Have you ever wished you could simply click the "Refresh" button to update your room? It's not just you! Continue reading for 6 advice on using accents and accessories to quickly transform any room. Here, we'll break down all the crucial steps to choosing and styling pillows, rugs, lighting, window treatments, wall art, mirrors, and more using what we learned from consulting our designers, polling our stylists, and perusing our showroom archives.

 

Finding the ideal accessories to decorate your home is crucial after choosing the appropriate furniture. These unique 'finds' should be carefully curated over time. No, you can't rush this procedure. Because what comes next—editing and styling—become your distinctive mark and signature and speak to the way you use lighting, rugs, mirrors, and other elements to create the right mood.

  1. Change your pillows, and then add a warm throw! A gorgeous throw, accent pillows, and throw pillows can make a huge difference. Each of the many pillow shapes and sizes offered by Bassett can be customised using hundreds of fabrics in a wide range of hues, patterns, and textures.
  2. Define your space by using an area rug. A good rug can define a space, define a seating area, or even establish the colour scheme for your entire house. A solid or patterned area rug can highlight various design motifs, furniture selections, and wall hues. Rugs encourage us to try out various fresh colour schemes. Ornate patterns and textures add visual interest and combine with other décor components to produce a distinctive and intriguing look. Look for a machine-woven or hand-tufted rug with a medium pile or shag.
  3. Window treatments can help frame your space. Whether they are custom-made or not, window coverings are essential for a variety of reasons, including framing a spectacular view, masking a less-than-pleasant view, diffusing or blocking sunlight, ensuring privacy, enhancing acoustics, or simply providing energy-efficient insulation. Every story begins with the window treatments. They soften the angular rectangular shapes of windows when you want a homely appearance.
  4. Use wall art to showcase your individual taste. The right wall art decor can exude your personality, define the look, highlight a room's natural features, and set the mood. Change your appearance to alter your mood. To add a personal touch to each room in your house, Bassett offers a wide range of options, including tapestries, wall hangings, framed and unframed prints.
  5. Use mirrors to add depth. Every room gains a magical quality from decorative mirrors. And who doesn't adore the way they reflect light throughout your home? Mirrors redefine the physical limits of a space in a refined and versatile way. A carefully chosen floor mirror can add some much-needed personality and sophistication to a space. Mirrors have a way of enlarging small spaces. They are ideal for use in foyers, family rooms, bedrooms, and living rooms. Wall mirrors can add depth and character to small spaces while also dressing them up. A horizontal wall mirror reflecting a single candle or a sparkling chandelier is beneficial in any size dining room.
  6. Use lighting to create an atmosphere. You can use one or several lighting sources to create different moods in a room by layering them. There are many for game-playing with the grandchildren or kids, and one for quiet reading time. Nothing improves your mood and creates a cosy, welcoming environment for family and guests like proper lighting. We can unwind and feel the warmth of the lighting's embrace. You can find a wide variety of lighting at bassettfurniture.com, including lamps, pendants, and more. Our design team selected each piece for its aesthetic appeal, usefulness, and affordability.
