Take your time on any buying decisions. If contemporary is your style, don’t buy something traditional because it’s on sale. Many home furnishers offer interior design consultations or room planning guides to get you started. Whether you decide to work with a home decor specialist or to become your own expert, it’s important not to rush the furniture-buying process.

Have fun creating spaces that reflect your personality and style preferences. The main factor in dressing up any room is the furniture, while accessories like decorative wall shelves and lighting are like a room’s jewelry. Whatever your style, surround yourself with accessories and products that you’ll enjoy.

What if you aren’t ready to splurge on new furniture? Some new artwork or a new area rug can go a long way toward updating a room. When it comes to freshening things up, don’t rule out small home accessory items, like a new table lamp or wall clock.

Here are some basic questions to ask before visiting furniture makers or buying furniture and accessories:

• What is my budget?
  
• What is the room used for and how large is the space?
  
• What are my must-have furniture items?
  
• Am I looking for heirloom-quality home furnishings or collection pieces?
  
• Do I need custom-made items?
