Many of us don\u2019t know where to start with a clean slate, but it is easier than you think. You can enlist in the service of an interior designer for suggestions, such as our own <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hickoryfurniture.com\/services.cfm#decorating\">Designing Women<\/a>, Inc., or tackle it on your own after careful consideration.<\/p>\n<h2>These steps will help you make the decision<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Determine your needs<\/strong> and how you want to use the room. Do you need extra storage? Will it be a gathering space that requires a certain amount of seating? Who will primarily be using this room? Is there enough light<\/li>\n<li><strong>Take a measurement of the room<\/strong> and include doors and windows. Does the room have an important focal point, such as a fireplace or a fantastic view? These are considerations to work around. Determining the seating arrangement is crucial to a great space.<\/li>\n<li>Once you have a handle on the general layout, think about <strong>the colors you want to use<\/strong>. What do you have in the rest of the house? It is very important that your rooms flow with consistent color schemes. If the colors choices are wide open, consider starting with a new rug to define the space and palette, or even a brilliant piece of art. These are the anchor pieces that you or a designer can easily spin a whole room scheme around.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once you have created a list of the items you need, head for the <a href=\"\/stores\/\">North Carolina furniture stores and outlets<\/a> to do some shopping. Here you will find an abundance of choices in the right size, color, style, etc. Visiting the NC furniture retailers within Hickory Furniture Mart and working with our professionals will help you make the right choices for your budget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Updated Thursday, March 25, 2010 You have an empty room to decorate in your home \u2013 it is either your worst nightmare or cause for celebration.
