Tips for decorating a small room!

So idk if you can tell from the pictures but my room is pretty small. But through this process of decorating, I came up with a few tips to help all my peeps out there who also have a small space they want to spice up a little!

1. ULILIZE THE WALL SPACE! – Get shelves that not only are decorative and visual pleasing but will also help you store things!
2. Cubby boxes are key! – I noticed that a small room can look pretty cluttered sometimes but if you organize your things and sort them into cubby boxes and put them on a shelf like I did, It enhances the room by adding color and painting the sense of simplicity by hiding all your things! Lol!
3. Space out your furniture – When laying out the furniture in your room, I feel its better to keep space in between your furniture. Don’t feel the need to utilize every single floor space because that will make your room feel even smaller. So with that being said, keep the amount of furniture to a minimum!
4. Keep your color pallet light and bright! – Natural lighting in a room is everything and by keeping your walls a lighter color, It will emphasize the natural light and will already help your room seem bigger. I also kept my bedding and curtains a neutral color so that it will be easier to change up the decor for the holidays! AGH I CAN’T WAIT FOR CHIRSTMAS!!! Lol
5. Add horizontal stripes – If you saw, my rug has little pom pom’s in horizontal lines! Very subtle detail, however, I fell like it aded an extra sort of length or dimension to my room! Like I said, very subtle, but I felt like it helped!
