Declutter
How many tables does one room need? Maybe you’re sick of dusting all those vases and figurines. Perhaps one sofa is enough, since no one ever uses the matching love seat.
Removing a few items — or a lot of them — makes a room feel larger. Paring down the visual bombardment also can make a space seem more peaceful.
On the fence about an item? Store it in the garage for a week. If you still feel you can live without it, donate it.
