I like to go to model homes and look at the way they are decorated. It gives me tons of ideas. I'll bring my camera along too to take pictures and try to duplicate the decor.

I think going to homes that are for sale especailly the large expensive fancy houses hehe and taking a look around would definitely give some great ideas. You wouldn't have to duplicate it exactly but just get the basic idea. Of course I don't have time to go looking at houses that are for sale for decorating ideas but it would be a fun thing to do. Plus looking at how other people live is interesting to me. I would like to see how different colors and textures go together in different places of the home.

I love that idea!! I never thought about that before. You can get some great tips from going to those model homes...they are so impeccably decorated.

I went last weekend with a friend of mine who was looking into buying a new home. I got so many great ideas just by walking through the model homes I was in heaven!!

I love going to model homes too. We finally bought a home in a development that still had model homes open and thought we'd be able to see the model of our house to gets ideas, but the model of ours wasn't open anymore. I think the house we live in now is a model at another development. I love the way I've put it together, but I may go look to see what the builders did with it.
