Tips, Tricks & Tools

1. ‘Use an expensive, statement fabric on the front of cushions, and a more cost-effective plain fabric on the back – it’s rarely seen.’
2. ‘Add feature wallpaper to the back of a bookcase and position LED strip lighting at the back of the shelf. This creates an interesting focal point in the room.’
3. ‘Include artificial floral and foliage displays on a coffee or dining table. They are very long lasting and require little to no maintenance.’
4. ‘Choose bold patterned wallpapers for small spaces such as the downstairs WC. This is a great space to show off to your guests, and probably the most visited room.’
5. ‘Add trims to soft furnishings to tie in colour and add detailing to a design. Fringing is a soft, tactile option, and very on trend.’
