Any decoration and interior enthusiasts?

Better than this:

LOL!

Don't rush in to things - that normally results in mistakes.

 

Get your inspiration from magazines, newspapers, internet (get brochures from b and q - paint manufacturers, interior furnishing shops, etc) and make up a board of your favourite pictures - some might be of a whole room or hallway, some might just be of one object you really like - keep at it - and then after a few weeks, review everything you've got, weed out what doesn't appeal anymore and look for any common themes amongst your pictures - eg colour, textures, light, etc

 

Of course, you could do a virtual 'board' if you prefer.

 

Start from there. I love stuff like this.

 

THANKS! Virtual boards are a good idea.

It's not really my thing, I'm looking for a change.

I'm worried that I will just buy a lot of stuff that doesn't go together!

 

If you like it it'll go together..unless you're taking into consideration the Jones's?..Which begs the question 'who are you decorating for'?
