I moved into my new house a few months ago and I've hardly decorated it at all. As a matter of fact when I look around, except for the larger size, it still feels "apartment-y" to me. Let me just say I am a horrible interior designer and would really love some input on someone in Austin I can hire to just get some ideas.

I do not have the budget to pay $10k for designing my own home. I really just want some guidance and much of the work and shopping I can do on my own. I watch a lot of design shows and am wowed at home some of these designers can completely overhaul a room for under $3k because they know where to shop and what to buy. That's kind of what I'm looking for.

Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thx!

I always recommend Janine Nicholson with Metamorphosis. www.RoomsULove.com. She does all projects - large and small and knows how to stretch a dollar. Check out her site. She also posts a regular blog of good deals, sales, etc... She did a great job on a friend's dining room - with only a $600 budget.
