How to Use Homeware and Decor in Each Room
Living Room
Start with cushions and a throw to soften the sofa. Add a floor lamp for evening warmth. Finish with a vase, candle holder and one ornament on the coffee table or console.
Bedroom
Table lamp and jewellery tray on the bedside table. Cushions and throw on the bed. Mirror or artificial plant in a corner to bounce light.
Entryway
Arch or round mirror above the console. Tall vase and candle holder on the surface. Coral or hourglass as a second decorative layer.
Home Office
Table lamp for softer task lighting. Small artificial plant or ornament on the desk. A 30-minute hourglass as a focus timer and decorative detail.
How to Style a Room
A Simple Method That Works Everywhere
Layer One
Soft Furnishings
Cushions and throws set the colour palette and add immediate warmth. Choose a considered set of colours and repeat them across the room for a calm, unified feel. Start here before anything else.
Layer Two
Lighting
A floor lamp or table lamp creates depth and warmth that ceiling lights cannot deliver. Choose 2700K-3000K bulbs for a natural residential glow. Add lighting before surface decor - it changes how every other piece reads.
Layer Three
Surface Decor
Vases, candle holders, ornaments and trays finish shelves, consoles and coffee tables. Group in odd numbers at varying heights. Mix materials - one ceramic, one glass, one metallic - for a surface that looks considered rather than collected.
Styling Tip
Most Australian homes skip layer two and go straight to decor. Adding a floor or table lamp first is the single change that makes the biggest difference to how a room feels at night.

WHY SHOPICA?
Quality You Can Trust
Shopica is a Sydney-based, family-owned homeware, décor and furniture store founded by Eliane El Khoury. What started as a passion for beautiful, considered interiors has grown into a trusted destination for Australians who care about how their home looks and feels. We curate cushions, floor lamps, mirrors, bedside tables, dining tables, outdoor furniture and decorative pieces chosen specifically for Australian homes. Every piece is held to the same standard we would demand for our own. We do not stock products simply because they are popular. We stock them because they are well made, beautifully designed and worth every dollar.
Our Sydney-based team understands how Australian homes are lived in. The open plan living and dining spaces that define modern Australian architecture. The need for furniture that is beautiful on the weekend and durable through the week. The importance of getting the details right, from the cushion on the sofa to the lamp beside the bed. We source every product with all of this in mind.
With Australia-wide delivery dispatched daily from our Smithfield warehouse in Sydney and personal customer support from a team that genuinely cares about your home, Shopica is here to help you create a space that feels as good as it looks. One considered piece at a time.
