I have some interior decorating problems?
Question:I need some ideas on how to decorate the inside of my home. My husband and I have lived there almost 2 years and have to do any decorating. Does anyone know of any websites that can help me with this?
Answers:
Home and garden TV, HGTV, has good ideas on the web. You can look at different styles and see what sort of rooms look most appealing to you. Then you can Google those decorating styles that you prefer and get more details. It's also useful to look at rooms in furniture stores and discuss with your husband what he likes. And you may want to assess the furnishings you already own and see whether you can get inspired from those. For instance, a painting you love can give you ideas for walls and woodwork.
try hgtv.com they have a lot of stuff to help you out.

Watch HGTV on tv and also start picking up magazines you see things you like. Also home depot have lots of magazines devoted to specific room. I always use neutral paints and my off white linen couches. This was I can redocrate fairly cheaply by changing things like the throw pilows and suCH Pick a favorate color and us it for accent to tie rooms together but do nt use it as the main thig like paint. You can get tred of red easiy.
Try MarthaStewart.com! Her website is full of ideas. Sometimes it's helpful to go to a store that has home furnishings just to get ideas of what you like for room decor and designs. Places like Pottery Barn or furniture stores sometimes have little "rooms" set up.
If you're interested in painting your rooms (which is always a good place to start because it's relatively inexpensive, but makes a big difference), you might want to go to www.behr.com or www.bejaminmoore.com. Both companies have pre-determined color palates. They also have programs you can purchase that allow you to download a digital picture of your room and virtually "paint" it so you can see how the colors will look before committing. Pretty cool! I got the Benjamin Moore one for $10 and it was very helpful.
Good luck! I'm sure you'll do a great job. It's often just hard finding the time to do these things!
