HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO FURNISH YOUR HOME FULL COST BREAKDOWN ROOM BY ROOM (7)

Have you ever thought about how much it actually costs to decorate a room with an interior designer?

Whether you are bored of your furniture or want to create a whole new look in your space, the question that is bound to come up is: How much is this going to cost me?

Before you read further, we want to share a some diclaimers:

  1. The average price for the furniture items we share in the post is intentionally at the higher end of furniture costs. We created two budgets for the living room, dining, room, and bedroom. 
  2. Stone House Collective represents exclusive, high-quality designer furniture. You won’t find our product or our level of design services. The costs are based on our clients and our experience in interior design and product manufacturing.
  3. We don’t share design costs, contractors, or renovation costs.

If you are wanting to work with an interior designer or are curious to see what the costs of furniture are in this day and age, this blog post will give you a good idea of what to expect to spend on furniture. 

Why Purchase Furniture Through an Interior Designer? 

1. One of a Kind Style

Designers have access to access to special vendors. If you are looking a signature style, your interior designer more than likely sources items that are not readily available to the masses. 

2. High-Quality and Long-Lasting Items

When you purchase furniture through an interior designer, you get access to higher quality items for a similar price point. Higher quality furniture often means that your pieces will last a long time.

3. Saves You Time and Energy

At Stone House Collective, we provide a full-service experience where you can expect us to plan, order, track, handle shipping and receiving, hold the items and inspect them for quality. We will return any damaged items and reorder them. Plus, we will coordinate delivery and moving on installation day!

Ordering all of your furnishings through a designer allows you to enjoy the design process, and minimize the stress and work it would take figuring it all out on your own.

4. Well Thought Out

When you work with an interior designer, you will have a solid design plan that is perfect for your home and your family. 

So, let’s get into the nitty-gritty details on cost!
