-Choose a theme for each room, and stick with it (my GH has a library and an indoor garden maze). Build on those themes when you are able to. It's real easy to go broke buying a lot of furniture, so ditch a theme because you are low on gralats; save up awhile so you can go on another shopping spree.
-Sometimes, new furniture releases can be worked into the theme.
-Basic furniture like boxes and chairs can be used as building blocks for creative structures (like boats as mentioned).
-Sometimes, basic furniture is just fine to provide a simple "Graal" look.
-Flower pots, plush toys, and other small things provide for good accent pieces.
-A few well-placed rugs look good. Rugs can also be used to hide railroad track.
-I like putting things such as statues, torches, or flower pots on either side of a door way.
-You dont have to put all the furniture on the floor. Its okay to put cosmetic furniture in the walls so there is more walking space.
-I personally dont use weather crystals because they are distracting.

This also works as a really good guide to decorating. The Graal look is often the best look. Best furniture shops are the two shops in swamp town, belle, and the mod town one. Not all of the furniture in mod town have 'Graal-like' furniture, but it does have some cool items. Red Barn and snow town are the places you go to when you're
really desperate. Unless youre just there for flowers or statues or some of the old furniture in red barn. Aside from that, most of the furniture there is hard to match.
