Clever Interior Decorator Ideas For Your Home

By Eamon Hartnett


Being an Interior Decorator is unnecessary if you are thinking about redecorating your house. You could go the professional route and hire someone to do it for you. Alternatively, you could do it yourself. Simply browse the Internet and do research or buy one of the many home decor magazines available. The vast majority of people battle with space in their homes, they seem to not have enough. The reality is that you are probably inundated with clutter. The first step would be to remove everything in your home that you do not use or is of no value to you anymore. This will free up an incredible amount of space in your home.

Adding a rod in a closet will result in more hanging space. The two rods should be different heights. This will mean that dresses and longer items can be hung on one rod and shorter items on the other. Shelves can often be moved up or down a notch. Often times shelves are far apart, which means that there are large gaps between the shelves. You should be able to add a shelf in between or move them to better manage the way things are packed. Storage units are great to help save space.

Another space saving tool are the walls in the house. This applies particularly to your kitchen. Hang your pots and pans on hooks on the wall in the kitchen. This frees up a wealth of space in your cupboards. Shelves on the wall can also be used to store items. Shelves in the corner will be a good place for items like photos and knick-knacks. The other shelves can be for items for which you need quick access.

It is critical that your office is tidy at all times. This is because this is where your productivity happens. Do not have a situation where you spend more time looking for paperwork than actually working on it. There are many storage solutions that you can get at office supply and stationery stores. These include caddies, baskets and portable file boxes.

If you have many things that you love, you may create clutter when you display or use them all simultaneously. These things include linens, curtains, ornaments and more. Instead, use some of it and pack the rest away. Then, rotate it every month or two, or every season. That way, your things last longer and your house is always fresh and new.

With these simple ideas, you would seem like a professional Interior Decorator to your friends. Of course, if you do not enjoy doing these things yourself, you may hire a professional to do it for you.
