It’s unnecessary to tip holiday decorators, and most professionals won’t expect it, but it’s a nice gesture to show your appreciation for their work. If the expert goes above and beyond to keep your delicate decorations safe, or they’re hanging your exterior lights and putting out lawn decorations in freezing temperatures or inclement weather, a tip between 10% and 20% of your total will be appreciated. Large jobs that include interior and exterior work are also good opportunities to tip, especially if your expert is performing a rush job close to the holidays.

With a little ingenuity, an old fireplace insert can be transformed into a decorative centerpiece that infuses new life into any room. Consider placing LED lights or candles inside to create a captivating display that simulates the warm glow of a fire. Another option is to repurpose the insert as a charming bookshelf by adding rustic shelves within the firebox. For plant lovers, converting the fireplace insert into an indoor garden is a perfect way to bring nature indoors. You can also transform it into a stylish wine rack.

You may think that adding crown molding will shrink a room, but in fact, it has the opposite effect. The reason crown molding makes a room bigger is that it draws the eyes upward to the ceiling, which gives the impression of a taller wall. Just be careful that you don't crowd the room— if you have a lot of artwork or intricate wallpaper, crown molding may not be a good idea.

The typical cost of an interior designer is around $8,000, but you might spend as low as $200 or as much as $65,000, depending on the size of your home, the services you want, and the quality of the decor. Your price for interior decoration will always increase with home size, as more square footage requires more materials and labor. Your price will also be higher if you want your decorator to choose and purchase materials in addition to arranging them in your home. Higher quality furniture and decor will also drive up your cost.
