On working with a tight budget and existing furniture, we are currently working with a client who is in the exact same predicament. We switched out her living, family, and dining rooms using only what she had in her home. She was thrilled with the outcome and we are now working with her on choosing paint colors. For all of these services, we charge our usual hourly rates. We’d be happy to talk to anyone interested in hearing more. http://www.biquintiledesigns.com (soon to be Sanctuary on Church, a home accessories and interior design boutique in Vienna, VA)

I second the Pro Source Dulles recommendation. I work with Lauren over there. They are pretty flexible about allowing non-designers to come in and shop around (alone) as long as a designer gives them a referral.

Stark Carpet and Foundation, both down at the design center, are good options as well for designers.

I like Prosource for custom rugs… It’s trade-only but since she’s a designer she should be able to head on over. (I go to the Dulles Prosource)

Even though the shabby chic look is officially “over”, slipcovers still serve a great purpose. It’s quick effective way to work with what until you can buy a new piece, or protect what you have from kids, pets etc. They have to be custom fit to do the job right. I have a list of sources of people who do it quite well here in DC for anyone who wants it –contact@marmaladeinteriors.com
