7 Tips to Give Your Room a Makeover
5. Pay attention to curtains
It is incredible how a few curtains and pillow-covers can change the appearance of the room. You can use a few small pillows as well for decoration with fresh looking, good smelling, covers in bright colors. Floral patterns and artistic designs can be picked to liven up the mood or to suit the shades around the room. Curtains especially in case of French doors could be large and bright and add a lot to the look of the room. Picking the right ones can create a balance between the right amount of lighting entering the room and the right sense of coziness. If the budget is not an issue, you can even go for contemporary shutters and blinds, which come in aesthetic designs, making use of bamboo in some cases.
6. Add storage space
If you want to give your room a makeover, first clear off the clutter. You need to add storage space to make sure you have space to stash away the stuff. Organizing your things is important for the room to look good to your eyes. Drawers in bedside tables, chests with many drawers or a corner armoire can give you that closet space to organize your clothes, shoes and other accessories. It is not a bad idea to go for a bed with storage space. This will make sure you have space to store your bed sheets, covers, quilts and other things you don’t need regularly.
7. A touch of modern
A nice mirror, a nice headboard, some bright vases, a good graphic piece and if possible, a useful desk can add a lot of beauty to the room. While you don’t want your room to look empty, you have to draw a line as to how much space you should leave out. A nice carpet can add to the cozy feel of the room. A console can give you some extra space. Similarly, out of the ordinary lamps and a green plant can also enhance the look of the room. Plants make the room look fresher and cleaner. Sepia photos framed to the walls can complete the look, making the room look yours truly in every sense.
