Home décor is an art in itself. You add a new dimension while
you decorate your beloved home. When it comes to decorating it, you don’t need
to have any restrictions. However, it is said that there are some rules which dictate
the process and should never be questioned. Ever! We are going to bust some
home décor myths. So here it goes.
White is not always right:
It is said that the color white is perfect for every room,
especially for the ceiling. That’s not always right. It’s a popular belief that
white ceiling makes your room larger, brighter and brings positive energy to
home and your lives’. You can play with
any color of your choice for the ‘ideal ceiling’. You can even apply white
color in your ceiling but with black stripes.
Don’t mix pattern with prints:
Many people are of the view that mixing patterns with prints
doesn’t work. You can mix different types of patterns with prints. Using your
common sense will be the ultimate solution to this problem. It’s only your
vision of the ‘dream home’ that should be the vital one. Placing white colored
cushions on your bed sheet with blue prints looks amusing. You can also use
velvet curtains with patterns around the room and even can place a green sofa
against the yellow wall as the background.
You should not experiment with your vintage assets:
People share a special pride for possessing vintage assets
ranging from age-old furniture, gadgets and even clothes. However, many people
hesitate about experimenting with their vintage assets. The sky is the limit
when it comes to experimenting with your prized vintage assets. You can paint
your old dark red table or even put a bright new age bed sheet on your
protected vintage bed. This creates a marriage between the two worlds, the Vintage
and modern.
Mixing Blue and Green doesn’t work:
Many people follow the notion that mixing blue and green
color does not work. According to them, it won’t be appealing to the
on-lookers. Even though blue and green are known to be the cold ones in the
color scale, mixing or even applying both of these colors in a proper way will
be appealing to the viewers. You can spread a green bed sheet on your bed with
blue pillows over it. Mixing of these two colors adds cool dimension to the
room.
Sofa is the most important feature of the living room:
Many people are of the view that sofa is the most important
feature of the living room. But is that true?. Certainly not. You can make any
item of your living room it’s most important feature. Items like cushions,
curtains, tables, television, vases, etc can also be the special feature of
your living room.
In the end, it’s likely to say that myths put barrier to
your home décor. Your decision and creativity are the solution to put an end to
it. Experiment with different colors, styles and items in order to add new dimension
and life to the home of your dreams.
