Interior Design Tips - The Details
Remove the plastic covering from your lampshade. You don't need it, and removing it will make your home appear
more "homey" and less like a furniture showroom.
more "homey" and less like a furniture showroom.
Remove the sofa arm pads
that have been there for the last five years. You're going to wind up
with a sofa that has fabric which has become faded and/or dirty over
time, and you'll just wind up with arms that don't match. Removing them
will keep you from having to constantly straighten them, and your home
will appear more orderly.
Replace plants that have seen their better days with fresh ones? Dead leaves or sparse branches give your home a less than desirable look.
Light all of your candles, at least once. Again,
we want our homes to look as if someone actually lives there and enjoys
it. To make your candles last longer, after you have lit them once,
pinch off half of the burned wick. You will thus get rid of the waxy
pool that builds up in your wider candles and this will make your
candles last twice as long.
Remove all of the dust covers from your hardbound books. Your bookcase will look nicer once you remove all of the loud colors usually found on dust covers.
Remove clutter as much as possible. Use Bombay boxes and other types of containers so that what you are displaying is both decorative and functional.
You can add quite a bit of storage capacity to your home by using trunks,
chests and decorative boxes as part of your decor.
