Hello World! Welcome Friends! If you love anything soft and feminine, then that’s probably a huge factor in how you decorate your home. However, sometimes when you move into a place that boasts a very modern design, it can be difficult to give your home a feminine touch.
If you’re over the modern or minimalist look and want something a bit more classic for your home, then follow these tips on how you can give your home a more feminine look.

Incorporate Feminine Fabrics
The right fabrics and linens can make a huge difference in the look and feel of your home. When decorating with a feminine look in mind, use fabrics like faux furs, cashmere and lace. You can incorporate these fabrics in a myriad of ways. For example, a faux fur rug adds a beautiful, soft touch to a bedroom. Cashmere throws tossed on couches and chairs also help to bring a more feminine feel to a space. Lace curtains, such as those from Paul’s Home Fashions, will also help to soften the look and feel of your living space.
It’s The Little Details
Often, what makes a home “feminine” isn’t the basic design style or the architecture. Rather, it’s those little details that can help to soften up a space. If you want to make your home feel more feminine, add little touches such as scented candles, flowers in vases or framed watercolor paintings. You don’t have to spend a fortune to achieve your design goals.

Go For Color
There’s nothing feminine, soft or inviting about a blank white wall. If you want to give your home a soft and cozy feel, use color whenever possible. You don’t have to opt for anything too bold or crazy. You can use pastel colors to inject your living area with some brightness while still keeping everything soft and subdued.
No matter where you live or what sort of space you’re working with, it’s possible to give your home a more feminine feel without spending a fortune. If you follow these tips, you can get the soft, inviting and feminine living space of your dreams.

Thanks for the info. I hadn’t thought about white not being romantic as you point out, but thinking on that, it is hard to girly it up.
