Touch Up Your Waiting Room With Tasteful Accents

When you walk into your waiting room, does it make an impression? Do you feel like it's up to date and earning the compliments it deserves? If you've answered no to these questions, it might be time to give your space a facelift. Lucky for you, we can help you do it on a budget. Today on the blog, we'll highlight tasteful accents and cool ways to bring your waiting room back to life. Enjoy!

1.) Accent Chairs

Old school wood guest chairs will always have their place in traditional waiting environments. That being said, if you're looking to make your waiting room pop, fashionable fabric accent chairs are the way to go. We love the cost effective options from Modway. Their designer chairs are perfect for the waiting room and offered in quick shipping upholstery options. Modway accent chairs like the Delve, Dock, and Tide are all available for under $350.00.

2.) Lighting Fixtures

The lighting fixtures you select will say a lot about the overall vibe of your space. This season, industrial style fixtures with exposed Edison style bulbs have been super popular. If you're looking to jump on board with this growing office accent lighting movement, we recommend checking out local thrift stores and swap meets. If you have a good Flea Market in your area, give that a visit too! Unique lighting fixtures can be found at all of the above on a budget.

3.) Side Tables

This one is easy! Cool side tables for a waiting room or reception area can be found just about anywhere. They'll do wonders for your interior. This year we've seen coastal side tables and DIY restored tables making their way into the waiting room. On the flip side, glass top tables have been on the way out. If you're not looking to get crafty, check out the in-stock options from brands like OFM and Global. They've got lot's of hot tables to choose from that don't cost a fortune.

4.) Area Rug

Simple, effective, and easy to integrate. An area rug will make your waiting room feel revitalized. If you're not loving the new styles found at your local home store, consider looking for something a bit more retro. Tapestry style rugs are making a comeback! When remodeling a waiting room for your business, don't be afraid to think outside the box. As you'll want to distinguish your interior, be bold within reason. Strive for classy, unique, and stylish pieces that make a statement without being too over the top.

5.) Accent Wall

Last but certainly not least, you might consider devoting a weekend with coworkers to create a cool accent wall in the waiting room. Hardware stores now offer painting kits that make this DIY project a breeze. Select colors that relate to your business, perhaps those from your logo and you're on your way. In addition to painted accent walls, you'll see a lot of exposed pallet wood being used these days. A wood accent wall will make bright colored chairs look fantastic! If you're loving the look, we recommend getting help from a handy husband or reasonably priced contractor. Once complete, consider putting in a few floating shelves to showcase your important achievements. Voila! Your waiting room is instantly revamped.
