When you get the budget, if all is OK, tell him OK, this is what we've agreed to. Anything that costs more--other than something I approve for additional items--will be considered a gift, for which I thank you in advance.

Make sure you everything you're buying in person. Don't take his word for it that "it's from the same manufacturer, you'll love it."

Yes, I plan on that. He did an unbelievable job at my friends place, but I am pretty lukewarm on one of the window treatments he selected.

I will be interested to see how the budget goes. When we chatted and I told him the amount, his response was "Your biggest cost will be paint, then window treatments, then me, then accessories/furnishings".
