Six Small Details That Can Make Or Break The Look Of Your Home Home Decoration by Emma Sturgis - February 25, 2014March 22, 2014 The look of your home is very important. A well done look can make your home feel inviting and warm. When deciding on a home decor scheme, it is vital to pay attention to all details. Effective use of thoughtful curtain placement or a single picture will create a harmonious whole. Door Choices A door is the first thing people see when they enter a room. Make sure your doors fit the overall look you want. Choose materials that blend well with the rest of the room. Consider unexpected woods like bamboo if you are aiming for an Asian look.

Many stores, like Toliver’s Carpet One Floor & Home, have well trained employees that can help you find the right flooring for your home. A mixture of carpets and hard woods may be just the right way to make any room feel modern and comfortable at the same time. Furniture Placement Effective furniture placement can help people gather together and feel comfortable in any space. Awkward furniture placement can impede movement and make conversation or just relaxing difficult. Consider creating a map of the room with all your furniture represented to figure where to place items. Paint Color Consider paint colors in any room before you begin. Darker shades can help a room feel cozy and intimate. Lighter shades can help bring in air and light even in an otherwise airless space. Wall Hangings Wall hangings like paintings and textured fabric can add color and a sense of life to any room. Even a small picture, when properly placed, can serve as a focal point in a room. Examine the item carefully before you buy it. Think about exactly where to place it in the room. Window Coverings Windows are one of the most important parts of any room. Pay attention to them as you create a look. Window coverings such as blinds and curtains can help create a formal look to the room or make it clear the room is for informal use. A soft cotton shade in one corner can make the room feel calm and inviting. More elaborate curtains can create an air of mystery and drama. Carefully considered attention to all details of any home decorating plan will pay off in the end. Create a coherent space with a well thought out, highly detailed, well executed look.
