Decorating your home is like the completion of the "1000 mile journey"... you begin it and finish it "one step at a time".

Decorating a room entails the same thought processes as planning for a specific type of party like a birthday party, or a halloween party.

What all will I need to create this atmosphere for this specific party? Will I need orange and black paper mache to place over the walls to create the colors for the perfect halloween decor? Will I need fake spider webs to place in the corners?

How about the decorative accents like carved out pumpkins, and black cat statues and rubber spiders and things? And the more you "think about it", the more specific you will be. And, the more choices you will have.

When decorating a room, think about what the room will be used for. WIll it be primarily for entertaining guests? Then, maybe I should add tile or wood floors instead of carpet? Should I paint the walls soft pastels for the serenity, or should I use bright colors for the stimulating effect? One would work well, and the other wouldn't. A little thought before you begin goes a long way when you are trying to decorate a room.

There's an old saying among carpenters... "measure twice and cut once" which really fits here. Think carefully about what kind of atmosphere you want to have, what decorative accents you will need and so on.

Its a lot of work, really, but the joys of having done it yourself will make you forget about all the planning and effor that went into it.

Some of you will know what colors you will want, know what the room will be used for, and even know what the best decorative accents should be, but just don't quite know how to put it all together. Remember, the internet is a wealth of knowledge and if you will do the research you will probably find the help you need.

If you need help putting it all together or just need someone to walk you through it, be sure to consider "Decor Doc" decorating via the internet! The small investment for this service, is well worth it!

Either way, go slowly, do a lot of planning, and go for it! Happy Decorating!
