But when it comes to decorating your home, should you do it, or should you hire an interior designer? Here are a few factors you need to consider before you take the plunge.
Experience & Preference
Let’s face it, when it comes to decorating, a professional has more experience than you probably do. However, it all boils down to your preference. You have more knowledge about what you want in interior design than any professional. So you need to take into account the preference more than the experience.
Financial Budget
Your financial budget is also one of the most important factors is your budget. Interior designers can be really expensive, depending on what you need to be done. If you choose to hire an interior designer, decide first on how much you want to spend. On the other hand, it will be cheaper to do the design yourself, you can even design the room piece by piece.
Your Personal Style

Once you feel like your final design is achieved on paper, you can start canvassing and asking designers for their quote on how much it would cost. This way, you have an idea of how much you need to spend.
