Use natural light that enters the room as your focus for nothing beats natural light from the sun to bring about the true character of colors. Accent pieces of furniture allow highlights to break up the mood of a neutral color scheme. Reverse coloring as we have discussed, is a way of presenting furniture that has the colors on the walls with solid ones for the furniture. Play around and you’d be amazed of the possible combinations that can be seen form such changes to the same space, giving it a totally new look. Curtains, bed spreads and table spread can all make small yet noticeable changes to a space that is sure to keep it interesting and inviting to all who use it.

One of the best ways to change the appeal of a room is with texture, namely in fabrics. Textured fabrics that have prominent traits allows light to play around them giving a smoother look as opposed to solid fabrics. Complement wicker furniture with textured fabrics of the same shade or with neutrally colored ones to complement each other. Bright bold colors that are textured give more depth and character to any surface so try different combinations to get the best options. When going to a fabric store, ask for their swatches (cloth samples) and ask for some if possible so you could take them home and test them out.
