A home’s décor reflects the personality of the owners. It can be minimalist or whimsical. Those decoration choices should create a cohesive look throughout the home. It all comes down to a matter of taste, and when it comes to decorating your home, there are no wrong choices.

Kitchen

You don’t often think of decorating a kitchen as you would other rooms in the home. There aren’t many places in the kitchen for throw pillows! However, you can incorporate some decorating accents in your style of kitchen that can elevate the look of the space. You can fill various see-through canisters with different shapes of pasta and arrange then in a corner of the counter. A section of your kitchen wall can also be converted into a chalkboard where the family can contribute their own creations. You can also create a small cookbook library shelf with vintage kitchen gadgets as bookends.

Deck or Patio

A home’s deck or patio can become an extension of the family’s living space. There are all kinds of tips for improving your home by decorating your deck and other places outside of your home. One beautiful idea is to set up planters with blooming flowers. These planters can be arranged around the deck to create “hot spots” of color. Your choice of patio furniture can also elevate the deck area. You want to look for comfort and durability. This is where you can put those accent pillows to use. Just make sure they are designed for the outdoors.

Living Room

In many homes, the living room and family room are one. This is where the family gathers to watch television and entertain guests. A terrific feature for a living room is a mantelpiece. This can become the decorating anchor for the space. The holidays aren’t the only time of year that the mantelpiece can be decorated. You can incorporate seasonal elements throughout the year. Because it is a focal point of the room, you might want to put family photos and vacation keepsakes on display here. Throughout the rest of the living room, smaller accent pieces can be placed on end tables and shelves that tie in the look of the room.

Decorating a home doesn’t have to happen all at once and it doesn’t have to be permanent. You might discover that you have some favorite pieces that you would like to keep up all the time. There is nothing wrong with rotating other choices in and out. Above all else, have fun with your decorating!
