**Design Retailer HINTS**

Over-sized wall decor elements are "huge, " and they're also best sellers!  As the average size of homes have increased, so have the size of the design elements that go into them.  Look for larger paintings, tapestries, and mirrors.  These are necessary to balance the room and fill the background. 

Also, layers of light are important additions to any comfortable, well designed enviroment.  Well placed scones & mirrors brighten the perimeter and add visual texture to walls and rooms.
