Does it really matter if your next-door neighbor doesn’t like the way you’ve arranged your kitchen? Well, no offense, but not really. Sure you might want a second opinion, and that’s great. But when you’re decorating, make sure you include all the right people in the decision making.

If you are feeling a little worried about what lies of head of you, that’s understandable. But don’t ignore it if the anxiety is strong. Decorating should be a fun, exciting adventure, not a painful event. If you’re feeling very tense about the whole thing, take a step back and try to determine why.

Are you unhappy with your roommate and therefore find it difficult to work on the living spaces you share? If you have such problems, put off major decorating for a while. Working on your home might seem like a good diversion to help you forget about an unhappy condition, but the issues that are really bothering you will have to be worked out sooner or later.

When the time is right, you’ll know, and you’ll do a much better job if the stress has been worked through.
