How to create brighter and larger spaces at home?
Decorating your home is a beautiful process, but it can quickly become overwhelming and daunting if you're not sure where to start. In this guide, I'll provide you with five ideas that will help you create beautiful, yet functional spaces in your home today. I hope you find them helpful!
1) Declutter:
An easy and effective way to elevate your spaces is by decluttering and displaying only the things that you truly love and use. You don't need to be a minimalist, but just be intentional with what you choose to keep in your spaces.
2) Get items you love:
Decorate your spaces with items that you love, instead of blindly following trends. Your living spaces should be a reflection of who you are, and a great way to achieve that is by adding things that hold meaning to you, regardless of the style. I love this quote by Albert Hadley “A room should feel collected, not decorated.”
3) Put effort into your entryway:
The entryway is the first space you and your guests see when entering your home. You can enhance the beauty of the entryway while also making it functional by adding a console table, mirror, storage baskets, and art.
4) Mix and Match furniture:
Adding furniture pieces that don't match can add visual interest and elevate your living spaces. It's best to avoid completely matching furniture sets. However, if you have a set that you love and want to keep, consider adding complementary elements to the space to break up any monotony.
5) Mix different textures:
An easy way to create a dynamic space is by incorporating different textures, such as throw blankets, accent pillows, rugs, and ceramic vases.
