I love interior design, but I acquire different pieces over time so it's not a big blow to my bank account. J, sample sales are a great source for high quality linens. Mood fabrics has great upholstery fabric, if you want to redo a chair on your own. You can also pick up fabric to make your own curtains.

How much is available for duvet covers, pretty curtains and chair upholstering? Answer, none. I did find the decorator ratio impressive though. If you paid for this properly, it would have been $8,500 instead of $1,500. Dayum. I think I'm in the wrong business! (also, the funny thing is that they were still $100 over budget if you add the tax! And they got free stuff. Actually another $150.)
