5. Essential oils
Have you ever walked into a space infused with an unforgettably distinct, sweet smell? The secret most likely lies in infusing an aromatic essential oil over a burner.

Infuse a few diluted drops over an oil diffuser or burner to create a fresh feel to or eliminate unpleasant odours from just about any space. Shop it here.

Wall-to-wall carpeting is a pain to maintain. If you want to give your humble abode some character, go for an Afghan rug like this one.

Beside, hand-loomed rugs are timeless classics that, alone, instantly transform the look of a main entrance, hallway or any other living space you fancy. If you really want to get creative, hand this piece of art on the wall of your hallway – it’s a definite showstopper which, might we add, will last you a lifetime. Grab yours here.
