Level Up Your Home With These 5 Tips

If your home is currently a little bit blah and you want it to be a lot more boom, listen up. Interior design is not something you do without planning, and unless you’re a DIY pro, not something you do by yourself. That said, it’s your house and you’re the boss. Use the following tips to help your interior decorators and builders liven up your home’s interior.

1. Forget the carpet for high-traffic rooms. Concrete stain is a hot look that can take a beating. Messy kids and pets don’t stand a chance and the finished look is always impressive. Easy to clean and easy to look at, stained concrete is a winner.
2. If you are decorating a smaller room or space, incorporate mirrors into your design. Mirrors create the illusion of larger space, and add depth and beauty to the room's design as well. Unique frames can also enhance the decor of the space, turning a mirror into a work of art.
3. Choose bathroom lighting carefully. In a bathroom, a single overhead light will cast an unwanted shadow, making it difficult to apply makeup or shave. A sconce on either side of the medicine cabinet will offer an even amount of light, perfect for grooming. Incandescent lighting is preferable to fluorescent lights, which can create a bluish tone.
4. Do not rush when you are painting. Rushing into a paint job can leave you with a color you will grow to loathe. Paint samples can help you figure out the perfect fit for your room. See how everything comes together under different lighting conditions. You might find that you do not like the color as much now as you did before.
5. Pedestal sinks are wonderful choices in small bathrooms. These types of sinks take up less space, and they make a small bathroom look bigger. They also have an elegant appeal to them that is classic and works with any decor. You can find them at your local home improvement store at many different price points.

You do not have to break the bank in order to make your home look nice. Adding some flowers, changing the curtains or repainting can make a world of difference. Interior design should be something anyone considers when updating their home. Remember the tips in this article for a great look!
