But, change is in your designer-blood, so can't wait to see what's next.

Some of these rooms look like they were done with the help of a girlfriend at a slumber party. Cut coupons, but please get professional help even if for one element at a time. Have a master plan. A designer will work with you in achieving your look if you show you have a vision. Stop the madness of decorating by "blog".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-462500305642907315.post-54578427262795555392010-01-14T16:49:14.673-06:002010-01-14T16:49:14.673-06:00Thanks for featuring my room!
