You cannot do too much planning up front. Chances are, you already have many of the accessories that can be used in a room. See my previous post on Decorating with Handcrafts and Folk Art. Erring on the side of too little is far better than erring on the side of too much. If you have a transitional, contemporary or especially a modern look, limit your accessory items. Always keep the big picture in mind. – Alexander Interiors, Northern Virginia
