2. Maximize Vertical Space

In small homes, floor space is limited, so look upward. Vertical decorating strategies allow you to make use of walls in ways that are both functional and stylish.

Install floating shelves to display books, plants, and décor without taking up precious floor area. Consider tall shelving units that draw the eye upward and make the ceiling appear higher. Pegboards or wall hooks can hold kitchen utensils, bags, hats, or even craft supplies in a decorative way.

If you are decorating a bedroom, a tall headboard can add elegance and height, while wall-mounted lamps free up space on bedside tables. Remember, in small spaces, the walls are your best friends.
