The living room should take top priority when it comes to decorating your home. Because it’s a space dedicated to relaxation and comfort, you’ll want to reflect your personality and lifestyle as soon as possible.
Adopt the following design tips as you decorate your living room:
Drapery, Blinds & Shades
Adorn the windows in your home with stylish window blinds that not only provide privacy but a sophisticated appearance. Wood blinds naturally create a warm and rustic ambience for a farmhouse interior-design theme, whereas waterfall woven shades evoke a simple vintage look. Make your windows the focal point of your living room by hanging eye-catching drapery. Several home decorating stores offer a wide range of drapery styles in a variety of colors and patterns.
Light Fixtures
Enhance the ambience of your living room with light fixtures and decorative lamps. For primary lighting, install a ceiling fan with light kits, chandeliers with pendants or a standalone ceiling light fixture. Bronze or polished pewter chandeliers create an elegant look that doesn’t dominate the space. Flush mount ceiling light designs include brushed nickel, copper bronze, chrome and painted champagne style options. Add more lighting to your living room with end table lamps of a floor corner lamp. Keep furniture and curtains neutrals and be bold with an eye-catching eclectic lamp shade. Several fashion and home stores offer a collection of beautiful lamp shades for any homeowner who wants to liven space up with whimsical color or contemporary edge.
Comfortable Furniture
Create comfort in your living room with stylish and superior-quality furniture that’ll look and feel great. There are excellent home stores for homeowners who have a tighter budget but don’t want to sacrifice style. They range from living room furniture collections fabric, leather and modular sofas as well as chaise lounges, footstools and armchairs for just a fraction of the price.
