Fortunately, making a statement with unexpected home decor doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. Check out these simple ideas from your favorite Naples furniture store to make your home more playful and attractive.
Choose a Funky Wallpaper to Make a Statement
Forget everything you thought you knew about wallpaper. Gone are the days of dated floral prints that were anything but endearing. Modern wallpaper comes in a variety of styles, colors, and designs that make adding color and texture to any space in your home a breeze. Best of all, they’re cost-effective and easy to use (think: peel and stick). Whether you’re looking to create a focal point with an eye-catching accent wall, breathe new life into a stark bathroom, or put a distinctive touch on your boring living room, wallpaper is a great option to achieve the one-of-kind look you have in mind quickly, easily, and affordable.
Make Your Ceiling the Focal Point
When is the last time you thought about how your ceiling looked? While ceilings aren’t usually at the top of homeowners’ design list, they should be. Decorating your ceiling is an easy way to enhance the personality of a room without overwhelming it with furniture and accessories. Here are some ideas to transform your ordinary ceiling into the star of the space:
- Paint it a dramatic color or use a pattern, such as stripes.
- Cover it with bold wallpaper.
- Pair it with a statement light fixture, such as a brass chandelier.
- Hang plants from the ceiling to draw your eyes up and make them seem taller.
Incorporate Unusual Wall Hangings
The items you hang on your walls matter. Regardless of how gorgeous your paint color, furnishings, and home decor are, if your wall hangings are uninspiring, the overall aesthetic of the room will certainly be affected. With this in mind, be sure to choose wall hangings that are both stylish and interesting. Sure, displaying artwork and photographs is one option, but why not have some fun with it? Using unusual items, such as plates, hats, musical instruments, or baskets is a wonderful way to give your living spaces a facelift while adding a surprising twist that is sure to make your home feel contemporary and fresh.
Arrange Furniture in a Unique Way
One of the easiest ways to make a bold statement through your home design is to arrange the furnishings in your home in a distinctive way. This is also a fun way to put a unique touch on every room in your home. Here are some ideas to help you get started:
- Pull furniture away from walls.
- Position bulky pieces in the corner of the room, rather than in the middle or against a wall.
- Create zones in large rooms for different activities, such as sitting, sleeping, eating, working, etc.
