Groupings make stronger presentations than single items. Group like metals, china and pictures. Use plants, either real or silk, or a sculpture on a pedestal to fill a bare corner. Keep the scale in harmony with the room and furniture sizes. The quantity of accessories used also depends on the mood and style.
Victorian settings thrive on clutter.
Asian or contemporary settings generally call for a more streamlined look. Look at each area and ask what you are trying to achieve - a dash of color, an element of softness, something to fill a bare spot, something to add visual weight. Start with larger objects. Stand back and observe where the holes are and then fill in with smaller objects. Let Man-U Imports help you 'dress up' your home with our array of lovely and practical accessories.
