4 Gorgeous Additions to Pretty Up Your Living Room

You might have done everything by the book in your living room: You followed the trends, you didn’t over-clutter it, you only used neutral colors and made sure they don’t clash – and yet, something isn’t quite right. There is something missing to really make the room pop and look special. Well, not everyone has the eye to spot what that little missing detail is, but by adding one or more of these four items, you can rest assured that your living room will look amazing as anything!

A Grand Mirror

Mirrors aren’t just a matter of practicality – they are art. And they are especially important when you have a small space because they will make a room look three times bigger. Not only will they mirror the space and give it breath, but they will also reflect all the natural light, filling the room and making it brighter completely naturally. There are two ways you can go with mirrors – framed or frameless. If you go for a framed mirror, make sure the frame matches the aesthetics of the room you’re putting it in. If it’s wood, make sure it matches the rest of the wood, and if it’s metal, make sure it goes with the metals. You can also make some changes with the mirror itself, like getting one with an aged look for a vintage aesthetic.

A Ceiling Fan

Fans have been sort of forgotten in the past years as regular ceiling lamps have taken over. But the southern fan aesthetic can bring so much into your space. Forget your nan’s old, wooden fan that would squeak and throw dust everywhere whenever it was turned on, and think into the future. Look at the ModernFanOutlet for modern ceiling fans and find something that really matches your aesthetic. Whether that’s full glam with rhinestones and gems, or something modern and sleek, perhaps made out of a dark metal? There is something for everyone and it’s a stylish and practical addition that really draws the eye upwards.

A Plant Wall

Bringing some greenery indoors will always be in style – whether that greenery is real or plastic. Something that will definitely catch everyone’s attention is a green wall, which just means a wall that is dedicated to plants. You can achieve this in a multitude of ways: a popular one is to find vines that can literally grow up your walls and make them green and lush. Another is to just fill the space with plants – large ones from pots on the floor, smaller plants on shelves on the wall, and finally some hanging plants from the ceiling to complete the look.

A Rug

A good rug can completely transform a living space. There are two main things you should always ask yourself, and that is size and print. If you throw in a carpet that is too big, it will eat up space and make it look small, and if you put in something tiny, it will just look ridiculous. For the design, you should always go for something with a bit of a pattern or an off-color, or you’ll be able to see every footprint that ever crossed it. 

By incorporating one of these items, you can rest assured that your living space will be the talk of the town and you’ll feel like you’re sitting on the front page of a home decor magazine!
