So, where do you start? What do you want the theme to be? Maybe beach theme bedrooms, nautical theme design, country themed? When you look at magazines what designs do you see that catch you eye? Do you look through Elle Decor, Home Magazine, Better Homes and Gardens or Metropolitan Home. These are some different styles.
After you've decided on the theme the next thing is to start with the furniture. That is the biggest and hardest to move and place. Move it to where you think but then get a second opinion from an San Diego interior designer or San Diego interior decorator like me and re-work the room and the colors you want. Think about the feel of the room. What colors do you like and especially do not like. That's important - what is important? Photos? Art, etc. People collect for a reason. Let's show off your collection! That is why you bought it in the first place! Also, have fun, this is your home, not your business. This is the place to relax and enjoy!
I am a big believer that even though a move is very stressful; by using the services of a interior designer or interior decorator, this can be a smooth transaction. Also, a good one has a suggested list of people I have worked with over many years that can help you do the things you need. From a housekeeper, to a handyman, to an electrican. You name it, I probably have them on my speed dial list.
Also, really think about the color you and if you have a husband, what he likes. Maybe he likes cool tones- blues, greens, etc and you like warm tones. There are ways to blend them together to create a seamless fit. That is why using an interior design firm is a good way to bounce ideas to make both of your dreams come true.
Now that you learned some new tips, have fun working in your new home. Remember that using the help of an interior designer will make moving less stressful to you and your loved ones.
