Various topics have existed on this but looking to redesign 2 kids rooms. We have some good pieces and also some nice art i would like to continue to use. I will also need some things as well and don’t want to spend a fortune as it is for kids rooms. I want to do it all online and not in person. I know there is some services out there- but want someone to lay out the entire room. Any recommendations? thanks!
