Home Design and Decor

Do you like to decorate your room?  When you walk into a room, do you know exactly what colors and what furniture would look great in that space?   Do you like to experiment with colors and try different types of colors on your walls?   Do you know what paint color or wallpaper would brighten a room?  How do you create a feeling of coziness in a family room?  Being an interior designer is all about making a house a home.  The Home Decor project gives you an opportunity to examine space, both inside and out.
