Follows these tips to bring a customized touch to your home!
Monograms: An inexpensive way to personalize any room. Add them to bed linens, towels or a cozy blanket left draped over a chair. Many stores offer a monogram service for a fee when you buy their products.
Family heirlooms: Why keep your grandmother’s keepsakes in an old trunk in the attic? Display old photos and collectibles on console tables and walls throughout your home. Even if it’s an odd piece, like the barn door from your great uncle’s dairy farm, there are creative ways to incorporate it— possibly in your backyard garden? By displaying heirlooms, you’re adding an instant conversation piece and making something old new.
Frame-ables: Give accomplishments their due. Showcase things you’re proud of by putting them in frames. Word to the wise: don’t clump pictures together. Give each picture its own frame. Then, arrange the frames in an odd numbered grouping. Odd numbers give more visual appeal than an even numbered set.
Photos: Get creative with a photo editing software. By playing with the crop and saturation, you have the opportunity to create mini-works of art.
Art: All rooms can benefit from a well-placed piece of artwork. A small painting will look strange as the focal point on a large wall, so consider the size of your space first! Use a painting as a focal point or to bring together all the colors in the room. The best part is, art doesn’t have to cost a bundle to be an original. It just has to mean something to you. Plenty of DIY sites can show you ways to create your own. But if making art isn’t your thing, you just want to appreciate it, then acquaint yourself with budget-friendly options.
