Ways to bring the wow factor into your home

Many householders want to update their home furnishings but do not know the items and areas to concentrate on which will have the biggest impact. There are a few key points that are worth considering when you want to bring the wow factor into your home.

Mirrors are a great way to give the illusion of more space in the rooms of the house, especially in hallways. They can be used to reflect natural light back into the room lighting up dark areas effectively. The bigger the better if you want to use a mirror to create an impact is the key.

The trend for growing houseplants has declined in recent years but the luscious greenery of a large feature plant in a corner of the room creates a feeling of relaxed calm. If you have not got space for a large specimen, the same effect can be obtained by strategically placed smaller plants.

Stylish, adaptive lighting is an important aspect to achieving the right ambience in a room and can be a simple way to alter the mood from bright and lively to soft and relaxing. Consider using lamps of different sizes and designs to create the lighting you desire and do not forget that candles can be used to produce not only subtle lighting but gorgeous aromas too.
