If you want to add a personal touch to your home and even create a truly unique space, here are some ideas you might want to consider. If it all seems overwhelming, start small and make a few small changes to just one room.

Choose the right light fixtures

Installing light fixtures can help provide the perfect illumination to any a room. And good lighting is at least half the formula for great design, aesthetics and function. If you’re looking to add  personality and design via the lighting in your space, install a chandelier or hanging lamps that are suited to your style. Consider modern fixtures for a contemporary feel, or go for an antique chandelier if you want a more classic vibe. Modern mountain home plans often include chandeliers as its a great way to add a decorative element to any space, especially in places with high ceilings, such as stair wells. And of course a chandelier, no question about it, adds grandeur to a home, together with personality and character. Of course, if you’re looking for something more modern, consider adding LED or fluorescent lighting to your room, there are so many options on the market today.

Choose your furniture wisely

When it comes to furniture, we all have preferences in terms of shape, style, and even color. If you’re looking to add more personality to your space, choose pieces that are comfortable but also create visual impact. Combining different styles or furniture made from a range of materials can help create a unique look and feel for your home. Remember that you can mix vintage pieces with newer styles, if you’re looking to update  your decor by purchasing just a few pieces rather than a total overhaul. However, if you’re looking for something that is more unique and really meets your needs size wise and color wise, consider choosing furniture that is customized. The options are virtually limitless, so get some inspiration from magazines or professionals and go for it!

Artwork into your decor

Nothing personalizes a home like a piece of original artwork, or a series of artwork, hung in a row, or gallery wall style. When buying artwork, consider the location in your home, how often you’re going to change the art, and if it fits your aesthetic. Once you have an idea of those factors, take a look around and see if you want to have portraits, landscapes, or abstract pieces. Try getting a large piece for the living room, and a few smaller pieces for other areas, such as the bedroom, hallways, and dining room. Artwork can also be a collection of wonderful baskets, vintage sports equipment or architectural elements, so don’t feel you need to stick to something framed.

Add some plants

Given the strength of the houseplant trend, why not use them in your home? For those who don’t have indoor plants, first try something low maintenance, like a giant succulent in a glass planter. Plants of all kinds add lots of beautiful color and interest to any room, not to mention life! They’re also a great addition to your home decor and can be used practically anywhere you choose. Just be sure to take care of them by watering them regularly and providing the recommended light to help them grow.

Decorating your home and making it a place you love is all about adding your personal touch. It’s important to remember that although there are many many decorating trends out there, it’s always better to consider your style and personal taste when decorating. By doing so, you’ll end up creating a space that is unique and truly yours.
