Answer
websites; can't help you there. However . . .
We did a MAJOR remodeling on our home. What was a super help was my idea of drafting out the entire main level and entire lower level on graph paper. I took exact measurements of each room and used one graph square as one foot, added each room onto the graph paper until one entire level on home was marked. Mark onto your paper the windows (& their size), vents, doors/doorways and even add outlets. After I finished each level on each sheet, I used a thin black marker to make the rooms permanent onto the paper. Now, these sheets can be used to determine square footage for the amount of paint needed for each room, how much square footage needed for carpet, ceramic tiles, wood flooring and even curtain sizes. (later I used same sheets to 'place' furniture before moving it and would know if pieces fit or would be blocking a vent or hiding too many outlets, etc...)
I carried my sheets in my purse for many months while making various decisions and never had to keep remeasuring). Couple years later I did a graph paper for my yard & had measurements handy again for fencing, posts, size gate needed and even for trees, shrubs, other plantings, fountain and statues.
Find a 'theme' for each room. Me - - I decorated living room in big cats such as tigers, cheetahs, leopards, lions, etc... Did dining room with seashells, including tables center piece. Did bedroom with Steve's semi and train stuff. Did bathroom as just basic plain items (neutral so he doesn't have to see 'girl' stuff like pink or flowers). Did western in my computer room. etc.... Go with what items you collect or really like and what room are you going to put these items in.
Look at the items going into that one room. What are the main colors of these items? Also, what is the color you plan to use on the floor or floor covering. This will help determine your wall colors. Use brighter but matching colors for accents within the room.
I picked a mint green wall paint for my living room and adjourning dining room with a small flowery and scalloped wallpaper border. In the kitchen, I picked white 4' X 8' panels for walls. The ones I picked can be washed and stand up to abuse. These were installed onto the wall prior to cabinets or baseboards. In the kitchen, I also put up a wallpaper border that had a plum, maroon & green tapestry. Since I had some antique bowls, jars, etc... and put these items on top of the wall cabinets with fake green vines drapping over some of these items.
You will find what works for you and what I have done to each room may not be something you would like, but hopefully, it may give you some ideas.
We did other things inside and out that saved us money such as 'making' our own baseboards, etc...
