Expensive items tend to have weight and volume to them (that\u2019s why heavier gold bangles appear more luxurious than lighter ones that feel like\u2014and possibly are\u2014made of plastic). Avoid flimsiness at all costs: add an extra panel of curtains to your curtain rod, and search for quality carpets and throw blankets that great to the touch. Additionally, accessorize with weighty accent pieces; vases, picture frames, and ornaments should all feel like they\u2019ve got something to them\n

Create Your Own Statement Artwork\n
\n
If your room lacks a preexisting focal point, create one using artwork. One option is to create a multi-panel piece (one picture blown up and printed onto three panels hung next to each other) or a gallery-type display of frames.\n
$\"\"$ \n
Go Big\n
Hiking up the size of your decor creates a big impression, even if the pieces aren\u2019t too pricy, says Yael Meromy of design firm Studio D. \u201cWe love to use large-scale art and d\u00e9cor, like a massive canvas that takes up an entire wall or a well-oversized thick-framed mirror that leans against the wall instead of hanging, to create a space that\u2019s impactful, memorable and grand,\u201d she says.\n
$\"\"$ \n
Create a Vignette\n
Otherwise \u201cdead space\u201d can be dressed up to make the whole room look more styled. \u201cAreas like coffee tables, consoles, empty corners of a kitchen counter \u2026 are all prime real estate for a well dressed vignette,\u201d says Cummings.\n
$\"\"$ \n
Stick With the Classics\n
\n
Have you ever noticed how most high-end homes are flooded with neutrals? This is because neutrals feel calm and classic. Bring high style to rooms by choosing neutral hues for anything that\u2019s expensive to update, such as floors, fixtures, and upholstery, and using accessories to introduce bold colors and textures; a neutral base lets hotter hues take center stage.\n
$\"\"$ \n
Spend Your Money Wisely\n
Pay attention to detail when buying staple items. Furniture that is made well will give your space a high-end look. And spending money on long-haul items, like a couch, allows you to mix in refurbished thrift items or\u00a0DIY projects\u00a0while keeping the look of the room upscale.\u00a0It\u2019s important to invest in your staple items, but buy budget-friendly items when purchasing throw pillows\u00a0and other accessories. This combination creates a high-end look that has design longevity without making you go over budget.\n
$\"\"$ \n
Complement Your Door with a Burst of Color\n
\n
It’s a common choice to paint front doors an inviting, vibrant color like a lush green or cherry red to help welcome visitors. Carry this idea inside by adding a splash of a complementary color in your entryway. This could be a bright rug, a painted chair or bench, a piece of art or an entire wall. The key is to continue that vibrant welcoming experience from the front door into your home.\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
Mother Nature\n
\n
Let a local nature feature that you love, especially one that you already encourage outside your home, like birds, bunnies, herbs or flowers, inspire your entryway design. Use this feature to guide all your entryway d\u00e9cor decisions. Buy wall decor, frames and other compatible entryway items to create a unified space.\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
Pick a Single Piece to Show Off\n
\n
For entryways that have a little bit more space and can give visitors an opportunity to look around a bit, pick one large art piece to showcase. Large paintings or statues are common choices (anything from pastoral scenes to abstract experiments can work well). Center your piece where visitors will immediately see it, and keep tables and other items to a minimum so they don’t distract.\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
Nesting Tables\n
Nesting tables work great for small spaces and\u00a0cutting clutter.\u00a0Use them as an end table and set a lamp on top, then pull out the shorter tables when you need more tables for guests.\n
$\"\"$ \n
Small Room Ideas: Furniture with Legs Showing\n
\n
Opting for\u00a0furniture with legs showing\u00a0opens up a small space. Compared to large furniture pieces that rest directly on the floor without legs showing, which can appear too big and bulky for a small space, furniture with legs showing draws the eye upward and creates the illusion of more light and space in a small room.\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
Small Room Ideas: Clear Furniture\n
\n
Opt for see-through furniture, such as a glass coffee table or clear acrylic desk. Clear furniture helps to make a small room feel more open while still proving a useful surface and a unique design element. This is a great tip for\u00a0how to make a small living room look bigger.\n
