Grand Rapids, Mich. (WOTV) - Do you have a room that seems lifeless? Texture can bring new life to your room!

1. Let opposites attract- pair smooth textures with rough, sleek and nubby, coarse and fine,


2.Textures can steer a room toward the feeling you want. Consider soft, fine fabrics for a feminine mood. Rustic metals and woods for more of a masculine feel. Sleek and shiny surfaces for a modern attitude and a mix for an eclectic appeal.


3. Repeat the feeling- textures need some repetition- like wicker baskets and on a piece of furniture or leather on a sectional with stacks of leather bound books.
