Ideas to steal 1 2 3 4 5 HANG PLANTS from the bathroom ceiling. The steam sustains them and the greenery creates a feeling of lushness. INSTALL floating shelves next to the bed instead of bulky bedside tables that take up valuable floor space. WOODEN FLOORS are warm and practical, and can be painted a lighter colour to update and open up a room. FILL open shelving in the kitchen with stacks of colourcoordinated cups and plates to transform a space-saving feature into a style statement. BOLD light fixtures can be used in conjunction with dimmable recessed lighting to create contrast and interest.
