At home, we often need specific accessories to be used for particular purposes. But if they are also beautiful to look at, this is a bonus. Ultimately, combining utility with beauty is the aim of successful design solutions.

So if you want to spice up the decor of a room a little - and without going overboard - why not focus on a few accessories that are kept in plain sight? From cushions to mirrors, here are some targeted interventions that can transform a room.

Tired of the usual ceramic or glass vases? Without spending a fortune, you can decorate your home using the dynamic, colorful and modern shapes of many acrylic models!

If your bedroom seems bland to you, and the dimensions of the room permit it, why not consider framing the bed with a modern canopy with simple lines? You can then also decorate it with light curtains or lights.

Cushions on sofas and armchairs: look for a model with standard dimensions in terms of their padding. Then, buy as many dirrently patterned pillowcases that you can. It will be a way to change the "look" of the sofa or armchair whenever you like, perhaps reflecting the colors of the seasons (or to celebrate important events).

You can also break from tradition by using cushions in unique shapes that are captivating, elegant and beautiful for you. There are an infinite number to choose from in shops or online.

One of the most popular models of mirrors is a round, large, frameless one. This is a very pure form that allows us to decorate with style and without breaking the bank. One way to enhance this mirror, for example, is to add a shelf that cuts across the bottom of the mirror (and which can also hold flower pots, for example).

Are you reluctant to repaint a wall, or can't do it because you are renting? There are adhesive wallpapers on the market that can be easily removed whenever you want. It's the perfect solution to create accent walls, and change or remove them whenever you want.

If you don't mind having to pay attention to its maintenance, a deep-pile carpet is a furnishing accessory that instantly makes any room warmer and more comfortable, especially the bedroom.

What was described above about cushions can also be said to be true for picture frames. Change the mood of a room by simply replacing the photos and pictures whenever you want.

And why not add an artistic touch with clocks, lamps or other furnishing accessories that are copies of famous masterpieces?

Would you like to spice up your home's decor?
