Home Accessories – Ways To Brighten Up Your Home

Home accessories can make or break any room. Sometimes you walk out of a room and all you can remember is that weird sculpture or that astonishingly beautiful vase. You have to be careful in choosing any accessories you put into your house.

The art of choosing the best accessories is no piece of cake. But if you keep on reading this article we will provide you with some simple tips and tricks to know which home accessories to use where.

Home Accessories

The first thing you need to know about home accessories is where to put them. The answer simply is: EVERYWHERE! Each corner can have a piece small or big but the real question is which piece of decor belongs where.

This question will take us days to answer so lets just keep it simple and we will give you some tips to help you get started.

How to Use Accessories to Brighten Up Your Home

  • Use the correct size of art. No matter what’s the piece you want to add it has to be appropriately proportional to the surrounding furniture.
  • Layer your accessories. Don’t just add a cluster of accessories, but create a mini theme where some accessories complement each other. This method works best in bedrooms and bathrooms.
  • Contrast the color scheme when choosing big items
  • On the other hand smaller accessories should follow the room’s style and color palette
  • Asymmetrical is the new symmetrical. Don’t put your accessories on a specific order, let the room speak for itself and create a flow instead of a line.
  • The walls are your biggest canvas, make sure you include some wall art. As it doesn’t take up much room yet it can bring the whole aesthetic together if you glamour it up with some accessories, photos or posters.
  • Rugs can be used for decorating, they can add a touch of color to a dull room or you can even use them as wall art.
  • Throw pillows are overrated, surely you can get some for your bed. But decorating you whole house with throw pillows is no longer a trendy look.
  • Lights, ceilings and floors can be used as house accessories. For example, you can put RGB lights or add a stars mural in your bedroom’s ceiling.

In the end the biggest tip we can give you is try out unconventional accessories. The first person to use mason jars in decorating probably didn’t think it would be that big of a hit. So you should also follow you gut and take some risks while decorating!
