwork, accessories, florals etc. Without this key piece, there is no direction, you could end up all over the place with color choices, and the end result would probably be disappointing. This question and dilemma is what inspired me to create the Decorator Secrets Color Scheme Guides. They provide an instant visual tool for you to know what colors you like best, as well as giving you approximately 12 coordinating fabrics, wallpapers etc. to cover an average size home. The color guide is the perfect catalyst to get you started in the right direction without making costly mistakes.
