Avoiding Decorating Mistakes

Before you buy furniture, make sure it will pass through the door of the room and that it is not too tall for the height of the room. You don't want to have to cut a hole in the floor or wall so it will fit.

Ordering furniture from a website. Make sure to check the dimensions. You don't want to mistakenly wind up with children's furniture or doll furniture.

Be sure to measure the width, height and length of furniture and compare it to the space in the room. If you buy furniture that is too big, you'll be really limited on arrangement configurations.

If you buy furniture that is too small, it will feel dwarfed and you'll have to buy more to make up the difference.
