Your drawing room in your hands!

Drawing rooms form the major part of your home and it is the first thing anyone notices about. While there are a lot of tips and tricks to make it stand out, we present a few more points that when done, make your drawing room look more welcoming!

1. Use a lively color.

Never use dull colors while painting your drawing room. Use fresh, bright and soothing color. You may also go for a textured wall as it stands out well.

2. Proper furniture

Don’t overdo your room. Use furniture that makes your drawing room look perfect. Choose the pattern and lay out of couches and sofas such that they compliment your drawing room.

3. Place flowers

If not real, use paper made or plastic flowers that are bright in color and place them in corners of the room and on tables or shelves.

Tip: Spray your plastic flowers with room fresheners or perfumes. The fragrance stays longer and gives aromatic aura to your room.

4. Use carpets.

If you can, you must place carpets and rugs as they bring about richness to the room and give a filling look.

5. Use clocks/ paintings/ decorative according to the mood of the room.

Sometimes, unknowingly, we end up putting all the things together and making the room look clustered. Instead focus on the theme you most like. Be it antique, contemporary, medieval and so on. But place things accordingly and see the difference.

6. Buy fragrant candles.

You may not actually use them but setting in colorful candles brings good luck and a positive feeling to your drawing room, making it appear more welcoming.

7. Place an idol.

Not necessarily who you worship but place an idol that has a peaceful face and manifestation that sets in the calmness.

8. Covers, table tops or sheets- blend in.

Blend in your sheets or the covers with the theme or color you have been following. You may throw a hint of color here and there. Also, always make your furniture comfortable with cushions and pillows. Nothing looks more inviting.

9. Keep the important stuff out.

No matter how beautiful, you must keep certain stuff out of the drawing room. Bet it the key holder, cctv monitor, TV or even purses. These should not be allowed into the drawing room as these are distracting and valuable of course.
