Let’s face it: many of us live in a pretty small space. From shared housing with roommates and friends, to our first apartments in a big city, rent isn’t cheap and often, the space is small. Someday you’ll have that space of your dreams and you won’t have the limitations of a landlord, but for now making the best of your small space is easy with a few key design choices. From living rooms to kitchens, here are some tips for decorating a small space. Enjoy!
- Create a gallery wall to display all your favorite images, trinkets and finds.
- Create a statement with a bold area rug.
- Create the illusion of an entryway with shelving and hooks.
- Mirrors make everything feel bigger (even the tiniest bathroom).
- Hang curtains higher than the windows to create the illusion of taller ceilings.
- Make open storage part of your décor.
- Try adding some transparent or glass furniture to your space – it creates a more open and airy feel.
