Accessories Make a Room

1343

Choose a room’s accessories carefully – too much and the room looks cluttered and chaotic; too little and the space appears cold and impersonal. What is not necessary is to spend a fortune on accessorizing a room. Again, look around the home to see what can be moved around to give a fresh appeal. In a dimly lit room, add silver plated accent pieces and a few mirrors to reflect the light. In a large room, add lots of artwork on a single large wall to make the room appear smaller and more intimate.

Budget buster tip: Second hard stores, flea markets and yard sales are the best way to accessorize a home. For mere pennies on the dollar, a room or an entire house can be dressed in high end pieces that look like a million bucks. Try Value Village, The Junction (Oak Bay at Fort Street), or Sweet Peas at Home (Fort Street).
