Moving into your new home is such an exciting time in your life, but it does not end there—it’s time to start decorating! Getting started can seem like an overwhelming task since you have so much to do at once. You want your new house to represent a certain style, while creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. With so much to consider it is reasonable to feel flustered, but don’t worry, Pauline Poyner is here to give you a hand! Sure, she can help you find the ideal home for you and your family but she won’t leave you hanging! To help you fill that home with the finest décor, here are some home decorating ideas!

Budget

First, before anything else you should set a budget. As much as we would all love to have an endless supply of funds to decorate with, this just is not realistic. You should put a cap on that decorating budget of yours so you don’t start reaching out of your price range. Now that this is out of the way, the fun begins!

Theme

Start by choosing a style that you want. This can be modern, contemporary, traditional, eclectic, European, country or anything else you desire! Perhaps there is a more specific theme you are looking to portray such as a rustic Tuscan home, a Spanish villa, or a tropical escape. Keep your style or styles in mind when it comes time to taking the next steps.

Furniture

Once you have decided on a style, pull out your trusty notebook and start sketching out each room. Make some notes on what furniture is a must have for the room and identify which items must be brand new. You can make great statements in your home with new pieces and quality pieces you can refurbish, found through garage sales, flea markets and auctions.

Paint

Next it’s time to start thinking color. A useful tip is to start with an accent piece that you have already purchased, or are searching for and work from there. Begin choosing your colors for your floorings and walls after you pulled out the colors from this piece.

Decorate!

Now that you are finished with the walls, it is time to start filling the space! Hopefully you have some furniture purchased after going around to stores. You can set up the room, and then add the accessories! Remember, you do not need to go with traditional accents or furniture. Feel free to be creative and experiment with unique objects, such as using an old trunk as a table! Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, you can fix anything and sometimes mistakes end up being even better than you planned!

Now that your style and budget is locked down, don’t let anything stand in the way of creating that perfect home! But remember, before you can start decorating, you need a house!
