When should you hire a designer or decorator? And what's with the money?

Many times people have come into our store and want to browse they merchandise while holding something from home. Some people know exactly what they want, while others roam the store looking clueless. While we are always there to help and provide advise, people don't always know what they want which makes it hard for us, especially because we've never even seen the space.

SO, the question on the table is this--When are design services a good route for you? 

When you happen to become one of our many customers not knowing what they want, know YOU ARE NOT ALONE! So many people have "Pinterested" so much they have a million ideas and can't narrow it down, or they are just having what I call "Designers Block" (Something this intern gets all too often with school projects and in everyday life.. I blame social media...).

Whenever your in a jam, designers and decorators are great to brainstorm with, they have lots of ideas and books, and experience! Okay, I know what you're thinking, "Yeah, if I want to spend a small fortune!" However, a design consultation or two is very affordable and can be just what you need to get your creative juices flowing again, or even have them do some of the hard work for you!

Decorators and Designers are not after your money, remember, this is just how they make their money. Creative Interiors Designer, Elizabeth Barton, is a very affordable and flexible designer when it come to style. She can tell you first hand, she works with the everyday people almost always, not the Millionaires with buckets of money.


So remember a decorator or designer is a GREAT tool to use, whether its for a breakfast nook, or an entire house, they can help with it all!
