Some kind of change regarding what you see has always been associated with lifting your mood. Whether it is a spring clean, a new outfit or even moving house. Changing what you look at can boost your mood positively and it does not have to be costly.
Statement pieces such as furnishings, paintings and other home accessories do lose the interest that they originally had. Once the brain registers that these are stagnant pieces that are seen constantly in the same place it ceases to register them, to the point that the beauty can be forgotten.
Here are a few suggestions to kick start the aesthetic eye.
1. Move a few pieces about. Whether it is moving the sofa across the room or swapping the paintings from the dining room /hall to the living room. The moving the sofa bit can be difficult as the character Joey from Friends once said" you don't have a tv,what's all your furniture pointing to"
2. Add a different accessory . A new rug, throw or cushions on the sofa or a new lamp.
3. One popular idea is to have 2 or 4 different sets of paintings. Like a good wardrobe having summer/winter sets you can have paintings that you would hang during the spring/summer and paintings that you would hang in the autumn/winter. The good point to this is that once you have purchased your paintings and have put half of them away ,whenever you unpack the paintings in future years it will feel as if you have new pieces everytime.
