Select Correctly Sized Throw Pillows
Throw pillows that are sized correctly can elevate your sofa. Selecting throw pillows between 22 and 24 inches will fill the seating space. Custom pillows in fabrics you love will also end your hunt for the elusive, perfect throw pillow.
Mix Furniture Styles
A room with a combination of antiques, heirloom pieces, new furniture and some contemporary touches will make the space feel collected, layered and exciting. It will prevent the area from feeling like a catalog spread and instead make it feel intentionally designed.
Update Builder-Grade Accents
If your home is relatively new construction, there may be some builder-grade finishes throughout the home. Update the light fixtures with new fixtures that are either vintage or have interesting finishes and textures. Also, update any cabinet hardware that isn’t inspiring. Select hardware that feels like jewelry to you. Another update is to replace anything brushed nickel, which is often a builder-grade favorite selection, with timeless finishes that have a more luxe feel, such as polished nickel or antique brass.
Updating the lampshades that come with your light fixtures is another easy update. Replacing the standard white linen lamp shades for chandelier shades with options in a unique pattern or material can drastically impact a space.
Declutter, Then Fill the Space With Fresh Flowers
This may be the easiest way to make your home feel more luxurious. Remove surface clutter, pare down the accessories and edit all surfaces, making the space feel more spacious, elevated and classic. Once you declutter the room thoroughly, fill it with fresh flowers to add simple sophistication.
