We all have those spots around our home that we never really get around to decorating because they are too small or so oddly configured that we just don’t know what to do with them. Here are some tips and solutions for every small corner of your house that will help you to save space and to make every tiny spot cozier and cooler.

  1. In front of tall windows: add some green houseplants. Also, select furniture that won’t obstruct the natural light coming through, such as a bench with skinny legs, or make a reading nook full of abundant natural light by adding an upholstered chair with a narrow profile.
