Your favorite furniture store at the Lake of the Ozarks, Eldon Furniture, has conducted some research and we have a few suggestions for you in our blog today, check it out!


Start with Lighting 

The first place to start is the access the lighting in your room. There are a few factors that could be contributing to a dark room. 
  • Check the wattage on the bulbs you are using. You may have a dim light bulb installed and not realize it.
  • Switch from incandescent to LED bulbs. 
  • It is easy to overlook dusting. You may need to dust your bulbs and your glass light fixtures. 

A Fresh Coat of Paint Goes a Long Way! 

If it's been a while since your home has got a fresh coat of paint, it may be time to do so. Consider choosing light colors because the light will bounce off the walls and help brighten your space. White is going to be your best option but as long as you go with light shades, a fresh coat of paint will brighten any room immediately. 

Add a New Rug 

Your flooring can play a part in darkening your room. Especially if you have dark flooring. Break up some of the darkness with a bright colored rug. Patterns and fun designs are a great way to not only add a pop of color but also brighten up your room. The contrast between the rug and the floor will be a great addition to the dining room or living room. Eldon Furniture has a great selection of rugs at the Lake of the Ozarks and our team of designers can help you choose the perfect rug to brighten up your space.


Integrate Light Colored Furniture 

A great way to brighten up any room is the addition of light colored furniture. Creams, whites, and light greys work great to introduce more light. Make a statement with a light colored sectional or add white coffee tables. Other furniture pieces to consider include bookcases, dining room tables, and end tables.
