Can you give me a good website for interior decorating of a new home. We are really into Asian themes, and bold colors.

Why is it the rest of the year is so easy to decorate your home seasonally - but every year after Christmas/New Year I'm left scratching my head wondering "how do I decoarte, now?" It's too early for Spring, I don't want to leave my Christmas stuff up....any ideas?
I like to keep up the "winter" decorations... snowmen, mostly, until Valentine's Day, then I decorate for that. A few hearts here and there. After Valentine's Day I'll do a little St. Patrick's day, then it's spring! Yay!
My boyfriend and I just purchased a new townhouse and are looking for neat but inexpensive ideas to decorate. Anybody know where we can find some do-it-yourself ideas that will look good but not cheap-looking?
For each room, pick something that the rest of the room will revolve around.
For instance, if you have a green couch, then pick everything else in that room to go with the couch - not necessarily matching it, but going with it. That way the room will look more pulled together and professionally finished.
Don't mistake clutter and a lot of junk laying around for a classy look. Make your rooms warm and inviting, but not early junk yard.

Does it look warm and inviting? Or cold and museum-like?

its cool, but needs more color on the walls
Have just bought a new home. We are not going to do much decor yet just paint the walls and change the carpets downstairs only as we will be doing it up properly in the next couple of years. We have chosen Dulux Perfectly Taupe for the walls in the living room but I am really unsure as to what shade of carpet will go and what colour settees. Any advice will be gratefully received.
Find a neutral carpet because paint color is way cheaper to change in the future than carpet is. My suggestions are light brown, cream, green, gray, blueish gray.
We just painted our living room and dining room and are getting new carpet. Our paint colors are pinkish-salmon on one wall, medium-dark gray on two walls, purplish-taupe on 3 walls. We chose a light-medium grayish-brown medium-long Frieze carpet. Sort've like a shag but a little shorter and thicker. The carpet hasn't arrived yet, but I think it will look nice. The carpet will go in the living room, the dining room has birch hardwood floors.

Fall 'green' decorating tips from an expert
Lifestyle guru Susie Coelho believes that in this depressed economy, now is the time to expand rather than contract your lives. Just do it with an eye toward the green of nature rather than of money.
"It's natural that during these tough times," Coelho says. "People want to conserve, economize, cut back, cut down and reduce their nut. I am doing the same.
"At the same time however, I encourage people to get more creative and resourceful and expand their lifestyles. It just has to be done in a different fashion."
Coelho, who hosted "Surprise Gardener" and "Outer Spaces" for HGTV, is also a best-selling author on decorating. She designs a line of indoor and outdoor décor for the Grandin Road catalog.
Here are some of Coelho's tips to help you get the most out of your creative spirit in the coming season.
Entertaining eco chic
The hot trend this holiday, as well as a great way to stay on budget, is to mix organic elements that can be found in nature into your traditional holiday décor. Whether you are setting the table for a sit-down dinner or creating a beautiful buffet table or just styling your entry or living room, you can take a nature walk and collect branches, pine cones and leaves and then mix them in with other natural textures such as burlap, twine, raffia and natural linen.

If you’re keen on renovating or redecorating your home, you’ll need some fantastic home decorating ideas. These aren’t all that hard to obtain and if you’re an artistic person with a flair for what looks good, then you shouldn’t have any problem getting great home decorating ideas for yourself. However, most people are probably more like me and don’t have a clue where to start and what to change in order to make their homes a brighter place to live.
The first time I started a home decorating project, I was completely clueless and didn’t know what to do first. Should I strip the wallpaper first or take out the carpet? Should I fit those new double-glazed windows or should I buy a sanding machine to clean off all those wooden bits around the room. The list, as you may have guessed, is endless and I could go on forever but in the interests of your valuable time, I’ll leave the rest up to your imagination.
Home decorating ideas are all well and good, but if you’re looking to do major renovation work, then you should probably call in professional renovators – people who can handle the job properly for you. If you’re doing this, then make sure that the renovators you go with are willing to stick to the home decorating ideas that you give them, and won’t go off on a tangent of their own.
