If you have a dark coloured room, changing the wall colour to something lighter can truly make a big difference.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invest in furniture that doesn\u2019t overwhelm<\/strong>. Choose furniture that works for the room. Overly large, clunky furniture can make a room appear smaller and more cluttered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Remove the doors where possible<\/strong>. Removing a door can instantly transform a room making it feel more open and modern. Alternatives to traditional doors include sliding doors, screens or panels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consider Ottomans<\/strong>. Not only are ottomans a great alternative to coffee tables, they offer storage and even extra seating if needed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Add mirrors<\/strong>. Hang one large mirror or a few smaller mirrors in a position to receive an abundance of natural light and reflect it back into the room. This decorating tip works wonders in spaces like dining rooms, living rooms or bedrooms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get a Rug.<\/strong> Just because a room is on the small side doesn&#8217;t mean it needs a small rug. Small rugs can make a room seem even smaller. Consider investing in a larger rug that the furniture can sit on.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Go white or light. &nbsp;Light colours can make even a very small space seem a little bigger.
