Do you feel like you want to change something in your home,
but you aren't sure what it is?
Sometimes the urge try out a new paint color, experiment with some designer rugs,
or even redecorate an entire room can come out of nowhere. The home décor bug can be very contagious,
but there are some people who want to revamp their style but they aren't sure
how. It can be difficult to translate
your person style into interior design projects, but if you're having trouble
there are some things you can do to make the entire process easier.
Study the current room
It may seem strange to figure out your new décor scheme by
looking at what you already have, but the way your room is currently decorated
can say a lot about your personal style.
Take a look at other rooms in your house so you can get a good idea of
what colors and fabrics you're partial to.
This won't just help you get a better idea of what your personal style
is; it'll also help you figure out what you don't want to replicate in your new
design.
Imagine your dream home
Take a moment and think about your ultimate dream home. What color are the walls? Do you see a lot of paintings, or do you see
pictures of your family and friends? Are
the floors made of beautiful tile, or are they covered in luxurious
carpeting? It may be awhile until you
can afford your dream home, but you can get some decorating ideas from it.
Think about items you've bought
What was the last item you purchased? Maybe it was food, maybe it was clothing, or
maybe it was something else entirely.
You may have purchased something because you needed it, but think about
what you drew you to the item you bought.
If it was the color, think about using the color to decorate with. If it was the texture or feel of it, you may
want to get couches covered in the same fabric.
Look online
If you're having trouble finding your décor style, you may
be able to get some ideas online. Find
interior design bloggers and see what
they're posting about, or look for an online publication for interior designers
to see what the pros are doing.
