A specialist should verify the structural resistance of the building and tell you which walls can be demolished and which cannot. In order to make sure that the house is watertight you have to have someone inspect the roof and the windows. Then check the floors to see if they need reconditioning or buy new ones if you can afford it.
The next steps you need to take are preparing your walls and coloring them. The colors may be chosen according to a unitary style you plan on using in the entire house or may be different for each and every room. Nevertheless, you should know in advance what types of curtains, carpets and furniture you will use in each room. The great range of products available should make it easier for you to take the most appropriate choice. It does not matter whether you are a fan of warm tones of beige or of strong colors like green red, the color you choose should fit the room you use it in and it shouldn't tire your eyes.
The painting process should be the most enjoyable part of the decoration. However, the fact that most paint stinks, makes many people reluctant to start painting. Even weeks after the job is done, an unpleasant odor still remains in the room.

Nothing stops you now from bringing furniture, carpets and curtains in a newly painted room.
