Maybe you just bought a house or you’re looking to make a change to your well-loved home, but you aren’t sure where to start. Here are three tips to help you start the interior decorating process.

Consider your priorities
Before you start approaching companies or tearing out your cabinets, first think about your priorities. What can you absolutely not live without? This answer might come from what you decide the purpose of the room is.

If you’re redesigning your kitchen, you might decide you’d like a small eating area where you and your partner can enjoy breakfast together. You might consider your current living room and realize you never watch your enormous television, so you decide to create a clever hiding space for it (after all, you’ll still need it for the big game).

Be realistic with yourself during this phase: if your living room does not have space for a large sectional, you might not want to make that a priority. Consider the space, your current needs, and any future needs that…

The Desk
Place atleast one object on your table that is made by you. One such idea is to create your own calendar and add personal touch to it.
For this, you could use an old spiral diary with atleast 12 pages, placing the diary such that its vertical edges form the base. Now, let us personalise each month –  mark each month on a different page and paste one of your favorite pictures clicked in the same month last year on each of those. You could choose pictures taken on a holiday, or the ones where you have the picture credits – basically anything that triggers happy memories.
You could place a little flap to cover each week, and lift it up every Monday to uncover the new week. Scribble one of your favorite quotes on that flap, or simply a lesson learnt in the week that just passed.
The Walls
Let us begin with the easiest piece, the wall with the largest window.
Besides choosing the right curtains and shades, personalize your window. Wind chimes are a beautiful thing to suspend by your w…

Beds & bedding
Depending on your child’s age, it might be time to consider getting a full-size bed in place of their twin bed. If you have the space, a full-size bed is optimal because it’ll give them a big enough bed to sleep in until they move out. In addition, full-size beds are great for accommodating for overnight guests.

Home renovations can be tough to estimate. People tend to wildly underestimate how much time and money they’ll need to spend to do things like renovate their kitchen or expand their garage. What you want to cost $10,000 may cost three or four times that. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try, only that you need to be realistic about what you’re getting into. That includes separating the good reasons for a home makeover from the bad reasons. Being bored isn’t usually a good reason. However, here are three good reasons to go ahead with that home renovation project.
Your Home is Unsafe
A leaky roof may seem harmless in the short-term, but a leaky roof can lead to mold, and mold can lead to health problems. And while you may not think it’s a big deal if one or two of your outlets don’t work right, it could mean the house’s entire wiring was installed incorrectly. Bad wiring puts you at a higher risk for a house fire, so that means you need to call an electrical contractor in Marlboro, NJ, ri…
