Decorating Room Ideas

2009-09-25T20:40:00.000-07:00

Not all home decorating ideas require a huge investment of time and money. If you’re looking for a few affordable home interior decorating ideas to freshen up a room over a weekend, try these ten.

1. Rearrange the Furniture- Pull your furniture away from the walls. Try positioning it at intriguing angles. For example, a sofa arranged diagonally across a narrow living room will make the room look wider.

2. Paint A Wall- Paint one wall your favorite color and make it the focal point. Hang interesting art on that wall and move a nice piece of furniture there. (Make sure that the color is one that is shared with several other objects and fabrics in the room.)

3. Bring in Plants- Greenery always adds a breath of fresh air to a room. If you don’t have a green thumb, try silk plants and trees. The quality has gotten so good that it’s hard to distinguish them from the real thing.

4. Lay An Area Rug- An area rug is a wonderful way of defining a conversation area. Try one that complements the room. Lay it at an angle beneath your coffee table.

5. Hang Pictures or a Mirror- Hang pictures that reflect your personality. Try frames that are more ornate. When hanging a mirror, try and position it so that it reflects a nice view or an interesting architectural element.

6. Group Figurines- Pull out your favorite collectibles. Show off your personality. Find a display area and group related objects together, in sets of three or five. Try and vary the shapes.

7. Add Decorative Pillows- The good news about decorative pillows is that they are an easy way to add textures and patterns to a room. Still better, they can be changed to jazz up a sofa or chair before your room is ready for a major makeover.

8. Replace Lamps- Lamps are probably the one thing in your home that will give others a clue that your room is outdated. Seek out new and fresh lamps that make a statement.

9. Add a Throw or Afghan- Similar to decorative pillows, throws and Afghans add texture to your furniture. They come in all kinds of natural and man made fabrics. Find a pattern and style that you like.

10. Eliminate Clutter- Clutter has a way of eliminating the desired mood and effect of any room. Find storage spaces for papers, toys, and other items that take from the personality of a room.

Decorating with Color

2009-09-25T20:39:00.000-07:00

For thousands of years, colors have been used to solicit emotional responses from both humans and animals. When you’re getting ready to decorate your new apartment, think about the moods that you want to convey in each room. Read below to find out what each color can do for a person emotionally and sometimes physically. Perhaps you’ll discover why red is your favorite color too!

The color RED is the warmest of all colors; it’s associated with heat, love and comfort, it symbolizes action, confidence, passion, courage, life, survival, passion, lust and vitality. Red can also be an intense color that creates feelings of excitement, intensity, danger or even anger. If you like red, you’re probably an extrovert. Using red in the home can increase your enthusiasm, interest and energy. It can subconsciously create confidence and help you get over fear and anxiety.

The color ORANGE is a power color. It’s not a good color to use in a kitchen if you’re on a diet as it is said that it increases the craving for food. Orange symbolizes enthusiasm, creativity, warmth, play, endurance and vitality. If your favorite color is orange, you’re probably a curious person who loves to explore new things. People who like the color orange are most often caring and honest. Orange is a dynamic color and can be used in a similar manner, for similar purposes as red, yet it is not as harsh. Orange can be used in a room to increase creativity, provide levity and create action.

YELLOW is a color that is great for kitchens as one of the properties of the color is to increase metabolism. Yellow symbolizes happiness, joy, wisdom, intellectual energy and it brings clarity and awareness into a room. It is cheery and warm, but be careful of the shade that you use when decorating with it. Since yellow reflects a high amount of light, it is the color that is most fatiguing to the eye. Bright or mustard shades of yellow can also generate feelings of frustration and anger. It has been noted that babies tend to cry more and people are more likely to lose their tempers in yellow rooms. In a room, yellow can help sharpen memory and concentration skills, help make better decisions, cheer you up, provide relief from tiredness, panic or exhaustion and help with creative projects.

If you’re a big nature buff, go GREEN. It symbolizes nature, self-respect, life, tranquility, good luck, fertility, health, learning, growth, transformation, money, harmony, well-being and, on the negative side, jealousy. Green can be used in decorating to create balance in a room. Green can help improve reading ability, relieve stress and help in the healing process, both emotionally and physically. In a room, green can be calming, help provide the impetus for change or growth and help protect against fear and anxiety.
