7 Simple Styling Tricks to Elevate Your Home Décor

Interior decorating is an exciting journey towards creating a home that truly reflects you. And while the process is exciting, we all encounter little bumps along the way. The good news is, avoiding common mistakes can transform your space into a timeless haven you'll love coming home to. Here are seven simple styling tricks to help you create a home you absolutely love: 

1. Curate your clutter

We all have treasures we cherish, but sometimes they need a little organisation. Stylish storage solutions, like woven baskets or sleek bins, can help you declutter while adding a decorative touch to your space.

2. Spotlight your star pieces

Rather than overwhelming your space with every collectable you own, showcase a few of your favourites and rotate the rest. This keeps your displays fresh and allows your most beloved pieces to truly shine.

3. Find your furniture fit

Before you bring home a new piece of furniture, grab a measuring tape and envision how it will fit in your space. Opt for pieces that complement the size and style of your room, and remember, mirrors can work wonders to create the illusion of space.

4. Embrace the greenery

Whether you choose real or faux, a few well-placed plants can breathe life into any room. Mixing real and faux plants can give you the best of both worlds: the vibrancy of nature with the convenience of low-maintenance care.

5. Drape it with drama

Let your curtains kiss the floor (or even puddle a bit for added flair). Hang your curtain rods close to the ceiling to create the illusion of taller windows and a more elegant space.

6. Roll out the right rug

A rug can be the anchor of your room, but the wrong size or pattern can throw things off balance. Choose a rug that's scaled to fit your furniture and the room itself. Neutral rugs are versatile and complement colourful décor, while a bold pattern can add a burst of personality to a minimalist space.

7. Tame your tech

Don't let cords clutter your carefully curated space. Hide those wires behind furniture or tuck them into cable management boxes for a clean and polished look.

 

With these simple styling tricks in your toolkit, you'll be well on your way to creating a home that's both beautiful and functional. Remember, interior decorating is about having fun and expressing your unique style. So, experiment, play around with different ideas, and discover what works best for you and your space.
