Take
everything out of the room you want to decorate. Take everything off the
walls and remove all the furniture. If you are going to keep some items,
just push them out of the way for the time being.
Try to work with a theme. Like if you are going to
decorate the bathroom, and you want ducks or other pond creatures to be
involved that would be your theme.
If you have chosen to paint, be sure to cover the
floor and any other furniture that you may have left in the room. Take
off any outlet covers you have and tape the edge of your baseboards and
windows. Water based paint is best indoors and the clean up is very
easily done. Make sure everything is dry before moving your furniture
around.
Move your larger pieces of furniture first so that you
are certain that there is enough room for everything. You want to also
ensure that your smaller pieces are accented appropriately so that the
room seems balanced. Don’t be afraid to move things around and play with
new ideas.
Lamps are a great idea. They are a great compliment
for a room and helps with lighting which can also set the tone of the
room.
Also an area rug is always a great addition. It can
add interest to a room and define and bring out other areas of the room.
