Simple Yet Effective Ways to Decorate Your Home

Want to know how to create an atmosphere and a warm feeling in your home? Ever felt that your home lacked something that will capture the emotions of your guests? Then it may be time to add romance to your home. These tips will transform your home from a room into a place where you and your guests both love being in.

Step 1: Remove all clutter and mess

This simple step is often overlooked but it's very important. If there are any mess such as piles of papers or anything else lying around that does not entice your visitors to stay, it's time to put them away. Best to start with a clean slate than to try to add decor to a room that needs space clearing.

Step 2: Add a piece of wall art

Art and beautiful objects draw the eye and fires the imagination and makes a house a home. You can use wall hangings, paintings or photos to add a sense of beauty to a room. It not only makes your guests relax and stay, it will also transform your experience of the home as well.

Step 3: Add live foliage

Indoor plants including potted lavender, rosemary or jasmine because of the fact that they're natural, adds a touch that will relax and beautify the entire room. Choose a plant that you like the look of, and a nice pot to place it in. It will invigorate and enliven the room.

Step 4: Add color in rooms

If you have a room that you spend a lot of tie in such as your lounge room, bedroom or study, and ensure that they contain colors that you like. Too much beige, white or black without variation can look dull, so add an object, shawl, curtain or even just cushions can add color where it is needed.

Step 5: Add a photo

A photo that you have taken yourself of family or nature can add much needed color and interest to your room. It creates a feeling of family and warmth and smiling faces here can add positive emotion to a room that appeared a little cool before.

Step 6: Add light

When you've added your touches and there's a need for light, such as a room with not just one small window or if the season is cold and dark, then a lamp can help add warmth to the area. Overhead lights are fine, but lamps with lampshades create a softer light.

Step 7: Add an item from your hobby

This adds a lot of interest to your room. If you enjoy bird watching, then add a photo or illustration of a bird. If you enjoy painting, then add one of your own. Whatever it is, it makes your space even more personal and at the same time, interesting to others, as this will spark conversation.

So there you go. Use these steps and you will soon see that any room or home can be transformed into a place where you love being in.
