If when you walk into your living room and your first thought when seeing it is "blah!", it just may be time to make a change there. Spicing things up in the living room may take a little creativity and imagination, as there are several different ways you can go to liven up this important area of the downstairs living space. You may consider doing the following to make this living room transformation:
Incorporate
Premium Area Rugs Into the Decor
Premium area rugs
can add a lot of color and style to the living room. Popular area rug sizes
include 6x9, 8x10, 9x12, and 10x13. Runner rugs are also popular additions to
the room. Tasteful premium area rugs can be found in:
●
Oriental
area rugs
●
Modern
area rugs
●
Abstract
area rugs
●
Geometric
area rugs
100%
polypropylene living room area rugs do not retain stains or hide dirt. They are
easily cleaned by spot-cleaning for a few minutes and withstand pressure in
high traffic areas.
Change
Up The Living Room Decor
Perhaps a
fresh, new change in decor in the living room can translate to like changes in
other rooms in the home. Decor by style changes that are popular includes
Rustic decor, Traditional decor, Farmhouse decor, and Coastal decor.
●
Rustic:
design that's casual, natural, rough, and aged
●
Traditional:
wide range of decorating styles, from neoclassical to French country
●
Farmhouse:
the blending of modern and rustic decors
●
Coastal:
a beach-inspired decor relying on natural light and textures
Install
A Norlati Floating Entertainment Center
Switch
your old TV stand or obsolete entertainment center with this Norlati beauty.
This entertainment center, which can accommodate
TVs up to 70 inches have a backdrop with natural flair. High-quality MDF of
neutral colors will match any decor, which is considerable when it comes to
determining what decor you may want to change to (or already have changed too).
Customers have a choice of brown panel, reclaimed wood, white or sand slate.
Placed either in a corner or the middle of the room, this is a classy addition
that will go with any look or feel in the room.
Change
Out Your Pillows
This may
seem a rather minor or inconsequential move on your part, but it really can
make a big difference in the room. New pillows in the living room can add a good deal of color, flair, and texture to a room. And if a new or seasonal
change of things comes around, pillow covers befitting the change or occasion
are easy to come by and are an inexpensive way to change the look of things.
Create
A Gallery Wall
It seems
we all have photos on our phones, tablets, laptops, etc. of things we'd love to
display and see more often, but just haven't taken that "next step".
Do this here by having the photos professionally matted and framed, then figure
out the best way to display them on a wall specifically dedicated to your own
"photo gallery". It's a terrific way to show off your photography
skills, show off who or what is in the picture, and also exhibit your flair in
displaying these pieces in your "new" living room.
Make
Good Use of Shelving
If you
have shelves already built into the living room, make good use of them by
refreshing the shelves (sanding, staining, painting, etc.) and make a proud
display of books, plants, souvenirs, family heirlooms, and so on. Be sure not
to clutter shelves, or have one shelf that just collects odd "junk",
as this out-of-place shelf will throw off the look you've worked so hard to
create in the other shelves. Floating shelves are nice in that they can be
installed or moved to fit the theme or style of that wall or the room in
general.
Add
an Accent Element
Do something a little subtle yet noticeable in the living room to catch the eye of the viewer. Something that's just a bit different, like painting one wall a totally different color (or wallpapering it), putting in neon light in an otherwise sedentary-like setting or perhaps installing a wood plank or a coffered ceiling. Dare to be just a bit different, and have some fun with it.
Doing any
one of these makeovers or a combination of two or more can add a lot of life
and flair to the living room, making it a showplace in the house that you'll be
happy to show visitors the moment you put the finishing touches on it.
