home decor ideas

The decor of a room plays a huge role in determining how big or small it looks. 

Here are some tried and tested tips to make your space look bigger:

1. Light paint

Ditch the darks and embrace the light colors for your walls. The general rule is that the lighter the wall paint, the more open your space looks. The darker the shades on the walls, the more closed and small the space becomes. And it really isn’t hard getting furniture to go along with light walls. You have regular furniture like couches, coffee tables, chairs, and even special high-utility furniture like ottomans and hidden TV lift cabinets available in many colors and textures. So, let there be light!

2. Limit the number of furniture pieces

If your space is small, try not to fill it up with too much stuff. Practically speaking, stick to the basic furniture and leave enough space for traffic flow. That means having the regular couches and center table and maybe one multi functional piece of furniture like a hidden TV lift cabinet

There are some design ideas that are so commonly implemented that you don’t even realize that they are actually mistakes that are limiting the aesthetics of your space. 

Check out the 4 most basic mistakes people do:

• Pushing furniture against the walls- finished backs

Most of us feel that pushing the furniture all the way against the walls makes the space look bigger. Well, the truth is, that it makes the room look rather dull, with a sterile vacuum in the middle! That is absolutely no good! Instead, if you bring the furniture towards the middle of the room, you'll have a more inviting space, one that welcomes conversations. 

One quick tip to avoid having to push the furniture to the walls is to have finished backs. That is why we have an entire range of hidden TV lift cabinets that are fully finished. You can place such hidden TV lift cabinets anywhere. The same goes for other pieces of furniture too.

• Having an inappropriate rug (color and size-wise)

You may not have any major renovation plans in mind, but it is recommended to have a monthly home improvement budget.  Any guesses why?  Read on to know more.

1. To be future-ready- It’s surprising how stuff suddenly needs repairs. The boiler that was working just fine until yesterday refuses to behave itself today, or the fridge simply decides not to cool anymore. There’s no way you can put off these urgent repairs and here’s where your monthly home improvement budget will come in handy. You’d have already set aside money for such problems and won’t be forced to look through the kids’ piggy-banks for the much-needed cash. 
2.  To keep you financially organized- All of us have an urge to spend on a particular sort of stuff. Some go crazy shopping for their wardrobe, some for shoes, some for tools, and some simply can’t hold themselves back when they step into an Ikea or Wayfair store. The next time you’re out shopping for the home, think of your budget. It will help keep a check on your

So, you’ve got a beautiful log cabin. It’s your go-to vacation spot, but man, do you miss the TV there! Suppose you do get a TV there, it’ll be an beautiful combination. So, what do you do? You try finding a solution to the possible issues. 

The trouble that a TV can cause are:

1. Clash with the decor-  Sleek, modern TVs, and rustic log cabins just don’t go together. While the cabin is old-world charming, a TV is a modern blackhole and at best an eyesore from the decor point of view. Completely ruins the look of the place.
2. Ruining the mood- When you are out on an adventure vacation and want to spend quality time with family, without being bothered by devices, a TV is the last thing you want playing in the background.
