Refresh matching vintage or antique pieces by reupholstering in modern fabrics. It will still feel lived in but look fresher and newer.

Try an elegant, timeless print on the walls or curtains of a guest bedroom or bathroom, like a toile print. It adds a coziness and a touch of whimsy.

Step 4: Choose strong fabrics 床品，桌布，沙发套选择纯色或是带点图案的粗布料，营造温馨的气氛。
Choose a strong fabric for the main furniture pieces and design the rest of the room around it. Bold colors or graphic prints instantly add a homey feel. Mix textures to add warmth and interest.

Step 5: Add quirky accents 摆放一些古怪抽象的艺术品。
Add quirky accents, such as homemade drawings, paintings, sculpture, or an odd lighting fixture. Use your own special touch to make a unique impression.

Plants and flowers add an earthy touch to any home.

Step 6: Warm up a room 垂地窗帘、大靠枕、柔软的地毯都可以增加小家的温暖气氛。
Warm up any room with long curtains, big pillows or cushions, a plush area rug, and comfortable furniture to make everyone feel right at home.
