So, you've just moved in or maybe a little ', and your house still does not feel like home. It lacks character and individuality, which can only bring an infusion of personality. Your home is not really until you tell your story. Furniture without accessories, artwork and accent pieces is like a cake without icing. It is up to you to determine the flavor and decorations desired and appropriate.
A good starting point is the soil. Whether youWall to wall carpet or enjoy the beauty of the wood are essential carpets. Without anchoring mobile groups with carpets, pieces are cut helplessly on a sea floor coverings. Rugs help to create groups of seating and dining area, where riders can define traffic patterns and are used as accents. Carpets can be of any suitable variety, developed or even eastern border with Tibet, flat-woven kilims and how dhurrie, sisal, wool or leather scrap (a shaggy texture appearance), Stacking (aSeries exciting is replicating famous works of art) and even tea towels (a great do-it-yourself idea.) carpets are truly art for your floor. Remember, the size of the carpet. To minimize cost, an accent is exactly that, just enough to color, add interest and focus the floor. Carpets in the 4x6 or 6x9 day average of usual, with most mobile of the board (except maybe the table and an ottoman). Cover the floor completely hidden by a carpet of beautyFloor, while the carpet is covered with all the furniture. In the case of a dining table, make sure the rug is large enough that the chairs are "falling" when it is pulled out. Also note that the model and the scale selected to compliment the wallpaper and wall coverings, and pay particular attention to any rug with a central medallion. It can be lost or distorted in a table leg or lose their effect when the balance. Rugs are truly art for your floor!
The most common focusoverlooked and so simple to integrate plant. An extension is not really attracted to green. Look at the corners of your rooms, especially if they appear empty, and add a tree or perhaps a basket of mixed plants. Real or silk is not an issue, maintenance, and if you can have a green thumb. It is advisable to invest in quality silk plants, because they can last forever, with some sprinkling of cleaning (in many cases, a spray bottle with water, it's even easierproposed plants dependent on the care of the source.) are not now such a variety of styles, colors, shapes, sizes and flower. And have a precious opportunity to add life (literally, if real) of an interior. In general, a basket near the fireplace (in the summer months, keep a large basket in the fireplace to avoid watching the black hole), a tree in a corner, perhaps a wreath above the mantel, cast brass accents in a library, a bouquet of flowers on the table (couch or coffee), allviable ways to add green to a living room / great room. Next to a tree in a corner, a stunning arrangement of a runner to focus centered in the dining room (and a wonderful eye reflection worthy of the big mirror, you want to install.) Green is an important part of any room, even those with a minimalist view. It 'a fast and effective way to capture an element of nature, keep in touch with the environment in some way, small.
Once youadded to a collage of various carpets and pieces of green, it's time to consider your collection. Now pretend you have none, with everything of value ever spared. I bet you do not see why a collection is nothing like a couple. If you have three of anything, you have a collection (yes, beer bottles and jam jars to count!) So, get busy checking the drawers moldy old, drafty attics, closets and stowed under the beds of miscellaneous. Collections are not to be enjoyedaway caked with dust, some cardboard coffin hidden. They are wonderfully surprised by the wealth they have always been around, and with a dose of imagination can integrate into your home. The only rule of collections, is something that (and not someone else, only you!) Means that have no intrinsic value, but must have a history and sentimentality. You can create new collections when they are inspired by a piece or a specific event. Try to collect an odd number asThe display is much more interesting. This makes it easy to learn and to prevent the piece from the strange and incredible never-ending quest for a series full of good things. Remember, the collections are always more effective and interesting when shown in its entirety. For example, if you have a cache beautiful chandeliers, and showed them only in pairs in a collection of points throughout the house, the visual effect would be weakened, losing its elegance. During this same candle rubbed on thedamask table runner rich against the table again their "WOW". Perhaps your collection is more casual and everyday objects like plates. Try viewing this crockware colorful mixed Crate and Barrel or Pier 1, or arrange for a collector of kitchen cabinets with lots of greenery. A collection of disks can be on a track that runs along the dining room or kitchen or massaged displayed in a showcase. Even a montage of magnets may be issued with funUsing the magnetized cards (organize), in addition to the usual surface of the refrigerator. Life is much more exciting and fun when the pieces around us admire and appreciate. Leave your home, talk to the collections that will show you.
Now that you've begun to add personality to your interior and your home is more like a feeling of home, your work of art must (and will) be addressed. Works of art, while two-dimensional in the rule, also includes sculptures in a wideRange of materials. It 'important to focus on creating a balanced mix of works. To maximize flexibility, try to limit myself to no more than 3 (sometimes 5) works by each artist. Chances are that even with a variety of tastes, the works that you are able or choose to work in harmony with each other. Sometimes reframing will be necessary to realize the full potential of a piece and give the impression that more effectively with other works of art. On a real laces, you can create your ownArt. Distinctive fabric parts can be easily attached to the stretcher does not need to frame. Works of art for children can be made cheaply and it is usually better preserved than glued to a wall or stuck on the fridge. Old prints can be taken for a song in flea markets, then the frame yourself with inexpensive frames. To reinforce a simple wooden frame from the center of discount local, glue on dried flowers, shells or even buttons, pieces of Broken China (mosaic style), or stimuli(In most craft stores). Enjoy a traditional kind of a miracle! Create a display of them, a fireplace, on the length of a table, or molded into a wall (photo gallery). (Note: For best effect, hold an edge at the top or bottom of all the hanging pieces, and put it right or left side consistent with the spacing between the pieces ..) Again, as in the collection, art of any Gender should mean something to you not only a stain on the coverWall!
The most important lesson is to customize your home, the conversion will be won in a house, this is the right place. As is only natural for your friends, your mother, and you can feel your design - remember, your house yourself and what you want is what is really important. The possibilities are endless!
