Remember that decorating with fabric can be very expensive. Plan wisely and avoid quick decisions when purchasing new furniture coverings. It is a new century and decorating rules are changing. Many homes are going for a more eclectic look. Many types of furniture can be mixed within one room, and still maintain an overall look of continuity.
Pillows are a welcome addition to any couch or love seat, adding comfort as well as beauty.
At the sides of sofas and chairs, place a stack of books, a basket, or some personal memento. This will create another eye-catching point of interest. Each new interest point makes the room unique. If the curtains are simple, pinched-pleat draperies, consider adding a top treatment. For a longer, more elegant look, move your top treatment a few inches above the window but no higher than eighteen inches.
