- Move furniture around from season to season.
- Alter cushions and covers creating different looks.
- Cushions and throw rugs are a quick way of adding detail, texture and colour to a room. Make good use of them!
- Gold and silver trim on materials always adds an element of luxury.
- Artwork and ornaments deserve their own space and provide focal points to a room.
- Select a frame for artwork that will enhance the work not distract from it.
- Painting the walls in a new colour provides a quick makeover to the space at little expense.
- Be careful with the use of a feature wall of colour as it may alter the perception of depth or width to the room.
- When purchasing new furniture, think long term. It is easier to change the style of your accessories than large items like a sofa!
- If you want to disguise an ugly fixture in a room, eg timber cupboards - paint it the same colour as the walls and it will no longer stand out.
