Add the WOW Factor to Your Room

By Darlings Of Chelsea

Pleasantly enough, it doesn’t take a complete makeover to transform a room in your home. Sometimes the mere addition of one or two items, carefully placed to create the wow factor, is all you need to breathe new life into it.

Here we’ve provided you with some great examples.

Go Aqua!

A rug can transform any room, providing something soft to sink your feet into, and something to catch the eye. Imagine this soft aqua rug in your bathroom perhaps or in any room where it blends with the colour scheme. Indeed, it would sit extremely well in front of any one of a number of designer sofas.

Shocking Curtains

Taking away an old pair of curtains and replacing them with high-quality individually made ones can be a good move as well. Consider the gorgeous summer yellow curtains here and think about whether a block of colour could look superb in your chosen room.

Unusual Wall Coverings

When we think of wall art we tend to think solely of paintings or prints. But there is another angle you can take. Wall art and wall stickers are becoming very popular and can be found in a variety of styles and sizes. Take this children’s giraffe wall sticker by Oakdene Designs for example. This would add fun and brighten any child’s bedroom wall.

Add Some Indoor Sculptures

If you have the room, there are plenty of ways to catch the eye in an unusual way. Consider this example of an indoor sculpture; there are plenty more to look for as well. Do you have the space to accommodate something that would transform your room and give it that longed for ‘wow’ factor?

Bring Everything Together

Sometimes it isn’t about buying new things – it’s more about making the most of what you have. Designer sofas will instantly provide the wow factor you’re looking for, but you can also think about making the most of some other possessions. Photo frames, small vases, a lamp or a wall hanging of some kind –bring them all together in one place and arrange them to great effect.

Dress to Impress

You can do this in any room of the home. Use accessories to make more of what you already have. Designer sofas can be enhanced with luxurious contrasting cushions. Add a throw to the back of the sofa to use when the weather isn’t so good. You can achieve something similar in the dining room by dressing up the table, perhaps adding a centrepiece instead of leaving the table bare.

Which Tricks Will You Use to Impress?

You can see there are countless ways to get the wow factor in your home. Simply consider all the options available to you and choose the ones that have the most appeal. Whether you add a wall hanging, a huge rug or some eye-catching table decorations, you’ll transform what could be an average space into a sensational one.

Then you can sit back on those designer sofas and admire your handiwork!
