6 Simple Home Decorating Tips For a Fresh New Look

7/26/2019

When you're not quite ready to start from scratch for a completely new interior design at the Lake of the Ozarks, you can still achieve a fresh new look for the rooms in your home. This can be done by simply changing out or moving around the items you already have or adding just one new spectacular piece from John Elliott Interiors. Here are a few easy tips for giving any room a quick makeover.


Paint
Adding new color to a space can make it feel like a brand new room. You can go all out and paint every single wall in the room or just paint an accent wall to add a bit of flair. Adding color to the backs of open shelves is also a wonderful way to change things up.

Change the Layout
An excellent way to quickly freshen up the look of any room is to rearrange the furniture. Switching the positions of two chairs or simply moving the couch away from the wall is a small change but it can make a big difference to both the look and flow of the space. You can even switch out furniture between rooms for a bigger change.


Add One New Item
You don't have to replace every single piece of furniture in a room to create a new look. Adding just one brand new piece can bring new life to the items you already own. We carry a fantastic selection of home accents, wall art, sculptures, and more at our home interiors stores at the Lake of the Ozarks if you only want to add something small. If you want to make a bigger change, consider a new sofa, a side chair, or maybe even a new area rug.

Create a Focal Point
Every room should have one piece of furniture or a design element, such as a fireplace or large picture window, that serves as a focal point. It brings your focus to a certain point and draws you into the room. This is also a wonderful starting point for designing the rest of the space. There is often an opportunity for more than one choice for a room's focal point. When you're ready for a change, arrange items in the room so that focus is drawn to a new area and away from the former focal point.


Switch Out Seasonal Decor
Each season has something about it that sets it apart and you can showcase that through the home accents you display in each room. In the spring, put away those heavy winter throws and bring out lighter, airier decor. Every new season and each holiday is an excellent excuse to change things up and give a room an entirely new look.

Display a Prized Collection
Your favorite things can be used in a clever way to decorate a room. It's best to group a lot of pieces of a collection together in one area or two rather than dispersing them individually throughout the space. If your collection is large, you don't need to show it all off at once but instead choose a few pieces to highlight and switch them out when you feel like it. Your collection of prized possessions is not only terrific for decorating but those items also serve as fun conversation pieces. They also give you something specific to keep an eye out for when you browse the showroom of our Lake of the Ozarks luxury furniture store.


A room can feel like a brand new space without changing every single thing about that room. The talented professionals at John Elliott Interiors can help you find that one special item to bring new life to a space and fit in perfectly with your existing decor. Of course, when you are ready for a complete redesign, our Lake of the Ozarks interiors designers are up for that challenge as well! Bring us your ideas and we will help you turn them into a beautiful reality.
