Need a clever decorating idea for the 4th of July?



We have moved down the street

Need a Clever Decorating Idea for the 4th of July?
The Fourth of July is just around the corner so why not try  out one of  these quick and easy decorating ideas to show your patriotic party sense.

1. Make large bouquets of red, white, and blue balloons. Tie them together with ribbon streamers.

2. Visit Distinctively Home and pick up our patriotic "God Bless America" hanging sign.   

3. Tie red striped fabric around a chair. Tie blue fabric in a bow around red striped fabric for accent on the back of the chair. 

4. Red, white, and blue sprinkles are not just for ice cream. Pour a layer of each color in a clear glass vase then place a candle inside for patriotic lighting. 

5. Cover various size tin cans with red, white, and blue gift wrap or scrapbook paper.  Place flowers, food, or utensils in them for a festive buffet table.

A large mirror makes a room look larger because it creates an illusion of depth. It tricks the eye into thinking there is more space than there really is. The optical illusion occurs as the mirror reflects light and color across the room. Our eyes perceive the bouncing reflections as increased volume, making the room look bigger.

Physics can explain why a large mirror makes a room look larger. According to the law of reflection, an angle approaching a mirror will equal the angle that it reflects. Scientifically put, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. A larger mirror has more surface area to allow for more angles of incidence. With more angles of incidence, there will be more angles of reflection---the mirror will reflect whatever amount that approaches it, so a larger mirror will reflect a bigger amount and make a room look larger

At Distinctively Home Interiors we have a wide variety of mirrors to choose from!  Pay us a visit and start creating space.
