Interior Decorating Tips

Not all home decorating ideas require a heavy
investment of time and money. If you're looking for a few affordable
home interior decorating ideas to freshen up a room over a weekend,
try these ten:
1.Rearrange The Furniture- Pull your furniture away from the walls.
Try positioning it at intriguing angles. For example, a sofa
arranged diagonally across a narrow living room will make the room
look wider.
2.Paint A Wall- Paint one wall your favorite color and make it the
focal point. Hang interesting art on that wall and move a nice piece
of furniture there. (Note: Make sure that the color is one that is
shared with several other objects and fabrics in the room.)
3.Bring In Plants- Greenery always adds a breath of fresh air to a
room. If you don't have a green thumb, try silk plants and trees.
The quality has gotten so good that its hard to distinguish them
from the real thing.
4.Lay An Area Rug- An area rug is a wonderful way of defining a
conversation area. Try one that complements the room. Lay it at an
angle beneath your coffee table.
5.Hang Pictures or Mirror- Hang pictures that reflect your
personality. Try frames that are more ornate. When hanging a mirror,
try and position it so that it reflects and nice view or an
interesting architectural element.
6.Group Figurines- Pull out your favorite collectibles. Show off
your personality. Find a display area and group related objects
together, in sets of three or five. Try and vary the shapes.
7.Add Decorative Pillows- The good news about decorative pillows is
that they are an easy way to add textures and patterns to a room.
Still better, they can be changed to jazz up a sofa or chair before
your room is ready for a major makeover.
8.Replace Lamps- Lamps are probably the one thing in your home that
will give others a clue that your room is outdated. Seek out new and
fresh lamps that make a statement.
9.Add A Throw Or Afghan- Similar to decorative pillows, throws and
afghans add texture to your furniture. They come in all kinds of
natural and man made fabrics. Find a pattern and style that you
like.
10.Eliminate Clutter- Clutter has a way of eliminating the desired
mood and effect of any room. Find storage spaces for papers, toys,
and other items that take from the personality of a room.
If you have a decorative mirror or lamps in mind, I recommend that
you check out Bellacor. They have a wide and interesting selection
of both.
For area rugs, you'll find a mind boggling collection of all types,
colors, sizes, and patterns at ifloor. Check out Bellacor's quality
rugs as well.
For figurines and vases, you're certain to find something you like
at Go Collect. And for quality prints and posters, browse through
All Posters. They'll even frame your choice.
