Creative Decorating Ideas for Your Home
Home decor has assumed such huge business proportions that there are companies and individual firms dealing with just decorating a house. Home decorating has become a specialized field with experts advising on the kind of home decor best suited to your home. However, you are the best judge of how to decorate your home as you are living there and understand best the kind of amenities and other needs.
Over the years families have become smaller and so have homes. While decorating a home you should always keep in mind the space available in your home, the storage space that you will need and the fact that the decoration you choose for your home does not affect its functionality. Another major aspect to consider while decorating your home is your budget. Home decoration need not be expensive and at the same time can be very effective. The only thing required is creativity to utilize the space to its maximum capacity. The motto while decorating your home should be ‘No available space should be unused or under used.’
One way of creating an illusion of space is to use glass. Glass in its various forms can add elegance to a home. Add a piece of stained glass on the living room wall or a small bedroom can be made to look big by adding a huge mirror glass to the opposite wall of the bed. If your taste bends towards the rustic look, you could use earthy colors on the walls and add furniture made out of hardwood that has a rough look about it. This will add a very country type of look to your home. A tasteful blend of various styles and textures added with accessories and furniture from different origins and period can give your home an eclectic look.
In case you are looking for a very Indian traditional type of decor, a low bed seating with dark earthy shades or even furniture made out of cane wood with light and earthy wall colors can do wonders for your home. However, if your personality is more outdoorsy and you like the sun and wind, you can use floral prints on your sofa covers and table linen, plump cushions in bright colors and soft furniture with pine and oak. A city person who loves the modern way of living can use clean lines and simple contour and bold colors. Uncomplicated furniture of either glass, slate and metal define the home decor of such a person.
These are a few decorating styles that you can work with as suits your personality. You can also add curtains in soft shades with any of these styles of decorating and make your home the reality of your dreams.
