Put Lamps Everywhere
Brighten your life
Many designers rely on the way lights are placed to give a room an ambiance. Lamp specialty stores are a great place to find interesting lighting for every room, and all kinds of decorating styles. Choose a funky ceiling lamp and set off a corner of the room with shadows playing with the metal or wood from the fixtures. Or opt for up-light cans to bring dramatic focus to artwork, architecture or wall color.
Touch of Class
The eyes of your house
While you are working on your modern decor makeover, do not neglect your windows. They are almost like the eyes of the house and deserve your attention just like your furniture. Touch of Class has a number of window treatments with sleek, modern lines as well as hardware. Try a glass finial with bubbles suspended inside to hang your curtains. The little touches are what often make any decor.
125 West
Graphic Area Rugs
If you are on a budget or just do not want to go out and look for floor coverings, a tedious process in and of itself, try something different. 125 West features contemporary, graphic area rugs. Choose edgy combinations of color, texture and pattern to make a statement with your floor coverings.
Bathroom Fixture Stores
Art in your bathroom!
Recently I went into a public building and was stunned when I discovered the artistic wash basin. It looked more like a glass bowl than a sink. With that said, modern decor makeovers do not have to consist of stainless steel or even porcelain. Try a vessel sink created by an artist.
And don’t forget to pair your new basin with an equally off-beat faucet set. Today’s fixtures go way beyond the chrome or brass boring of days gone by, so spend some time browsing the options before you buy.
Amish Outlet Store
Classic craftsmanship, simple lines
One of the hallmarks of modern furniture design is the use of clean, uncluttered lines. Ironically, that’s also one of the traits of traditional Amish furniture. They don’t add unnecessary, fancy trim or annoying do-dads. It’s all about quality, simple functionality and the intrinsic beauty that comes with it.
The quality wood furnishings from the Amish Outlet Store will work perfectly with bold geometric rugs, intense wall colors and modern art. Who knew such a traditional method of building furniture could take your home to new, modern heights?
