    Need to brighten up a room? Better than a lamp may just be a piece of illuminated furniture! As there are plenty of sconces, table lamps, ceiling and floor lamps to wade through in your quest for the perfect one, perhaps thinking outside the conventional lighting department could help. No, don't rip down your curtains. Try instead a table with the glow of a lamp inside, but be warned-- tracking down these fancy furnishings isn't easy as they're certainly a not on top of everyone's list. They are, however, if you're looking to transform your place into a posh pad. Illuminated furniture creates an ambiance unlike that of any spotlight. And, if your lighting concept involves your tabletops, the things that adorn them will see a new light of day. Click through the slideshow for a sample of some shiny surfaces!

    Pot Your Plants In Something Pretty!

    It's the little things that make a house a home. To make us happy, we put things we like in our homes -- like lighting, art and throw pillows. Plants are one of those home-warming articles that are essential. Having a bit of green in every room is a great way to keep some fresh energy flowing in from the outdoors. So if plants make us feel comfortable in our homes, why shouldn't our ferns and cacti feel comfortable in their homes? While the living, breathing creatures we keep in the picture window and on the coffee table don't voice their opposition to the plain, rust-colored clay pots, it's hard to not appreciate some prettier planter alternatives. Even better, a plant that's outgrown its living quarters is really just a great excuse find a replacement -- and perhaps even a new room motif to match! Especially now that your houseplants have the opportunity to see their wild, un-potted cousins of summer thrive outside through the windows, it's important to give the aloes and orchids of the inside a little love as to not feel jealous. Enjoy these slideshow picks for some fun accents to your green-filled abode!
