where I live, seems like they always pick people in California. i was going to pay someone, one lady charging $200 per room and where I bought my furniture a lady said would stage for $75.00. I so disliked the way I had my grand room sit up but unbelievable, my SIL visited this past week and she LOVES to decorate. We had the guys hanging the paintings, mirrors and the really heavy stuff and moving the furniture and she placed it and I love it. I watch that channel all the time, though and get so much good information out of it.

Decorating help
Anyone have any suggestions about how to "revitalize" old paneling. Bought an old mobile home and do not want to take paneling out, I heard you could paint over it but not sure how it would work. Any suggestions, looking to change it from dark and "office" looking to something lighter and more like a home.
Decorating question
Can those prepasted floor ties that come in boxes be used on walls, like for a back splash in a kitchen? They would be put over an existing shiny surface.
I am soooo decorating challenged and need help. I want to put some color
on my bedrom walls, I'm thinking a light sage color. If I paint the walls the sage color, does the ceiling get painted the same or an off/white? If I paint the ceiling the same color as the walls wont the room feel much smaller and "cave" like? I have comforter with olive, sage, dark brown colors. Average size room with windows on 2 walls so there will be light coming in.
Thanks for your ideas.
Might even find info on decorating w/them on HGTV.

I'm getting ready to buy a fixer upper and do all my decorating and designing myself. SM
So I've been watching him and a lot of the other HGTV design shows, etc. I want to save money, but I want everything too look expensive, ya know?
I loved what he did with the silk too, but problem is I don't sew. I don't even know how to operate a sewing machine, soooooooo anybody wanna make a buck? :)

Need help with ideas for remodeling house and decorating. We bought a house
in fair condition about 10 years ago, got into some medical problems, and have just now paid off the mortgage. Hubby and I agreed we would do nothing to the house for remodeling because we wanted to pay it off first, then the medical bills. I need to know of some websites/magazines/books to start researching for how to go about this. These will be major repairs - roof, septic, basement, windows, pretty much everything except wiring. Where do we start? Maybe hire a general contractor just to do an evaluation and give us recommendations? Hubby is a handyman but cant seem to get a handle on where to begin. We would like to do as much of the work ourselves as possible - labor of love and all that...
Thanks for any and all kind suggestions!
