By Jere Castrellon


If you're feeling the need to do some decorating or rearranging of your home, you should do so. Without spending too much money, or getting too stressed, simply check one thing to work on before moving on to the next. As you continue, you will feel better as you see that your home is starting to improve and that doing all of this was not as difficult as it first seemed.

Freeing up space within your home is one of the easiest ways to make it look larger and better inside. All of us are well aware of how clutter can stack up in our homes affecting the view of certain things in each room. Finding storage is a great idea for removing excess items. An attractive storage box or trunk can add to the decor of a room and help you clear away some messy and random items. If you're not using a lot of the items, you can donate them to the right charities as well. Furniture that is too large, such as a sectional sofa, can also be exchanged for something smaller, like loveseats, to free up space within your home.

Keep in mind that mirrors are not just for the sake of vanity - they are also great for decorating. They are so versatile that there are few things, from a decorating point of view, they can't be used for.

Use the ancient Chinese art of Feng Shui for more positive energy in your home. This style of decorating is all about balance but you don't have to believe the spiritual nature of Feng Shui to enjoy the benefits of some of its practical applications. Avoiding clutter is a great idea in almost any home - especially near the door.

Water inside the home (as part of an aquarium or fountain) is also a very Feng Shui touch to add. It's really easy to enhance the look of a room by filling an aquarium with brightly colored fish. There are many principles of feng shui that are worth looking into if you're interested in finding out more.

Many people pay thousands of dollars to redecorate, and others stay on a tight budget. It all depends on how you approach it and how willing you are to consider different possibilities. By putting your mind in gear, and doing the work, your home decorating project can go smoothly and be done in no time at all.
