There are always ways to make your house look posh without even spending a lot of money. What matter is how you decorate it and what you use to decorate it. When you have a large house with high ceilings and massive spare rooms there are so many things that you can incorporate in it to make it homely and beautifully. Some of those things can be nice big and warm fire places or even beautiful waterfalls. These days it is not very uncommon to have a waterfall in your living room. It might seem like a bit much but it really just depends on the look of your entire house and its size and the size of the waterfall. There are a lot of ways to incorporate a waterfall and bring a little of the natural outdoors into your house.

There are various types of waterfalls you can look at and choose from to best suit your décor, all you need to have is good decorative taste or you can even hire a home décor professional to help you out in this sphere, but you can be certain that you will be spoilt for choices. First you have the wall mounted fountains. These are rather small and are put up against your wall and take up the least amount of space. So if you have a relatively smaller room you can always go for this type. It is classy while still remaining modern, chic and stylish. They are beautiful and can also be musical if you like but this probably is not the classiest way to have a fountain – playing music and such. This is generally the most opted for waterfall design for a house and it is spectacular in the way it has beautiful streams of water flowing down a pebble like surface or even small filtered stream. This is by far the most elegant design of waterfall there is.

It could even have a luxurious bubble trail; there are a lot of things you can do with a fountain like to spice it up a bit. You can also keep live fish in these waterfalls, which is amazing. Another type of waterfall you can have is the slate waterfall. These waterfalls are as minimalistic as it could possibly get. It is just streams of water flowing down a direct slate or slab of marble. What people tend to focus on with this type of waterfall is the design of the marble or slate and the water flowing down it is just a secondary trait and simply adds to the design of the slate. These kind of waterfalls can be wall mounted as well depending on their design or they can stand alone as well. Usually there are delicately and intricately designed natural objects like leaves and trees spawning the surface of the slate giving it some texture and beauty beyond its minimalism. You can also have a number of abstract designs on it as well, it really depends on the look you are aiming for and what you like or would like it to look like. Then there is the table waterfall and water fountain. This is if you have a rather average sized house but want something like a waterfall in it nonetheless. Some of the best show pieces are cascading shallow cups in a large golden bowl that can be used as a base to a table. These are rather popular and does not require much to invest in.

There are the boring and rather drab basin fountains which are nothing much to look at all and is a plain and unattractive piece of décor since it does not do much but take up space really. This kind of fountain is not very popular at all since it does not really help to beautiful its surrounding area. What does look good and is energy efficient are the solar fountains. They run on solar energy so that when the power goes out you do not have to worry about waterfall looking awkwardly odd in the middle of the room for everyone to see. Fountains are rather beautiful investments and all they really are is a decorative piece really but they do an excellent job of sprucing the place up and giving it an unearthly look of elegance and poise. If you ever decide to invest in one then you should be prepared for all the doting admirers when they visit your home.
