Congratulations on your first apartment! To help you navigate this world, we’re sharing some of our favorite decorating tips. Why, you ask, are we sharing these practical decoration tips? We understand how overwhelming this process can be and also understand how easy it can be to go ham furnishing an empty apartment. Either way, we’ve got your back with these tips:

Size Matters

When looking for furniture for your apartment, keep size at the forefront of your mind. While furniture can make a world of difference when it comes to decoration, anything too  big will not only take away from the ambiance of your apartment but can also make it feel crowded—this is particularly true for smaller spaces. To avoid this, measure everything carefully or look for furniture that is made specifically for apartments!

Be Patient

It’s so easy to go overboard when furnishing your first apartment. After all, it’s an exciting process and who wants to sit in an empty apartment? We encourage you to take as much time as you need to slowly collect nonessential furnishings so that you can enjoy the process of creating and honing your unique style.
