Change to a room like pasting simple wallpaper, paint a wall or changing the drapes could bring in so much difference to the way a room looks that it is simply amazing. Whether you stay in suburbs or the city, creating your own warm space is something all of us wish for. Decorating seems to be a very difficult task and many of us do not understand how to be creative or how simple changes could make such a vast difference. But there are no rulebooks to follow; all you need to do is check in few minute details and voila, you create the dream home you always wanted. Here are a few very unique ways to ignite your home.

1.Furniture should always be ideal and matching with the rest of the interiors. The latest trend of using short pieces has been going on; you can bring in one like this tufted couch and keep the whole floor cosy and comfortable. You could also use colourful area rugs to redefine each area individually.
