Decorating small living rooms can be a challenge for you who want a spacious space and a room that is nice to use. It is possible to decorate your living room with these decorating ideas to achieve what seems impossible.
1. Use themes
Thinking thematically is a good way to start decorating. Choose a favorite color or style and work with it. You can choose classic, temporary, rustic etc. for your enjoyment. Gather ideas from websites, visit furniture stores, visit other houses and study them. Check out your local library for books on the subject. There are many ideas you can find, and you may also want to combine different ideas from different sources. You may want to take photos and take some notes when doing the research. You will spend a lot of time in the living room, so it's worth spending some time planning its decoration. You can also find a way to add your individuality to the room. Whether you are obsessed with cocks, 80s memorabilia or an actress, you can find a way to show your individuality in your living room. The object you choose does not have to be anywhere in the room, just find a subtle way to make it look and blend it with the other decorative elements.
2nd Keep things "small"
If you use large furniture, your living room will really be messy. Nowadays, many stores sell small furniture and decorative items for small houses. Always prefer to buy the little ones, and don't forget to buy too many small items. If your room has enough space, it might be a good idea to use a larger sofa rather than six chairs. If there are too many objects on the floor, try using high furniture (such as lamps or clocks) to get attention upwards in the living room.
3rd Use mirrors
Everyone knows that mirrors make a room look more spacious and make places look bigger than they really are. Mirrors not only reflect the space of the room, they also add more light to the room, which is why they are such an important part of the decor. If you decide to use a mirror, position it so that it reflects the light, not the dark-colored wall. There are mirrors in many shapes and sizes today, so why not choose some for your living room?
4th Position items correctly and accessories
So you have chosen your furniture and your decorative objects, what should you do now? Arrange them in a way that best suits your living room. Think about how you use your living room. What you do in your room (watching TV, reading, entertaining friends, etc.) will affect how you organize it. There should be areas that you can easily go through. You should also customize your room appropriately so that your living room is customized. The books or objects you use reflect your personality and make it a fun place to live. Just don't use too much and keep it functional. Use the walls.
5th Use the walls
Your living room may be small, but that doesn't mean you can't decorate enough. There are lots of walls in any room, so use them to hang objects or decorate with wallpaper, fabric or paint. Be creative and hang different things. You may want to have small shelves on the walls to display some of your favorite items that cannot be hung. But if your furniture, rugs and pillows are heavily colored and patterned, you may want to keep the walls neutral so you don't overwhelm the room. Furniture is difficult to replace, so when you get bored of your living room decoration, feel free to change any walls and accessories.
