Profession Decorating Advice

RE: Profession Decorating Advice Post By rr (Guest Post) (10/27/2006) I have several built in book shelves, but not a lot of books. I love the look of a book collection, let's say of an Encyclopedia-esque nature. However, I don't have a book collection with that look - only paperbacks! What's an affordable way to fill these shelves with the look I want, without having to buy an Encyclopedia Collection that I'm never going to read?

You can hire a decorator by the hour, and be sure s/he is experienced in layout problems.

Draw the room on paper, cut the furniture out in pieces, and move it around unti it works.

Be sure to write down all their suggestions then pay them for the consultation and work from their ideas. You don't have to "hire" them to do the work, you only pay for the one time consultation visit which may be expensive, but in the long run I believe it's the most economical way to address the problem.
