10 Tips for Living Room Decorating 
by Eclectic Elements


1) Create new roles: Craft an instant end table with a stacked set of your favorite reads.

2) Embrace the paint: Mix in a bold accent―like a zebra print―to add some contrast to a low-key sofa.

3) Put pattern on the floor: Add tactile and visual interest to a room with a patterned rug.

4) Shop with style & function: Choose a living-room lamp that’s lovely to look at, whether it’s on or off.


5) Watch a mirror work: Make a room appear brighter and larger by positioning a mirror to reflect light and a view.


6) Shop for double-duty pieces: Like a couch as deep as a daybed that offers extra sleeping space.


7) Experiment with Fabrics: Enliven a couch with an inexpensive material, Burlap, giving it surprising character.


8) Welcome pops of color: Give emphasis to a neutral room by adding a few smart hits of color.


9) Let pieces work together: Use a rug to draw the eye in the direction of furniture you want to highlight.


10) Bring in Flowers: Perk up a room with a bouquet of vibrant flowers set in an equally vibrant vase
