Decorating a home can transform a new build or period property into a space that will be enjoyed for years. Common budget missteps include selecting materials that mark easily and over-investing in complex smart-home systems that add cost but little long-term value. Without a clear plan and priorities, renovation and decorating projects can quickly become costly. Setting a realistic budget, prioritizing durable, low-maintenance finishes, researching technology needs and long-term costs, and avoiding impulse purchases help control spending and ensure the finished space balances appearance, function and longevity.
