vertical surfaces, and draw the eye upward.

Use accent tables that provide extra storage.
Storage ottomans are also great because they provide extra storage and seating.

A light, neutral color scheme creates a sense of spaciousness
by allowing light to bounce freely throughout the room.

Use a large mirror propped against a wall, or stacked mirrors
to create a sense of depth within a space.
Happy Monday!

Great advice! I am always looking for tips to make our tiny postage stamp of a house look slightly bigger (storage is a massive problem for us). 'Going verical' is definitely something that could work for us! Thanks Elizabeth!
ReplyDeleteI've used most of these elements in our home. All of them together really make a huge difference!!
ReplyDeleteOur home is fairly small so I'm always trying to maximize our space and try to make pieces multi-purpose whenever possible. With #4 I'm on the hunt to find a credenza or buffet with exposed legs to double as a media stand. Thanks for the ideas.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! Thanks for sharing. I am in love with that mirror in the second to last photo!
ReplyDeleteGreat tips and gorgeous photos!!
ReplyDeleteAll good advice!!
ReplyDeleteGreat tips, especially the built-ins and big mirrors!
ReplyDeleteI think having 'leggy' furniture is a great tip. I almost always look for furniture that has even a very small leg - it makes such a difference! I'm in the process of converting my ensemble bed into something that looks like an upholstered bed with timber legs (hopefully) in an effort to get that little bit more floor space under the furniture. Great post!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, Elizabeth. The built ins in the first photo left me breathless...
ReplyDeleteI'm also thinking that the Ghost Chairs in the second to last photo couldn't hurt. A room would seem bigger if you could see through the furniture :)
Wonderful images and brilliant tips, overall a great way to start the week, cheers!

My place is teeny tiny, but I do love it. Great advice. Now if only my place looked even remotely like even one of these!
