So, grab your favorite blanket, refill your cup, and cozy up in your favorite chair to dig into these decorating tips you won’t want to miss.
Fine-Tune the Floor Plan
Has your sofa been in the same spot since you moved into your home 2, 5, or 10+ years ago? There’s a good chance that it’s well past time to switch up your furniture layout. If things are just feeling blah, and you’re ready for a refresh, swapping out furniture pieces between rooms, trying new arrangements, and adding in a few other tweaks could be the answer to all of your interior decorating dilemmas. Start with a fresh take on the layout of a room. Then, if you’re liking the general look, feel, and flow of the space, move on to step two. You’ll be glad you did for that finished, refined, and totally elevated look.
Turn Up the Texture
Now, you can achieve a more finished look by adding in additional textures. Gone are the days of the fully matching furniture sets from your local furniture store. Now, to score a more elevated space, the key is to mix and match complementing textures, patterns, and fabrics. This can take the form of differing, yet coordinating fabrics between a sofa and a loveseat. Then, throwing in another texture all together like leather on an ottoman, or an accent chair can take your interior decorating scheme to a whole new level of refinement and style.
Layers are Lovely
Layers are simply lovely when it comes to interior decorating in Omaha. And, let’s be honest, it’s one of the crucial elements to secure a sophisticated home design. Patterns and textures in pillows and throws are an awesome way to incorporate additional layers that can coordinate with your existing furniture pieces, or add in some playful fun and intrigue by adding in some contrasting pieces, too. Then, we fully recommend finishing off the look with a lovely textured pattern as window coverings in long, billowy, light-filtering curtains, or in a textured roman shade.
See Things in a New Light
Literally, you’re able to see your home in a new light with some updates to your existing light fixtures. We love updating a home by swapping out light fixtures for something large and dramatic. Layering in reading lamps, floor lamps, and sconce lighting throughout. The use of lighting transcends the home from the ordinary, to the extraordinary. Lighting provides many more layers, dimension, and depth to elevate your interior decorating with ease, style, and elegance.
