Accessorise with Style

They say it's the little things and the finishing touches that matter and that's certainly true within the world of interior design. Having a room without accessories is like having toast without butter! It will be bland, boring and barely palatable. When choosing accessories it's more than just gathering a few pieces together and hoping they add a little flair to a room, this approach rarely, if ever, works.

Selecting the right accessories can make or break the look of a room. You can be adventurous as you like just so long as you have a common theme and this doesn’t mean you have to have seashells in the bathroom. Look for accessories that bring interest and a different texture into the room. Look for pieces that will add height where it's needed and unless you're going for the over-crowded look deliberately try to avoid the temptation of adding too many pieces. Remember that items should be displayed in odd numbers, 3 and 5 are good for average sized rooms.

I love this intriguing plant, when I first saw it I thought it was a whimsical way to display knitting needles!
