Mixing vintage and modern will add an interesting twist to a home. It lends richness and detail to an otherwise simply designed room. This gilded mirror makes the space look bigger, too, don’t you think?
Decorate tastefully. Turn your countertops and table clutter into gorgeous vignettes with a decorative tray. And if you need more table space for when guests come over, just put the tray aside! It’s an effortless combination of form and function.
Plush cushions, with comfortable linen or suede covers, will elevate the look of any sofa. Consider prints to give a bit more personality and style.
A pop of metallic accents, whether copper, brass or gold, will add a touch of sophistication to your space. Accent pieces such as pendant lamps, centrepieces, and side tables will help!
A hint of marble beings elegance and timelessness to your home. No budget for large slabs? Marble-look clocks, trivets and bowls can make a difference, too.
Roll out a chic area rug under tables, sofas, and beds to add dimension to a space. Try mix and matching upholstery, too; the trick is to vary the scale of each pattern so it will not look cluttered.
An accent wall in rich hues can be used as a backdrop to make other elements in the room stand out. You can pair it with lighter-hued furniture.
