Canopy of Curtains

Held to the side with fabric ties, pleated floor-length drapes create a canopy effect in the master bedroom.

Short Shutters

Turn-of-the-century furnishings include painted half shutters across the bottom of the windows and a swag of striped fabric across the top.

Consider Curtain Lining

Line curtains with thick, dark fabric to cut down on glare in naturally bright rooms. Lining also helps protect drapes from dust and color fading.

Unifying Design

Yellow and blue toile covers French doors in the dining room and windows in the kitchen, unifying the two separate spaces.

Lace Garland

Instead of full window treatments, string a lace border along kitchen windows. It will let more light into a dark room and add vintage charm.

Vintage Shutters

Vintage louvered shutters replace curtains or blinds, making the window a focal point in the red-and-white dining room.

Bay Window

Red print fabric hangs artfully in front of this kitchen’s small bay window.

Double Treatment

Sometimes two window treatments are better than one. A swag of red-and-white gingham hangs over white hinged Colonial shutters.

Single Pattern

In this small guest room, a single, blue-and-white pattern covers the walls and a traditional valance, as well as accenting pleated shades.

Thinking about decorating your room in blue and white? This color union is a match mirrored in the sky and clouds, the snowy mountains, the ocean and breaker waves. Perhaps this sympathy with nature is why blue and white decorating schemes have always been popular.

Blue is a color theme, and it sounds as if you have enough of a variety in the different shades of the color. The living room suite is denim blue, but look at the shades in the design on the fabric: mauve, purple, blue. Assuming the curtains are another shade of blue, and that there’s some variety in the blues of the “what-nots,” you’ve got a theme going right here.

Decorating a small home or apartment can be a challenge but the outcome can be a great look combined with style and comfort. The key to a home decorating idea for small spaces is to plan carefully to make the most of the existing space without overwhelming the area.

Here are tips to consider before you get started with your home decorating ideas:

*Don’t make a small room seem smaller by filling it full of “stuff.” This means you might have to put away some of your knick-knacks and restrain yourself from buying additional decorative items. You will find an uncluttered home will provide more comfort and pleasure and make your home decorating idea a reality.

*Make your rooms multi-purpose. A child’s room can be a study or play room which will keep toys and activities in a confined space.

For country style with a formal twist, go for dark wood furniture with simple lines and slim proportions – ideal in a larger room. Barton sofa collection, Marks & Spencer

Choose furniture that’s squashy, sink-inable and comfortable, and pile on cushions for a welcoming feel. Osterley collection, Sanderson

Wing armchairs – the classic must-have in a country style living room – can easily look outdated if it’s covered in fabric that dates easily, so choose pattern over plains in a large print. Southwold express chair, Laura Ashley

If you want your country look to be subtle and modern, choose large prints and limit them to just one or two areas of the room. Match them with modern furniture. Amari collection, Sanderson
