Decorating with fabric can be very expensive, and until you firmly decide on the print, color and texture, you can use sheets. You can puddle the sheets or maybe use two at angles to each other. Or tie knots in them to give them an interesting and unusual look. You can mix many types of furniture within one room, and still maintain an overall look of continuity. Try a homemade afghan, a Mexican cotton weave, a chenille throw, or a sale rack goodie to achieve a soft, warm, cozy feel.
Pillows are a welcome addition to any couch or love seat, adding comfort as well as beauty.
At the sides of your sofas and chairs you can 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 uniquely yours. If you plan to use existing draperies or curtains in your decorating, there are a few things you can do to enhance them. If the curtains are simple, pinched-pleat draperies, you might add a top treatment.
