Decorating can be tricky, and there are a few things to consider before starting to decorate.
I love decorating. It gives me a dose of happiness and changes the atmosphere in the home.
Although it is quite fun, it can sometimes be frustrating when you don’t know what matches what and what furniture piece goes in which room.
To make sure you will end up with something you love, ask yourself these questions beforehand and then start decorating!

1) Do I Have The Correct Measurements For My Space?
Often times we splurge on buying items for our space because we are so excited to decorate. This can lead to things not fitting since we didn’t even measure the room or items.
Make sure you take that extra time to double-check the measurements!
2) Is The Wall Paint Color Going To Go Well With All Of My Furniture?
Choose a wall paint color that will go great with the furniture pieces you are using or the decor pieces that you will be hanging up. This will save any decor from clashing!
3) Am I Buying This Decor Item Because I love It Or Because It’s On Sale?
Don’t let that “sale” sign lure you in! Sure it is amazing to see it on the item you have been eyeing, but if you are just passing by some decor items and want to buy them because they’re on sale and you might like them in the future -don’t buy them!
You might end up with a room you don’t fully enjoy!
4) What Atmosphere Am I Trying To Achieve?
When decorating a room, you have to decide what you are trying to achieve with it. Maybe it’s something towards the cozier side or maybe something light with plants. Having your decision made will help guide you towards it with the decor pieces.
5) Am I Choosing This style Because Everyone Else Is Or Because I Genuinely Love It?
A lot of times we just go for a style simply because everyone else is. Make sure what you choose is actually what you want for yourself and your space!
6) How Can I Make This Cozy Yet Keep It Decluttered?
More things in a room don’t make it “cozy”. Keep the extra things out so your mind can relax in the room too!
