Start with a drawing, painting, graphic, etc. of the audience view of the set.
Draw a careful plan (top view) of the set, showing walls, locations of platforms, other set pieces, etc.
If you are doing flats, on the plan carefully mark off the width of the flats on a copy of the plan.
On a drawing, layout all the flats side by side from stage right to left (from audience left to right) and draw in all the details such as doorways, bookshelfs, clocks, pictures, hanging things
On a copy of the flats drawing, color in for effect all of the details such as wood trim, wainscotting, wall paper, paint, etc. Make a key showing how each color is to be actually painted (spatter tones, background, shading in corners, etc.)
On a copy of the plans, mark each set piece to identify it (name or A, B, C.
Draw a set of plans for each item showing views and construction details and key to the color plot.

Check out Bob Ross at:

His techniques are very easy replicate and I am sure you can find episodes of his T.V. shows on PBS or get videos on-line.
He demonstrates easy techniques step by step. The final result looks nice too.
