Free template
The interior design budget template that adds itself up
Per-room budgets, live totals, item status, and over-budget warnings — free, in Excel or Google Sheets. Built by people who spend all day thinking about design budgets.
What’s inside
Per-room budget sheets
Living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom — plus a template tab to duplicate for every other space. Each room carries its own budget, committed total, and remaining balance.
Totals that calculate themselves
Quantity × price + shipping rolls up per item, per room, and across the whole project. No formulas to write.
Item status tracking
A dropdown per item — proposed, client approved, ordered, delivered — so the sheet answers “where's my dining table?” for as long as a sheet can.
Over-budget warnings
Remaining balances turn amber inside the last 10% and red when a room goes over — the same early-warning idea Mortar's live budgets are built on.
Get the template
Free, no strings. Works in Excel, Google Sheets, and Numbers.
An honest note
Every budget spreadsheet has an expiry date
This is the best version of the spreadsheet we know how to build — and it will still break the way every FF&E spreadsheet breaks: copies drift, prices go stale, approvals live in email, and your client can’t see any of it. When your project count makes that real, that’s the exact job Mortar was built for — the same budget, live, with selections, client approvals, and order tracking attached. See how the live version works.
