What about hanging a mirror to reflect the windows? What about framed pictures of flowers? Any pretty decorative item or piece of furniture of your choice would help brighten your space. Even a glass bowl full of fake fruit can be very pretty. In one of my rooms I have a glass hanging bowl that is filled with fake lemons. That lifts my heart every time I look at it. As would a pretty bowl of fake apples! Actually I find that even a very pretty book cover gives me a lift.
Thank you everyone for all the great ideas!! I'm excited to add these bright tips so I can enjoy my home.
As to the cactus suggestion, there are brightly colored ones. I have seen them in Home Depot. http://www.costafarms.com/plants/desert-gems-cacti
