DECORATING MISTAKES MAKING YOUR HOME LOOK SMALL

A small space can be a good thing it’s cozy, it’s intimate but let’s face it. Most of the time it’s a decorating challenge, and you’re thinking, “If I just had a few more square feet!” I hear you. I also know there’s a very good chance you’re making at least one or two of these design mistakes that can make any space seem smaller than it actually is.

check out these mistakes and pick up some of the pros’ quick and easy fixes below. You just might “find” what looks like more space in each of your rooms.

1) Playing it safe with paint

A deep wall color will blur the edges of the room, taking the focus away from the size.

2) Ignoring the windows

Some people skip curtains because they think they’ll drag down a room that’s on the smaller side, but window treatments can actually elongate a room if you hang your curtain rod just under the ceiling instead of right above the frame mand let the drapes reach the floor.

3) Keeping all the furniture small

Let’s dispel a small-space myth right here: Just because your living room is a little cramped doesn’t mean you need to use a loveseat, settee, or apartment-sized sofa.

4) Leaving the walls bare

Minimalism does help a small space feel airier than it really is, but the walls are one place where you can always squeeze in extra stuff. Wherever you have items piling up on a counter or floor, consider adding shelves or a floating cabinet above. “Anything that isn’t used daily or doesn’t look good on display can go behind cabinet doors or inside a storage basket.”
