Hi everyone! My husband and I recently purchased a home and plan to move into it soon but we have a couple of problems.
1) We need to furnish the entire thing!
2) We love the home but need to put our stamp on it. My husband is adamant in keeping the ceilings as they are. Me, not so much. I may have to sit this battle out and give him his way because I will be making the decisions with the decorating aspect of this project. The previous owners apparently traveled the world quite often and spent A LOT of money on bringing the places they visited into their home. The kitchen is French inspired while the formal living room (shown in the photo) was inspired by a trip to Italy or something. I can't recall. We are eager to make it our own but don't know where to start. We are very serious about hiring an interior decorator who lives here in the United States and wouldn't mind traveling to where we live so he or she can basically help us select colors, furnishings and all those lovely things to make this space livable. Please advise on any ideas. We are opened to professional and non-professional opinions and suggestions. Any leads as to who we can hire would be excellent. Thank you!!
