Make Your Abode Beautiful By Implementing 10 Decorative Secrets

Decorative secrets for your House
Here are some of the best valuable tips & tricks to transform a boring & soulless apartment to a much lively & inspiring one.


1. Pile on the Pillows - One pair of pillows always look skimpy thus, try to put two pair of contrasting shades, patterns and colours.

2. Go for a bigger bed - Small-scale furniture only makes a small-sized bedroom look smaller. So, try a high bed with a towering headboard, which in turn makes your bedroom grow and look spacious.

3. Leave the cabinets open - Allow people to enter your secret world. As an open armoire is more captivating than a closed one.

4. Go dark - Dark walls tend to make a small room appear bigger. They are believed to usually do the opposite of what you expect.

5. Wallpaper is easy - The easiest way to transform the appearance of the sliding closet doors is to wallpaper them.

6. Use real rug in the bathroom -
Instead of using a bath mat, prefer using real rug which assures to withstand a lot more wear than the occasional wet foot.

7. Layer your lighting - Keeping four lamps is always a better option than two wherein you would require ambient light for mood and direct light for reading purpose.

8. Skirted furniture finishes a room - A host of chair and table legs can certainly make a room "nervous". Thus, prefer to keep one or two skirted piece which makes the room feel much more "grounded".

9. The significance of Plants - Plants undeniably give a lift to a lonely corner. Thus, it truly shows that there is nothing more effective than keeping a potted tree in a lonely corner of a big room.

10. Closet lighting - Do love and pamper your closets. Either paint them, paper them, hang pictures in them to inspire you. And dont forget to light them as well.

Some Fresh Decorating Ideas for Christmas

Bring joyousness to your house this holiday season with the following mentioned merry-making Christmas decorating ideas:-

1. Create a warm welcome – Our one of the most favourite ways to lighten up the season is paper luminaries and thus you can line them along front walks, driveways, and porches for a fiery Christmas display that's so simple (and affordable) to pull off.

 
 
2. Metallic sparkler – Without even overwhelming the space, create a sumptuous feel whereby you can decorate your Christmas tree with a limited colour scheme of silver, gold and bronze.

3. Set your garden theme – Convey a warm welcome via a garden inspired merry-making, holiday decorating theme. Rustic aluminium containers on the entrance, door and stairs offer casual Christmas appeal when bedecked with herbs and bright accents such as red amaryllis blooms and berries.

4. Put out Christmas lantern – Arrange a grouping of fancy & decorative lanterns at your entryway for quick & easy holiday style. You can consider using flameless candles as a worry-free alternative to usual pillars.

5. Prettify your presents - Embellish your presents by attaching bells or ornaments to the gifts wherein you can use the same colour ribbon on all your packages under the Christmas tree to make a cohesive look with non-identical patterned wrapping papers.

6. Add life to outdoor spaces – The Christmas decoration is incomplete without decorating your outdoor courtyard and porches. Wreaths, candles, and large glowing orbs draw guests outside to cozy up via the warmth of fire outside.

7. Design the staircase – Don’t forget the staircase and drape garland up the handrail of a staircase and affix it with pretty gold bows for a Christmas welcome in the hallway.
8. Hang shimmery lights - Hang twinkling Christmas lights on a fountain or stone wall in the garden to create a striking winter focal point from your entrance. Even if it’s too chilly outside, at least you can enjoy the soft cozy glow through the windowpane.

9. Float candles -
Place boot trays end to end down the center of the table. Seal the trays with silicone caulk before filling them with water and floating candles for a glowing Christmas display.
10.  Buoy up conversation flow - Place a round table in a square-shaped room for easier Christmas entertaining. The circular shape encourages conversation flow between all guests, so you’re not stuck talking just to the people on either side of you. An oversized lantern casts a romantic glow and is a fresh alternative to a traditional chandelier.
