How To Stylishly Decorate Your Home By Making The Most Of Your Furniture With Accessories

Amazing as it may seam, it’s reallly possible to turn a simple and plain-looking piece of furniture into a design masterpiece by accessorizing it properly. To be completely honest, knowing how to accessorize furniture may help you to seriously cut down furnishing expenses – there’s no need to buy designer units as long as you know the main principles of making the most for your furniture with accessories. Here is a brief room to room overview on simple and affordable decoration tips to make your home look attractive and inviting:

Hallway

Hallway console table  usually serves as temporary placement for keys, gloves and other useful trinkets, but apart from that, it deserves to be decorated with taste. Tall candlesticks, statuettes, clocks and framed photos are great for this purpose. Flower arrangements are also excellent for specking up a dull hallway; it is perfectly okay to go with faux flowers as well, as long as they look tasteful and natural. A set of stylish looking storage boxes may also become a perfect addition to any hallway.

Living  room

Typically, the whole design picture of a living room is centered around a coffee table, which is often its main focal point. When it comes to decorating a coffee table, there’s virtually no end to design ideas, from traditional vases or statuettes to funky DIY design compositions. Of course, a lot will depend on your main interior theme, but going with books and live plants will make your living room look welcoming regardless of its main decoration scheme.

Dining room

Making the most of your furniture with accessories will be impossible if you overlook the importance of mirrors. A mirror in a dining room will make it look more spacious; in fact, old-fashioned traditional dining room sets often include mirrors. One more timeless idea on decorating dining room cabinets and sideboards  is to brighten them up with fruit vases and candlesticks.

Bedroom

A bed is a bedroom’s main furniture unit, so choosing a great looking bed set is vital, if you want it to look elegant. Buy a couple of stylish throws and blankets to cover your bed at daytime and make sure you absolutely love their colour and decoration pattern – after all, it’s up to you and only you to decide what looks best in your bedroom. Don’t disregard pillows, get lots of them – this will create a relaxed and playful mood in your bedroom. If you opt for wall art, go for neutral and balanced colours. And, if you are wondering how to stylishly decorate bedside cabinets, consider getting beautiful cabinet lamps  – these items are not only great looking, but also functional.

As mentioned above, the approach to making the most of your bedroom with accessories will vary depending on your dominant style theme, but, in general, always stick to these basic principles:

– Sort your stuff out and get rid of things you don’t need before you start decorating;
– Avoid placing more then three décor elements per furniture unit;
– Get rid of clutter regularly, otherwise your balanced design picture will end up destroyed by mess.

All in all, decorating is the most fun part of furnishing as it lets you get creative and play with different design ideas.
