    Default Living Room Decorating Ideas

    Furniture Arrangement
    The design and spacing of you living room may call for a certain type of furniture arrangement. If you have a fireplace in your living room, position your sofa and recliner on a wall beside it. Both the items can also be placed several feet directly in front of the fireplace. If your living room is large and spacious, the sofas can be placed facing each other. Take care that your furniture should neither be too large, nor too small, in proportion to the living room. Do not use too many furniture items in the living room.



    Wall Décor
    You can cover your walls with beautiful wall hangings to impart character to the living room. In fact, you can make use of your creative abilities and create some homemade wall hangings, which are also non-expensive. Visit your local poster or art shop and pick some aesthetic prints, which you can get framed and use as wall hangings. Framed family photographs can also be hung on the walls. However, do not cover the walls completely, as it will make the room look cumbersome.



    Choose Convenient & Classy Furnishings
    Tables with drawers and shelves are required to add convenient storage facilities to the living room. You might want a few things at your quick disposal. You can try a versatile ottoman topped with a tray that will appear like an impromptu cocktail table. If you want to keep it very basic and minimalist, go for a simple desk fitted with shelves, which can be multipurpose.




    Cushions & Slip Covers
    Cushions, in bright and matching colors, can be added to your lounge. It will not cost you a lot and at the same time, will give a new, changed look to your chairs. Covers will also help conceal any scratches on your chairs that have appeared over time. The mood of the room can be changed by adding slip covers, once you are done with the cushions. Modern mix and match colors in different textures would look beautiful.





    Window Valances
    You can actually bring about a transformation in the look of your living room just by installing window valances on the windows. A window valance is a small-sized decorative curtain and is much shorter when compared to the normal curtains. Window valances look pretty on a bare window, over the existing curtains or the window blinds. They make the windows look larger and are a beautiful addition to the living room.

    Default Vinyl Wall Art

    Vinyl wall art is a terrific new trend allowing you to place removeable heartfelt quotes on your walls. A cricut cutting machine allows you to design and cut the vinyl yourself giving you the freedom to custom select quotes meaningful to you and your family.

    Default Guest Room Decoration Ideas

    Guest room decoration




    * Your first step should be to choose a theme for your guest room. Select a theme that is personal to you and start from there. If you like old movies, make it as the theme of your room. Start with hanging popular old movie posters! If someday you plan to go Hawaii, Hawaiian décor can also be your theme!

    * Decide on a color to paint the ceiling and walls of your guest room. The color you choose should complement the theme and décor you have selected for the room. Blue will a good choice for Hawaiian theme. Similarly, white or rosy pink is a good choice for a Victorian room.



    * A good, comfortable sleeping place is an important part of a comfortable guest room. So, opt for large and comfortable bed, which fits into your budget. It wouldn’t be a good idea to put old and saggy mattress in your guest room. If your budget can’t afford old new mattresses, air mattresses can be your choice.

    * After clean bedding, it’s time to think about adding colorful bed linens and comfort items, like pillows and blankets. Offer your guests fluffy towels, cozy bathrobe, and slippers to make it just perfect. It will be thoughtful to have an extra set of bed and bath linen for your guest room!



    * Pay attention to the lighting in your guest bedroom. Ensure that there is adequate light for reading, knitting, sewing, watching TV etc. Arrange bulbs or lights in such a way that there is even distribution of lights in the room. Place a table lamp or night lamp on a bedside table . A small nightlight in the room will be a great idea! It will help your guest to find his/ her way around unfamiliar surroundings, at night.

    * It’s essential to provide your guest with luggage rack or bench, where he/she can open a suitcase and unpack.



    * Don’t stuff your guestroom closets with your off season clothes. They should offer enough space to your guests. Don’t forget to supply closet with plenty of hangers. Keeping an ironing board and iron in the closet will make your guests feel very comfortable!

    * A few hours before the guests arrive; decorate the room with fresh flowers in a pretty vase. A bowl filled with wrapped chocolates will add a nice touch to the room.

    * Stuff the room with some basic things like alarm clock, radio, and television! Provide paper, pencil, pen, tissues, and a hair dryer to your guests. Adding a phone in the room will be much appreciated!
