Do you have a room in your home that needs to be freshened up?
Just in time for summer home improvement, here are some simple tips to help do-it-yourself enthusiasts liven up any space.
*Pick the appropriate lighting for your paint color. The trick is to create a harmonious balance between color and light. Make up of the lack of light by adding in some table lamps, wall sconces, a chandelier or a mirror and watch how it makes the room look so much bigger.
*Don't forget about layering texture and pattern. It gives a room personality and stops the room from looking too flat. Silk curtains, a patterned pillow, or even a nice linen wallpaper are all things that can give the room dimension and make the room more interesting.
*Look for ways to mix and match furniture. Just because the furniture you like is available as a set doesn't mean you have to purchase it that way. Mix it up a bit. Consider going with a white lacquer bookcase and a wood coffee table in your living room or a leather sofa paired with a beautiful upholstered armchair.
I hope this gives you some ideas. These simple tips are offered by Stephanie Andre and Glidden.
