Decorate Your Home With These Items
Spring is fast approaching, and as your thoughts steadily turn from reindeer to renovations, you may
find yourself looking to decorate your home to give it an edge. Decorating your home is a cheap, easy, and fun way to add your own style and personality to your home or to make simple improvements in preparation
for a sale that can bring great returns. As home improvement shows on TV will point out, there’s no shortage of options to consider when it comes to
decorating, so to make your job that little bit easier, check out the ideas below for some quick wins:

Wall Mirrors
Square ones, round ones, oval ones, antique ones, and odd ones; wall mirrors come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, styles, and borders, so there really is one to suit any
occasion you can think of. They can be used to add light, space, and really brighten up a
blank wall space. Then there are the practical uses as well! Put your investigator’s hat on and hit the road in search of your local thrift
and antique stores for some excellent options. You may even have luck on Craigslist or EBay.

Side Tables
Commonly overlooked but never an understatement, the humble side table is a home decorators blessing
in disguise. A corner piece, statement piece, magazine stand, coffee rest, lamp stand, remote rest – the list of practical and decorative uses is (almost) endless. Again, thrift and antique stores will be gold mines for this sort of decoration, so be sure to check
there first.

Wall Art
Picasso and DaVinci or perhaps more modest selections that suit your budget; wall art is an
excellent way to give a dull space some pizazz. If your taste is for modern art, then local galleries will happily part ways with their stock for a price, or you can get creative with a paint and brush to make something of your own. Home-wares stores frequently stock wall art as well. Besides art, don’t forget that more than just
paint looks good on a wall. Rugs, photos, posters, and wallpaper can all be used to bring a decorative spark
to your home.http://www.copenbargerlawfirm.com
Planter Boxes
Whether you have a green thumb or not, introducing planter boxes to your home is a great way to bring a breath of fresh air, literally. Consider indoor plants such as the ming aralia, peace lily, herbs such as rosemary and sage, spider plant, or the humble
cactus. You can make your own planter boxes out of recycled materials if you’re handy, or you can head to
your local hardware store or nursery for plenty of inspiration.

Table Center Pieces
When decorating your home, consider the range of accessories that can be used to highlight your
existing table furniture. Lazy susans, table runners, fruit bowls, candle trays, placemats, colorful coasters,
and even small water features are just some of the options you can use to spruce up a bare table setting.

Curtains
Looking out onto your street or yard through naked windows is hardly an inspiring image, so how about
some curtains or blinds to add decorative flair to your home? Perhaps you already have blinds or curtains
installed, but they’re a tad outdated. Head to a curtain outfitter store and get some inspiration from a
professional. Google Images is also a useful tool to get inspiration for your window makeover.

Lamps A perfect addition to those bare side tables, or a beautiful
centerpiece for a vacant corner or doorway entrance, lamps can be used to shed a decorative light over your home. With a
variety of shapes and styles, and now a selection of bulb options that create different shades of light, lamps are truly versatile
decorations for your home. Lighting and hardware stores such as Home Depot have a great range on offer and impressive display areas where you can see them in action. Since they simply plug
into a power socket, there’s no need for expensive electrical work either. Win!

Floor Rugs and Throws Perhaps you have a cold, bare, tiled floor, or perhaps carpet
that’s looking a little outdated with your new furniture purchase. Rugs and throws are a great way to add color to a dull setting. Try using rugs as centerpieces beneath coffee tables, under
dining tables, or even along a hallway at the entrance. Throws can also be used to bring life to a dull furniture piece, and can be used for extra warmth on those cold, cuddly nights on the couch.
Decorating your home is a great way to bring new life to a seemingly boring space, and can add to the bottom line when it comes to a sale. There’s many ways to decorate, and the items listed above are a great place to start in your home. Low-cost, simple, and effective, you can head into spring knowing you’ve
got some great decoration ideas covered.http://www.copenbargerlawfirm.com
