How to Choose Your Decorating Style & Use a Design Plan
Posted by Ragan Corliss on January 16, 2010 · 6 Comments
Choosing your decorating style can be a fun experience but also challenging. The biggest problems I see people run into is they don’t stick with a style, but instead pursue their interior decorating without a plan and begin purchasing items that often times don’t enhance their décor or go with their style.
