If you have a small space you are probably looking for some tips on how to make it look larger, but not boring.<\/p>\n

Here are a few tips for adding accents and accessories that can make any room look larger:<\/p>\n

\n
•  Use monochrome and light colors –<\/strong> one of the keys to making a room look larger is to use light airy colors such as white, tan, gray or beige, but that can be boring. You can add a pop to any room is with accessories, but try to stick with monochrome colors rather than mix many colors which can be distracting and can make your room look smaller.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  \n
  • Follow the Cantaloupe Rule –<\/strong> You may think that because your room is small you want to choose smaller accent pieces, but the opposite is in fact true.  Decorative pieces that are smaller than a cantaloupe can crowd a room and make it look cluttered.   Try fewer accent pieces that are bigger to give the appearance of a clutter free, larger area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n
    • Use Stripes –<\/strong> Horizontal stripes can add length or height to a small room. If your room is narrow; add a striped rug and orient it to the length of the room that is the longest for the optimal effect. Striped curtains and bed spreads can also fool the eye to think that the room is higher or longer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
      • Leave your windows uncovered –<\/strong> Clean, uncluttered windows not only adds light to your room, but can make the room feel larger.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \n<\/a><\/p>\n

        \n
        • Arranging your Accessories to make a room look larger.<\/strong> Place a comfy throw on a chair or couch on an angle facing toward the wall; this will draw the eye away from the center of the room making it look larger.  Arrange frames or mirrors in groupings that add interest and height.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
