I would check Pintrest, they have alot of great decor ideas. Or if you have a style, shabby chic, farmhouse, what ever just google it and you will find more ideas. What a great time you are in for. And congratulations on the new house.
Go the Houzz web site and you will get all kinds of ideas.
Wayfair.com was my best friend when I moved. They ship right to your door - for free.
Congratulations on your move and new home! Google and Pinterest, and of course, Hometalk, are your best friends. Save, pin, bookmark, anything that speaks to you, then you can edit out later. You may not have time to DIY everything, Home Goods is one of my favorite places for all kinds of household items. Down south your stores are T J Maxx / Home Goods. Be prepared for a bit of culture shock and give yourself some time to settle in. 🤗
Do you want to start from scratch or refresh older stuf or makeover acquired things...........
I would search Pinterest and Houzz for ideas to start narrow down options you can make albums there to hold a wealth of information for you to reference when its time start finding your products and vendors once your building and revovation begins.
Thank you.
