How to Decorate the Little Spaces in Your Home

April 29, 2012 - PRLog -- Many people are under the mistaken impression that small spaces don’t need to be decorated.  Too often, these little nooks and crannies, which are often hidden in people’s homes, are left drab and boring.  The reality is that no space is too small to decorate.  Sprucing up these areas of a home can add a distinct flair and charm that people might not have realized was possible.

My Wonderful Walls recently posted a blog encouraging readers to take advantage of every part of their home – no matter how big or small it may be. Their simple decorating ideas can also help these small spots in the home to feel much bigger.

The first thing to remember is that a small space can easily get overwhelmed with furniture.  A piece of furniture that seems average sized in a regular room can take over a small space.  It is better to use furniture wisely and have them serve a dual purpose in order to make as much space as possible.

A credenza in a small space is a great way to use furniture as a means of space saving.  With a credenza, homeowners have many different decorative options, but they also get storage and hidden storage at that. Furniture in a small space should ideally have more than one purpose or be easily stored away.

Small rooms can also be transformed with something as simple as an area rug.  This is an old home designer’s trick.  Get a light colored area rug with a fun design and watch how a little space starts to feel much larger. Designers often like to use bold colors for small spaces as well. It is best to stick with bright colors that will also help to open up a small space and make it seem bigger.

In a small space, it is important to use everything available, which also includes the walls. If painting is out of the question, consider using a mural or worded decal from My Wonderful Walls.  My Wonderful Walls is well known for their large selection of wall murals, decals, and decoration, which can transform any small space into a beautiful designer’s paradise.

With a little creative exploration any tiny room, small space, or little area in a home can be transformed. Homeowners can make any small space beautiful and create an illusion that a small space is actually much bigger than it really is. In a small space, people can let their imagination go wild because they can do things in a small area that they could never do in a larger room.
