As you move into your new home from Hartz Homes, here are a few decorating tips to help you create the perfect space for your family.  A little color, a little texture, and a bit of personality can make a world of difference in your home. Here are some great ideas to create some wonderful spaces without a lot of hassle…or cost.

Focus on Color

There’s something about a splash of bold color that makes a room feel like it’s right out of a magazine spread. Rooms painted with a neutral color are simple and tasteful, but adding pops of yellow, blue or purple will take them to the next level. From your bathroom to your living room, a splash of color is an easy addition to every room in your house, and one that will instantly give it pizzazz.

Use mirrors

If you want to make a room look bigger, here’s a quick solution. Decorating with mirrors is an easy, beautiful way to make any room feel larger, lighter and more open. Place a large mirror either directly across or diagonal from your window so that it can reflect the light (both natural and artificial, if you’re low on windows) and allow the room to look larger.

Add Accessories to Every Room

One of the easiest ways to add beauty to your home is to experiment with accessories and design-forward objects. When decorating with accessories, consider filling empty space in purposeful ways—pick objects you love and that bring you joy.

Sprinkle in Greenery

Ask any interior designer, and they’ll tell you that one of the easiest ways to beautify a room is to add greenery or florals. Fill the empty nooks and crannies in your home with indoor trees, seasonal bouquets or some wallet-friendly greenery to give every room a designer’s touch.

Embrace Natural Light

If you’ve got it, flaunt it. Natural light is desirable for a reason; it makes every room feel calming and open and makes things a lot simpler for your overall design scheme. Whether you’re lucky enough to have an abundance of natural light or you have to work with less-than-ideal exposures, never neglect your windows. Finding the right curtains or shades for your room can transform the look and feel instantly.

Experiment with mixing and matching styles

Often room decor we love have one thing in common: creativity. Anyone can fill a house with showroom furniture, but for a truly gorgeous space, it’s important to let your imagination take the lead.

Add Texture

From area rugs to throw pillows to cozy blankets, textiles help break a room up and add visual interest (plus, who doesn’t love the feel of a super-soft rug underfoot?).

Reduce clutter

Kitchen counters that are free of unnecessary clutter, can appear larger and more inviting. In every room in your house, finding ways to hide or get rid of unnecessary things is one of the best ways to help create a sense of beauty in your space.
