MAKE A ROOM LOOK BIGGER
Maybe you rent a small apartment in the city. Or maybe your forever home features smaller rooms. Instead of spending more money on a larger space or knocking down a wall, you can make a room feel larger with a mix of design and creativity. Maximize every inch of your space with these beginner and budget-friendly decorating tips.
HANG CURTAINS HIGH
Instead of mounting your curtain rods just above the top of your windows, move up about five to six inches higher. This will create length to the wall, giving off the impression that the ceiling is higher than it actually is. Be sure to use curtains that reach the floor to highlight this illusion.
BRING IN THE LIGHT
Darkness can be univiting and create the sense of a small space. In regards to your curtains, letting in a lot of natural light is a great way to make a room feel larger. Use sheer panels instead of opaque or light blocking curtains. Choosing warming LED light bulbs for lamps and overhead lighting create the look of natural and comfortable light without being too bright or too dark.
UTILIZE BUILT-IN STORAGE
Built-in bookshelves or cabinets allow for maximum storage space and minimal clutter. If your home doesn’t already have this, you can build it yourself. Or, utilize furniture with hidden storage, such as ottomans, benches and coffee tables to help clear up clutter and add more space.
PUT UP MIRRORS
Similar to windows, mirrors give the illusion of a larger space. Hanging a few, or even one, on your wall essentially doubles the space of the room in the reflection, adding dimension and depth. If your room has limited light, hang the mirror across from the window, projecting more natural light throughout the space from a new angle.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT RUG
Rugs provide not only comfort, but design and style, to a room. Size your rugs to each respective room to optimize the space. To create depth in a room, go for one large rug, leaving about six to 12 inches of space from the wall. For a room heavy in furniture, such as a bedroom or living room, utilizing smaller rugs to break up the space, creating separate sections and areas.
PAINT WITH LIGHT COLORS
The color of a room plays a large part in the illusion of size. When rooms are painted with darker colors, or even a patterned wallpaper, it can feel overwhelming and give off the feel of a smaller space. To maximize the size, painting with lighter colors, like white, grey, light blue, beige projects a spacious feel. To bring in some color, play with an accent wall, throw pillows and blankets and artwork without losing depth.

THE BEST INDOOR PLANTS FOR EVERY ROOM IN THE HOUSE
There’s no better way to infuse energy into your home than with a few houseplants. Of course, with so many options to choose from, picking the right plants for each space can be a little overwhelming. To help simplify your life, here are the perfect plants for every room in your home.
FOYER: PEACE LILIES
Because it’s said to represent good luck and prosperity, the peace lily is an ideal plant to decorate the entryway of your home and greet visitors with. Its glossy leaves and white flowers provide an elegant focal point and, perhaps best of all, peace lilies are touted for their ability to purify the air.
KITCHEN: ALOE VERA
An aloe vera plant can look great in any part of the home, but chances are you’ll benefit the most from having it in your kitchen. Should you burn your hand on a hot frying pan or get a small cut while dicing vegetables, you can break off a small piece of aloe vera and apply it directly to your skin for relief.
LIVING ROOM: FIDDLE LEAF FIG
The fiddle leaf fig is a favorite among plant enthusiasts, and a large living room is the perfect place to position this ornamental tree. Just make sure that this finicky houseplant receives the proper amount of sunlight and water.
HOME OFFICE: SUCCULENTS
Looking for a low-maintenance plant for your workspace? A few succulents are an excellent choice because they can easily fit on your desk and usually only need to be watered every week or two. Plus, when you’re feeling stressed out, they can be soothing to look at and help you calm down.
BEDROOM: LAVENDER
Research has shown that the smell of lavender has calming effects, which is why it’s widely used as a natural sleep aid. If you want a plant that will help you to wake up feeling refreshed each morning, you can’t go wrong with lavender.
