When you choose a home, you want to make it feel like yours. You can put things that are meaningful to you and reflect your own style. Whether you decide for your home to be country, modern, Victorian or something else you want your home to feel cozy. A home should be a place that can be your own color palette. Maybe you are partial to pastel colors from the Victorian era or maybe you like stark colors that are modern. It’s all an individual choice as to what we put in our homes. You want your style and taste to continue throughout the home making it feel whole. The pictures you hang on the walls should reflect your style; the type of carpet you pick for your rooms should reflect your style. If you are not sure what your style is or even where to start with your decorating, I suggest you purchase some interior decorating magazines. Look through the magazines and find out what appeals to you in them. Start by purchasing small items for the home and grow bigger from there.
Maybe you like country so you go out and buy some curtains that reflect your style. Possibly you like modern interiors so you go and buy a picture that is modern. Start with one room and work your way around to another. Color palettes at paint stores or in magazines can help you decide the colors to paint the walls or maybe you want to wallpaper. Perhaps you just want to keep your walls white and have the art on the walls stand out. It’s possible you want to pick something in the room to be a focal point such as the fireplace or a painting. It’s all a matter of preference and what works for you.
Don’t be afraid to experiment with different colors, styles or textures until you find something that works well for you. Your room should have texture, color and some kind of continuous theme that ties the room together. Enjoy your time creating the atmosphere you would like to have in your home. Happy Decorating.
