There are many overlooked corners of the home that don't get the care and love they should when decorating. However, even minor improvements can make a world of difference when you style your home. From stunning light fixtures to grouting and tiles, here are some examples.
The Steps and Landings
We go up them, we go down them. But does anyone ever pay attention to the stairs and the landings? These can really add to the aesthetic of a space, and a well-decorated landing has tons of potential as a library, coffee space, or den for the kids. Of course, with all the ups and downs as the family has fun, you will need stylish stair runners to reduce the noise while looking stunning! Today, stairs are just for defying gravity; they're becoming a core part of home décor!
Spruced Up Light Fixtures
Lighting is now considered a major part of the overall design aesthetic of any room and décor project. Some attention to the light that a fixture gives off can add that missing piece of homeliness to a room's feel. But what about the fixture itself? Sure, you can add fancy bulbs that you can dim or even change color. However, the actual fixture can add tons of aesthetic value to a room, especially when going with a specific design style, such as industrial.
Literal Overlooked Corners of the Home
The average homeowner decorates once every two to four years. How often do you give the doors, frames, and baseboards any real thought? From hidden door ideas to keeping baseboards sparkling, here are some quick and easy ideas for making the most of portals:
Install door trim that fits the overall design aesthetic of your home projects.
Paint or varnish frames and boards according to the color scheme of individual rooms.
Minimize clashing by keeping the style of boards and frames different from furniture.
Grouting and Tile Edges
There's nothing quite like a sparkling bathroom to make you feel proud of your home. However, even the most glamorous shower, bath, and tile work can become grotty over time. Grouting and tiles are probably the most critical parts of a bathroom project, but can be a little neglected. Tiling is, of course, challenging to install. However, repairing and cleaning tiling and grout can bring a tired bathroom back to life if you can't afford new tiles, and you can use tile paint.
The Tops of Cabinets and Shelving
There is so much unused space in a modern home. However, there are some excellent ways you can utilize the extra space in your house. The tops of cupboards and shelving are perfect examples. These are prime locations for the things you need to put away and make your home look and feel cleaner. Before doing so, wipe down surfaces! Now you can add storage boxes, extra shelving, and even have cupboards installed above the cupboards for better use of space!
Steps and landings are two of the most overlooked corners of the home that can add real value to how it looks and feels. However, the door frames and baseboards can also add powerful design aesthetics. You can also add style while using space above cupboards and shelving.
