Meeting Your Needs

Most people don't realize you can call on a designer for almost any decorating need. They'll spend an hour helping you choose color or take more time to plan a floor-to-ceiling redo.

Be prepared to discuss your wishes for the project, your budget range, and a total cost ceiling. That way, your designer can guide you on ways to economize in some areas so you can splurge on something wonderful somewhere else.

Read on for tips on getting the help you want at a price you can afford.
