A room that does not shine with natural light requires creativity and little magic showmanship to illuminate these dreary spaces. I do have a few easy ideas to amp up the brightness factor for rooms without windows. Even if you have just a few openings to the outside world, consider adding these few simple touches to intensify the glow and good feelings in every spot in your home.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11866\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11866\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11866 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt.png\" alt=\"Source: Glubdub\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt-144x144.png 144w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt-107x107.png 107w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/FeaturedImageAlt-120x120.png 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11866\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Glubdub<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Paint It White<\/h4>\n<p>A lavish coat of white paint everywhere and especially on the ceiling, adds an instant airiness to the darkest room. Cream and shades of light gray open up a subtle color palette to use on your furniture, rugs and accent pieces. White simulates light and is always a good choice if you are cautious or wavering about color decisions. Choose wisely the particular shade of white that fits your mood as white varies from chalky to dazzling and varies in hue from pinkish and yellowish through the subtle color spectrum. For dark rooms, select the whitest white to open up your space.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11858\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11858\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11858 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms.png\" alt=\"white-rooms\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms-144x144.png 144w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms-107x107.png 107w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/white-rooms-120x120.png 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11858\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sources: <a href=\"https:\/\/housetohome.media.ipcdigital.co.uk\/96\/00000f7fd\/07ca_orh550w550\/White-living-room1.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">House to Home<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-Gr_5tyUSMtw\/VDZuwzJG6WI\/AAAAAAAABcg\/YmAXtDX3l7s\/s1600\/scandinavian-home-123.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BounceColor<\/a>, &amp; The Paper<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Mirror, Mirror On The Wall<\/h4>\n<p>A large mirror or wall of mirrors deceives the eye and expands a room as any light is captured and reflected and refracted throughout the room.

Hang a wall of drapes behind the headboard to create the illusion of space and light. Select a luxe fabric for a more formal style. A large shade crafted from woven wood materials evokes a more casual and rustic look.\u00a0If drapery seems like overkill, a shabby chic swag of fabric or a pair of distressed, vintage doors hung behind\u00a0the headboard can accomplish a similar illusion. If you are lucky to snag a pair of vintage shutters, this refined look is a classy way to design a blank wall.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11856\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11856\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11856 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery.png\" alt=\"wall-of-drapery\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery.png 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery-144x144.png 144w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery-107x107.png 107w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/wall-of-drapery-120x120.png 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11856\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sources: <a href=\"https:\/\/champagnefrombeer.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/11\/p1000623.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Champagne From Beer<\/a>, Crista Crista, <a href=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/e7\/1f\/8b\/e71f8b90bd2f86f3af4307daa2e0522d.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How to Do That at Home<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/betterremade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/img_1178.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Better Remade<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/havoctoheaven.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/03\/befunky_two-door-headboard-designa-peele.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Havoc to Heaven<\/a>, &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/ferodoor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Headboard-Side-Beautiful-Curtains-with-Sheets.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fero Door<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Don&#8217;t let a scarcity of windows take the joy out of your home.
