Hello World! Welcome Friends! Decorating a house is a fun but overwhelming job. Your home is a place where you’ll probably stay for years or even decades, so you need to begin the journey by making choices that make it feel comfortable and inviting. Each space and room of a house needs to flow together, but also reflect the purpose of the room. For instance, a bedroom needs to be cozy and relaxing while a kitchen needs to be practical.
If you’re starting from scratch, there are some tips you can follow that will make the process easier. First, you need to know your measurements. Starting directly with buying furniture can be a mistake if you don’t know the size of bed or sofa that will fit in your rooms. Have all the measurements handy for reference when shopping for furniture, rugs, curtains and other items.
Second, you need to create a floorplan for each of the spaces to determine the placement of the furniture and the orientation of the room. You can do this with just a pen, paper and scale or make use of software. Third, you need to figure out the overall feel that you’d like your home to have depending on your lifestyle and tastes. You can go sleek and modern, traditional, formal or relaxed.
Once you have the above figured out, develop a budget and begin shopping for furniture and furnishings for the different spaces in your home. Here are some tips on how you can go about it.
Living Room
A living room is multifunctional, as it serves the purpose of serving guests and can also be a space for relaxing, studying, family gatherings and entertainment. All of these should be kept in mind when choosing furniture with which you can create a conversation area.
Bedroom
A person spends a lot of their life in their bedroom and it is a place to relax and unwind. Choose a bed and bedding that’s comfortable and of good quality. Color choice can also make a difference in how you sleep and wake up. Early risers might prefer a lighter room while late risers might want to go darker. Lighting can be on the softer side.
Bathroom
Think about the style of bathroom you wish to have. If you want the feel of a spa, you can choose more elegant tiles, fixtures, cabinets and sinks. Lighting can also make a big difference. A tub would truly make it feel sophisticated. If you have a small bathroom, you might want to make it feel bigger with a large mirror.
Kitchen
Kitchens can be expensive to design, as they involve installing appliances. A kitchen needs to be practical with all the cabinets and storage within easy reach and should also have ample space for storage. You can opt for appliances based on your needs and habits. The backsplash and cabinet colors are great ways to bring interest into the kitchen.
Apart from the interiors, you should also consider decorating your outdoor spaces, such as a patio, with City Seamless Patio Covers, lighting, seating, plants and pops of color. Outdoor spaces often go ignored in terms of decoration but a well maintained space will become an extension of your home and add value to your everyday life.
