Decorating Tip For You!!
I am working with a client that has an awkward space in her entry and formal dining room. Her house has cathedral ceilings which created a large ledge above the coat closet. My solution to address it on a budget is to use many large items mixed with a few small items to create dimension with multiple levels.
First for the backdrop, we are using a tapestry found on overstock.com, the large size and intricate pattern fills up the large blank wall providing color, texture, and noise absorption.

Second, we used two large floor vases, one slightly smaller than the other to create a layered effect. These type of vase are readily available at Pier 1 Imports, however can be found at even deeper discounts through antique malls, on-line classifieds, and estate sales.
Third, the large antique trunk and small garden seat or round table are a must to provide another level surface to add a few small items. The trunk and the table can also be found at through antique malls, on-line classifieds, and estate sales.
One other dimension I wanted to add is soft lighting, we achieved this through adding battery operated candles in a floor standing candle sconce and small hurricane.
Lastly, I added greenery and foliage to the space to soften it up and give it more texture and color, so a few floral stems, branches, and green fern do the trick!
