Room Decorating


             Most people over look the houseplant. However, you can effectively use houseplants to provide color and style to highlight your homes best features or cover up the problem area's you don't want anyone to notice. Houseplants can be used in a variety of ways to add to your existing decorative style or create a new focal point. Plants can also be used to highlight a decorative element in your room. A large planting or grouping several houseplants together can create an impressive focal point. Think of choosing a large that blends with your rooms color scheme. Fiscus Benjamina is a common choice for an entranceway or bare kitchen focal point. For the most dramatic contrast in your room, look at the different color variations and separate the other plants to highlight that particular plant. .
             Furniture Arrangement is another decorating basic of your home. But where to start? Start with the living room. .
             With a room in a shape of an "L" it is hard to hold a conversation with the person at the other side of the room. The piano is to close to other furniture and there is no division between the living room and dining room. .
             Add a leaf to the much to small table, then place a rug under it to make the room seem larger. A rug is not the only thing that can fix the small table. Include a buffet to the longest wall to give height and add more china space. Now separating the room, with a moveable screen it helps to create "disconnected" rooms. Place the chair next to the piano to give it more room and rotate love seat towards other seating pieces, put a table behind the love seat to constrict the conversation. This room is dull and boring, the fireplace and the TV armoire are both focal points but are placed next to each other. The room is set up like a maze of furniture. The couches are to far apart for trouble-free conversation. .
             The first thing to be done is create many different focal points. Form a "hallway" behind the conversation so that there will be no disruptions with people walking threw.
