Accessorising a room doesn’t have to lead to clutter, according to an expert.
Susie Coelho, a decorating guru, told iVillage.com that using accessories without creating clutter is "a common decorating problem" but she said there were solutions.
In a room with blinds, a lot of objects can be incorporated without the space being overpowered, provided there is consistency in the theme, said Ms Coelho.
Those wanting to display collectibles should have sufficient shelf and cabinet space to display them, while glass-fronted cabinets are ideal for storing accessories without them being in the way.
She said the beauty of accessories is that they are often small and can easily be rearranged, so homeowners are advised to try a few different looks, safe in the knowledge they can always change it around.
According to an article on HomeInteriorDecorating.co.uk, stylish storage solutions are the answer to the problem of clutter.
