Ready to give your home’s appearance a boost? There are many ways to accentuate the charms your home already possesses. If you’re not sure where to begin your DIY home improvement projects, consider updating your home’s lighting:
Adding beautiful lighting can set the tone of your space. A great place to start is by examining the three types of lighting: Ambient, task and accent lighting. Ambient lighting illuminates an entire room, like an overhead lamp or chandelier.
Task lighting shines in an area meant for a specific purpose, like a desk or reading lamp. Accent lighting brings attention to certain interest points, like spotlights on houseplants or artwork. Combining these different lighting types can help significantly in creating the perfect mood for your space.
Think of crown molding as a beautiful necklace for your space. It’s affordable and can give an elegant aesthetic to walls and doors. This project can also be done in just a few hours, depending on how many places you would like to add the crown molding to.
