How To Choose The Right Accessories

Accessories transform a nicely decorated room into a perfect

, finished space. But for many homeowners, this is a stressful experience because they have a hard time choosing the right ones. Consequently, rooms are often left unfinished.

But no more! It's time to put the excitement back into accessorizing! You will be able to choose the right accessories with ease if you follow this simple checklist.

Home Accessory Checklist:

When you see an accessory that you are considering for your room, make sure it meets these guidelines:

* Does it have the right mood?

In order for an accessory to "work" in a space, it needs to be in harmony with the mood of the room. That means that it evokes the same feelings. Is your room romantic? sleek? cozy? Make sure the accessory feels that way, too.

* Is it the right scale?

If you are looking for a piece to display on a large, high shelf, don't choose something that is too small. It will just feel lost and incomplete. And a very large piece will look ridiculous in a room of small, delicate ornaments. Make sure that the accessory you choose harmonizes with the scale of the furniture that it will be relating to.

* Is the color right?

Does the color (or colors) of the accessory work in your room? Of course, it doesn't have to match exactly, but make sure it blends nicely.

NOTE: Another option is to choose an accessory with a color that stands out. This can make a dramatic statement. Make sure, however, that this "drama" fits the mood of your room!

* Do you love it?

This may seem obvious, but many homeowners get caught up in making sure that all of their decorating "works" and forget to make sure that they really love everything that is going in their home. Even if the accessory fits all the other criteria, if you don't love it, put it back.
