Declutter
Having all your belongings cluttering up each room, or having windowsills and mantles full of knick-knacks doesn’t scream expensive or chic. It screams that your furniture came from your great aunt’s house.
After sensibly going through your things and giving away what you no longer need, look for baskets or bins to help you sort all the odds and ends that you can never find a place for. Match these to the rest of your decor and they become a statement piece of furniture rather than just utilitarian.
