The living room is the area of the house in which you receive guests. Therefore it is very important that the living room has a welcoming and cozy setting which will make your guests feel as if at home. To achieve this atmosphere you must accessorize your living room properly. If you don’t know how to do that keep reading because we have written down some very helpful tips. 
Before you begin accessorizing you must take into consideration the design of your living room. For example if your living room has a vintage outlook then you must compliment with similar details. 
One of the most important features in the living room is the windows covers. When you are choosing the window features make sure that they will match the overall appearance of the room. Also make sure that the colors of the curtains or blinds match the wall colors of the room. If you decide to go with curtains know that they will require much more maintenance than blinds but they will also create a more cozy feeling in the room. On the other hand blinds are not so imposing as an accessory so if you don’t wish to add a strong accent you could very well choose them instead. 
Next step; focus on the floor. The best way to create a welcoming and cozy atmosphere is by placing a carpet or rug in the living room. However carpets and rugs require frequent cleaning as they tend to accumulate dirt build-ups. If you don’t have the time to clean regularly hire carpet cleaning Melbourne services to clean for you. To find the best cleaners in the area read the carpet cleaning Melbourne section in the newspapers. 
To boost the overall ambience of the room install the right lighting fixtures in the area. The best option is to place a main pendant on the ceiling and to compliment it with a couple of wall light fixtures.
