► LIVING ROOM

Your living room often sets the mood for your house and it can also be used to make a statement. The wall above a sofa is often a great spot for panoramic or oversized art or several smaller pieces grouped together. Show off your style and show your guests what you're all about with the presence of art in your living room.

► DINING ROOM

The dining room is a perfect spot for a pair or grouping of pictures. Whether you decide to go dramatic or subtle with your dining room art choices, make sure you have an eye-pleasing balance of color, shape and scale.

► KITCHEN

Everyone ends up in your kitchen, so create a fun, inviting feel with colorful artwork. Great kitchen themes to keep in mind would be coffee and tea, diners, any food images from fruits and vegetables to wine and chefs, diners, advertisements and tin signs. Let your imagination run wild and you can't go wrong by just choosing art you love.

► BEDROOM

The bedroom is the place to display anything you love, especially since it's not usually on display to visitors. Choose family treasures and build a visual theme from that. Anything that enhances your place to escape will help create the perfect sanctuary.

► BATHROOM

Create a calm, spa-like atmosphere in your bathroom with pale soothing colors and zen-like artwork. Some choices to consider might be floral prints and botanicals, shell or beach decor, bamboo and Asian motifs.

► ENTRYWAY OR HALLWAY

Don't overlook your hallway, foyer or entryway as a place for great visual impact and decorating. This is an ideal small space to go bold with a splash of color and texture.

► KIDS' ROOMS

Kids love to personalize their spaces too, so pick a color or theme that revolves around their interests. Some theme ideas could be animals, planets and space, Disney characters, sports, games and toys. Keep safety in mind when choosing art for over a bed. Never hang something heavy and breakable such as mirrors or glass. Instead choose tapestries, canvas or plexiglass.
