Accessorizing your home got you down? Keep it simple and you're sure not to miss a beat.
Go with opposite shapes
If your table is round, put something angular on it. A rectangular tray or a square dish on a round table is interesting and creates contrast.
Stick to odd numbers
This works every time: on a side table, place 3 items. Here's one classic solution: a vase, some stacked books and a picture frame with someone you love.
Bring in the outside
Greenery or your favorite flowers add some life and lighten your space. Don’t have a green thumb? Permanent botanicals are not your grandma's silk flowers. They can look so real, you have to touch them to know the difference.
Look to materials
If you have a glass table, put a glass bowl might get lost in the shuffle. A great place to balance materials is with accessories. You can fill in any missing gaps. See if you can get wood, metal, glass and ceramic in the room. Too much of one material, and it wont feel balanced.
