Your best bet is to use free design services from stores. Furniture stores have them, blinds/shades places have them, paint stores have them. By their powers combined, you’ll have what you need. Do your best to collect samples and communicate clearly among them.

I would start with the rug and the sofa, from a store you like with the help of their designer to get the floorplan right. Than the blinds/shades. Take samples of the upholstery, a picture of the rug, and samples of the shades to a paint store like Monarch on Conn Ave to pick the paint last (because there are thousands of paint colors so it’s much easier to get paint to go with the other things than visa versa).

Kudos to you, lady, for promoting yourself all over every single DC-area mommy forum ever.

PP here - I am a former client actually. They did a great job with several rooms in my house, which I decorated at different times. They also picked some paint colors for me.

I haven’t actually used them, but one of the founders is a friend of a friend. So I keep looking at their site and thinking that I should try. I think they work with a lot of the things people already have?

Most of the people emailed don’t want to do just a few rooms, or they want to do lots of custom stuff.

Anyone know of someone who might do smaller projects like this?
