Guides To Interior DesignWritten by Rosemary Leake
Continued from page 1
There are advantages of television guides to interior design and there are disadvantages as well. The advantages are, of course, that information provided is likely to be based on recent, popular design trends and most of them are relatively easy to incorporate into any setting. Many guides to interior design based upon information shown on television also offer how-advice and at times even troubleshooting information just in case you hit a rough spot in your application. Beware of shows that dedicate their designs to work that showcases particular products or collections. These types of designs are often costly in nature and if you improvise it is very possible to create same type of effect based upon a similar idea-using cheaper supplies. If all else fails, you can always fall back onto your creative vision. Cut clippings from magazines and advertisements that present a particular design or feeling that you would like to recreate. Once you have established a relatively large collection, go through clippings and write down similarities in designs that help incorporate particular look you want. By doing this, you can combine information you have collected and create your own personal space-designed especially for you

Also, keep in mind that collectibles often times are of less significance to smaller children then are to adults so make sure that any item placed in a child’s room is not of significant fiscal or sentimental value just in case! Tying in interior design for children can be accomplished easily by purchasing one of millions of available bed treatments that is complimentary to designs and themes used in creation of room layout as well as fitting in well with accessories chosen. Many bed treatment packages come prepackaged with matching detailed sheets, a comforter, dust ruffle, and window coverings. These items can bring a room together in greatest of all fashions and are an option in interior design for children that are obtainable by anyone looking to make a change. Always remember when planning interior design for children that a child changes attitudes, opinions, and behaviors around every three years. Permanent changes of any type are a big no-no and practical, cost effective ones are ideal. A good furniture tip to remember when designing for kids is to buy reasonably priced, sound furniture that doesn’t break bank. Kids are even harder on furniture then they are on clothes! And most importantly to take into consideration when working with interior design for children--of course, HAVE FUN!!!
