>>>Tips to Decorate Small Spaces...

Small-space decorating can be a challenge, but advice from experts about living in an apartment, condo, or small home will help you make the most of the square footage you have. The key is to take advantage of small space solutions.

Here are 5 tips of small space solutions to make your small space feel grand:-

 1) Use Every Inch of Storage Space

When it comes to small spaces, smart storage is key. Taking storage to the ceiling can maximize storage space and even make the room feel large. You’ll gain storage space while creating the illusion of height. Adding a shelf around the top of other rooms can also help.

2) Choose the Right Lighting

Choose recessed, wall-mounted, hanging or shelf-mounted lighting. Floor up-lighting is also a great way to enhance a small space. When decorating a small living room that doesn’t have a lot of natural light, choosing light shades of flooring, furnishings, walls and decor can do a lot to brighten your space or you can create the illusion of daylight by putting lighting behind the curtains.

3) Try Mirror

To make the room appear larger, many expert used a mirror technique. Use large mirrors, either wall-mounted or leaned up against a wall, to create the illusion of a larger room.  A mirrored wall  is a great way to open up a small space. The reflective surface creates an optical illusion of having double the space than is actually there.

4) Use Multi-functional Areas

When space is tight, it's important to create areas that are multi-functional. Furniture needs to serve multiple purposes. A cube storage ottoman does double-duty as seating or a coffee table, a wall-mounted flip-down dining table frees up floor space when not in use.

5) Keep it clean and simple

Limit the selection of colors and patterns you use. Stick with light shades and neutral tones. Small spaces work best with a three-color (or less) palette, and do especially well with an all-white decorating scheme.

Happy decorating!!
