A home should be a place you’ll look forward to being in after a hard day’s work. It should be cozy for both the owners and the visitors. But it’s a challenge for some homes with large spaces to make theirs inviting. Here are three ways to make a large home feel homey:

1. Strategically place tall potted plants
If your home has a tall ceiling, fill it with potted trees. As long as your room gets enough light to support the plant’s needs, you really can’t go wrong with adding a massive houseplant.
2. Paint two-tone walls
While tall potted plants are great for drawing the eye up, emphasizing tall ceilings, sometimes we want the opposite effect. Painting color on your walls only part of the way up creates a cozier feeling, tricking the eye into thinking the walls are shorter than they are.
3. Go for oversized ottomans
One of the most challenging aspects of a large living room is making an enormous seating arrangement feel cozy. It can feel a bit empty if there’s too much distance between the coffee table and the sofa. Choosing a big upholstered ottoman will close that gap and add softness at the same time.
