Decorating

Don't Live In a Boring Home

January 5, 2017

When shopping for a new dining set, think ergonomics. Picture the table with every seat occupied in your dining room and consider how much space there is to walk around it. Your dining area must have enough room to accommodate the dining set when it is at its seating capacity without anyone pulling their seat in..

Relocate your China cabinet into your living room. You can accessorize the shelves with things like plants, vases, books or photo frames. You will be surprised at how many compliments you get when your guests enter the room and notice what you have done. It only takes minutes to do and will have a great presence in the room.

Use a few small potted plants in your kitchen and bathroom. Potted plants can add some much-needed color and decoration to a room. They will also make it feel fresher. Even fake potted plants can be better than not using them at all. Try putting a few in strategic places.

Create some elegance in a room using sconces for lighting. The dim light that comes from a sconce is fancy and romantic. You can also get them in a variety of shapes, colors, and designs so that they will fit in perfectly with the theme of your room.

Make sure you don't forget the windows and doors in your home when decorating. People tend to focus on paint, furniture and accessories, but you can make a big difference in the look and feel of a room just by adding some simple home accents around the doors and windows in your home.
