When it comes to getting the most value out of your home, making use of each and every room is imperative. With that said, in some situations -- for example, when a child has left the nest or you simply bought a house with one too many rooms -- you'll be left with a room (or two) that has no purpose.

Unfortunately, when this is the case, homeowners will attempt to downsize into a smaller home due to the feeling of having too much space.

Thankfully, with a few subtle (yet effective) decorative lighting upgrades — through the use of innovative decorative fluorescent light covers — you can totally transform these once-useless spaces into complete themed rooms. Continue reading to learn about our themed room decoration ideas.

Showcasing many different types of flowers, these light covers can be placed on your ceiling or walls to create a faux window into a nature-filled scene. You could even try to combine your flower light covers with real plant life and flower-themed furniture items such as pillows or area rugs.
