It seems when house shopping comes around, the bigger the better. But how do you make massive rooms into cozy spaces you can call home? AOL's resident decor expert Kelly Edwards gives us the inside scoop on turning big rooms into cozy hideouts:



One of Kelly's great tips is to divide the rooms with a touch of color. Different colors used on walls (either patterned or solid) will create the illusion of separate rooms. Not a fan of too much color? Try molding! Because you can also use furniture or architectural detail to delineate space and split the rooms, molding works well.

To put molding on the walls, first measure the area and purchase your trim accordingly. It's a good idea to get a little more than your measurements to cover your mistakes and trimmings. And yes, there will be mistakes, as every good homeowner knows.

Good luck!
