The Bedroom
Your bedroom is all about creating a sanctuary for sleep. It’s important to create the right atmosphere, so the easiest place to start is with your bedside lighting. This needn't be a total overhaul - try swapping out the shades on your existing bedside table lamps for a boost of colour or to cast softer, more ambient light, or even downgrading the wattage of your bulb. Of course, luxurious bedding is essential when mastering the art of dressing a bed you won’t want to get out of. With soft-to-the-touch sheets, cloud-like quilts and eye-catching designs, this is the easiest way to ease bedroom boredom. If you’re really looking to create impact, wallpaper can bring a tired space to life. Match your walls to your bedding, or paint clash to the max, Liberty-style.

The Living Room
Your living is a space for both relaxing and entertaining, the best way to achieve this is to mix personality with comfort at all levels, from dressing your sofa with cushions and throws to a switch up in your coffee table styling.

The Kitchen
If you’re looking to add a little spirit to your kitchen without changing the cabinets, flooring or backsplash, there’s plenty you can do with accents. A rug is a low-risk way to bring in texture to an otherwise practical space, while warmth can also be introduced by adding cushions to seating or even a simple change of tea towels can make a big impact. Create instant storage and endless decor opportunities with open shelving, switching out plain jars and making a display of your best mugs and glassware. The addition of food-centric artwork will bring joy to your walls and provide dinner party talking points.

The Bathroom
How can you beautify a bathroom without a full remodel? It’s an age-old dilemma, but luckily a problem easily solved with the addition of a few well placed accessories - and Liberty towels of course. For instance, using trinket pots to hide away cotton pads and upgrading your toothbrush pot to a murano glass tumbler will make a stylish feature out of a functional item. If your vanity space is minimal, bathroom shelving works wonders for both extra storage and decor - providing a space for candles and diffusers that will help set the scene for relaxation. Refresh your overall look with new towels and add hooks to hang a fluffy robe to amplify the bathroom’s style stakes.
