While it's never been simpler to plan your DIY design using virtual home decorating tools, you can still get valuable room decorating ideas from the experts. Your decor can make or break a first impression and affect how you feel in your own home. To help inspire you, here are some decorating tips and tricks from the pros:
Try a dramatic light fixture
It's no secret, lighting can thoroughly change the aesthetics of a room. However, one tip from designers is to take it a step further by using a dramatic light fixture somewhere in your home. You could achieve this using an artistic floor lamp in the living room or a statement chandelier over the dining room table.
Decorate with large plants
Large indoor plants have always been included in room decorator ideas. Not only do plants bring life to a space, they can make a stunning design statement. If you want to avoid caring for live plants, you can also use artificial alternatives. With some modern options, you can barely tell the difference.
Invest in art
Investing in at least one quality art piece will not only enhance the room it's in, but provide you with valuable inspiration and guidance for things like color schemes and texture in your decor. Room decorators recommend splurging on either one large piece or several small pieces, mounted or framed.
Consider wallpaper
Wallpaper might seem intimidating, but modern advancements have made it easier than ever to apply and take down. You can even use virtual interior design programs to preview wallpaper in a given room. By using virtual and augmented reality apps, you can make better decisions about what wallpaper will work best in your space. Don't forget, you can use wallpaper for accent walls and alcoves instead of entire rooms as well.

Hannah Sosinski
I started my career in the real estate industry at the age of sixteen and instantly fell in love.
I worked alongside one of the top producing agents in the country as their administrative assistant for nearly nine years before I took the leap to begin my own journey in the real estate industry.
Working alongside an agent who sells over three hundred houses a year educated me strongly on the Pittsburgh and greater Pittsburgh housing market. While working alongside this agent, I was lucky enough to be involved in several different types of real estate transactions and learned to properly determine home values, many aspects of negotiations and have learned how to close challenging deals while also handling a large amount of deals at the same time.
I have also spent the past seven years working as a property manager throughout Allegheny, Washington and Fayette County. I have managed everything from Section 8 to Luxury units.
Exploring the options of the real estate industry can be overwhelming. While working with me you’re able to sit back and relax as I have worked with many investors, home sellers and buyers and can help guide through the sale or purchase of your home and make it as easy on you as possible.
Whether you’re a first time home owner, downsizing, sizing up, looking to make your first/second or third investment, selling your home, etc. I can use my years of education to help guide you through the purchase or sale of the largest investment of your life.
I look forward to chatting about real estate with you!
