How to Decorate a Room
-
Choose your theme
Choose your color scheme and the look you want to go for. This will dictate what decor to get and the linen you should purchase. -
Introduce your base colors
Choose a color scheme for your carpets, rugs, curtains, and any other fabric items. They should match or be complementary. -
Add a few reflective items
Bring in a few glass or metallic items. This will bring balance to the matte textures. -
Choose your wall decor
Add mirrors to enlarge a room. Paintings will add a matte feel, creating a homey atmosphere. -
Bring a light source into the room
Ensure there is enough strong light in the room. If the windows are small, add candles and lamps, which are also decorative.
