How to decide on your room decorating budget

Here’s a small step-by-step plan you can follow to pick a budget that’s reasonable for your situation:

  1. Measure the room (sq ft)
  2. Decide what elements you need: furniture, lighting, dΓ©cor, cabinetry, floor/wall finishes etc.
  3. Choose your quality level: basic, mid-range, or premium
  4. Get quotes for each component: furniture, labour, materials etc.
  5. Include a buffer of 10-20% for unexpected costs.

If you tell me your room’s size, what level of finish you want (basic / mid / premium), and what the room is (bedroom / living room / study etc.), I can give you a custom estimate for your room.
