If you’re like most homeowners then you probably have one corner in your house that you can’t quite figure out how to best use. Often this frustrating corner is somewhere in your living room. It probably taunts you as you try to relax and watch Netflix, always being a constant nag in your peripheral. If you want to finally learn the best way to occupy that corner, then keep reading!
The first ideas are the most basic and this advice applies for almost any home that needs something to fill a little extra space. When in doubt, add art or plants! This is often the only thing you need to do to take your mind off the corner. Plants add a nice splash of life and seem right at home when out of the way. Art can be used in unexpected ways – like being hung diagonally across the corner – to really make the space special.
If you want to have a little more fun with your corner while also making it more functional, then you should consider installing a small bar or even installing a hammock (space permitting). A small, satellite bar can be perfect for making the space seem more austere while also putting your favorite spirit within reach. A hammock can work surprisingly well if it’s the right style for your home. Plus, every home should have a hammock somewhere!
Lamps, tables, and seating are also incredibly practical solutions. Even if no one sits in the corner chair, it can be called into action when a surplus of guests arrive at your house. A lamp can be a beautiful piece of decor while also helping the look of the room at night. And you can’t go wrong with a table! There are never enough places for setting down the mail anyway.
That corner can certainly be frustrating, but there are so many great ways to make it useful or at least less annoying. Take a look at the full list in the article below and find the best solution for your home!
