A small room in your home doesn’t mean you need to skimp on the decor. With certain tips and tricks, you’ll have a room worth living in regardless of its size.

• Draw the eyes up.  If you have a room with limited floor space, you might feel like it is impossible to decorate and furnish this room.  However, drawing the eyes up will help create the illusion of a much larger room.  Installing curtains right below the crown molding will instantly make the room feel bigger.

• Use more than one lighting source.  Don’t rely solely on overhead lighting.  Slim lamps, wall sconces, or any wall mounted light will brighten up any space and make it feel bigger.

• Use correct scale.  While you might be tempted to use your oversized sofa because of its comfort, remember that it might make your already small space feel even smaller.  Take measurements and find a couch that is truly right for that room.

• Use that statement piece.  While incorporating too much furniture is a big no-no, adding statement pieces like artwork are a big yes-yes. Select one over scaled piece that will add some interest to your room.

• Keep furniture away from the walls.  Floating your Funiture slightly away from the walls can help to create that more open look.
