When you faced with the task of decorating, or redecorating, a room on a tight budget, you have to choose each item with extra consideration and care. Obviously you will want to make the most impact with the least amount of expenditure. In instances where your basic furnishings are serviceable, you can do this by spending that hard-earned cash on affordable accessories to punch up the look of your room. Throw rugs, painted tables, fancy lamps, etc. all add dimension, drama and draw the viewer’s focus to what’s new and fun in the room. Of all my favorite accessories that can add sparkle and splash to a budget décor, mirrors rank at the top of the list.
A good lamp looks even better when you can see it and the knick-knacks it spotlights all reflected back in a colorfully framed looking glass. The trick of making rooms appear larger or extending the size of a small collection of vases to look like twice as many is already known and practiced by designers everywhere. So, why shouldn’t you do the same? A few well-chosen, carefully orchestrated reflections can make small rooms seem to have more depth. Placing a line of colorful collectables in front of a long rectangular mirror magically gives them the appearance of being doubled.
Other accessories that can add dimension and style on a budget include table lamps, with or without shades, contrasting throw pillows and even floor pillows. You can add both seating and comfort with an ottoman, or divide a larger space into two rooms with a sturdy see-through bookcase. There are too many possibilities to list. So, shop smart and add style with mirrors and other great room accessories. They’ll provide you with plenty of color, depth and style without breaking your decorating bank.
