Hanging suncatchers in your windows is an easy way to add some life to the space. The best ones catch the light just right without blocking your view outside. The great thing about suncatchers is that you can find them stores all over the world, but you can also make them yourself if you can't find what you want. They'll cast light all over your walls, making you smile every time you see them.
