Decorating apps/websites to help with design?

13 years ago

Does anyone know of any decorating apps or websites that you can put all of your specific selections in and see what it will look like as a finished room? This would help me IMMENSELY! Or I have seen people post pics of their kitchen with different backsplash tiles inserted into the photo so they can see what it would look like...only I need it for all elements of the kitchen.

I recently stumbled upon the site called homestyler.com and though I didn't dig into it very much, it seems to be what you are looking for.

Adding to the question and bumping it up.
I notice a few people here using Sketchup. I went to their site, but didn't spend a lot of time on the tutorials.
Is it only useful if you buy the paid version? The free version looks like it's designed as graphics for kids. Is the learning curve steep?
