We have all either been there or watched the scene unfold on television or film. You know, the scene when the family pile in the car ready for what seems to be a journey of some length. When the car left the road someone turns Dad (usually driving) and inquired about directions to their destination. With a voice just a little more confidence than needed a father figure replies that they do not need to worry because he knows exactly how to get where they are going. Unfortunately we all know that this scene usually ends with a family stranded in some locations are dark and foreboding with Dad still believes he knows where he's going.

Modern GPS technology has all but eliminated this archetype scenes from movies or television situation at this time but the bigger problem remains. In many situations a very modern, GPS though, making a mess of things can still happen when adequate planning forgotten or ignored.

As is the case with projects DIY home decorating, the subject of my current thoughts. A quick visit to some of the industry growing and most popular online chat room suggestions will appear a surprising number of the questions that have to do with the spacial layout, the arrangement of furniture, room organization and scale, proportion and size questions. One post begging just said (after offering photos of the living room is very small and the sofa too big) "please, can anyone help me organize my living room so that new sofa will fit". Unfortunately, in this case, even a shoe-horn will not help.

So what, modern homeowners themselves empowered to do?

In a word I would say 'plan', which in this case means making space scale plan concerned and, in the same way, to measure any and all pieces of furniture that is you intend to put in the room. If your situation requires the addition of new furniture to apply the same room; The first measure, the second purchase. Only after understanding, on paper, the consequences of the over-sized sofa you can proceed with confidence knowing that it would be a good fit and look attractive in a balanced and enjoyable.

Many will protest that type of floor-plan is for professionals and that humans simply can not hope to aspire to the tasks of the technically challenging. To this I say Phooey.

Here are three options (the first two are free) to put in your hands the floor plan you need to start your decorating project on solid ground:

1. Paper Graph and Straight Edge. This ancient method still works, if you're in a pinch. graph paper marked by the increase quarter-inch. Take a tape measure and walk the length and width of your room. Calculating box on graph paper taped to coincide with the measurement of your measuring tape. A simple rectangle or square to be adequate but will provide documentation of the space you have. small squares and rectangles to represent pieces of furniture that exist and in no time you'll have an accurate representation of your room. This learning. Commit this to memory and not make a purchase without consulting a plan or your plan.
