A Few Things to Keep in Mind While Painting Your Home!

Diamond

We keep bringing you home décor tips but this time around we thought of helping you in getting your basics correct. The basic that we are talking about here is your wall paint; yes, you heard it right, because wall painting isn't as simple as picking out your favourite colour and painting your walls. Choosing wall paint should take time and patience as it is of utmost importance; let's face it, if your walls look tacky, there is no way you can make the rest of the house look classy or elegant or even presentable!

The first and absolutely foremost thing is to not make painting your walls the first thing on your to-do list. You need to buy fabrics, carpets, upholstery and some basic furniture and then see what goes best with your overall décor scheme. The next mistake you should avoid making is to not choose a paint colour based on what it looked like as a paint sample at the store under fluorescent lights. Thou shalt also not decide on paint, fabric or floorings on your visit to a store and carry samples home to see what they look like in your home!

Do not make the mistake of choosing your favourite colour as the colour for your walls as you may tire of seeing it so much, but with that said, it doesn't mean that you settle for tepid shades if you have something bold in mind. Remember, the key to a good looking house depends on how good a balance you are able to create. Also, pay some attention to the psychology of colours, as in, using red or orange for play rooms and not bedrooms. This is something we have discussed in detail in past editions. Last, but not the least, do not forget about colour undertones and never force a colour scheme to make things match.

Quick and Easy Home Decorating Hacks!

Home is where the heart is and our hearts are set on making your homes the most perfect places to hold your hearts! Home décor is a taxing task and more often than not, you run out of ideas and think that it's time to turn to professional help. We hate to be the ones to break it to you but interior designers too do not have any specific magic formula to revamp your home. They just play along with their creativity and imaginations, keeping in mind some basic rules. So, instead of paying someone to have fun while decorating your house, why not just do it yourself!

Let's start you off with some of the basics; we're sure you will get your imagination to do the rest for your home décor. The first rule is to always allow breathing space for your furniture and space them out so that they can stand out. This way, it's also better for your budget as you can pick a few quality statement pieces, rather than hoarding up on junk. Most of us get this wrong but hanging artwork at the proper height is a very important aspect of making it look stunning. So, next time around be sure to hang it around 60 inches from the floor.

We know how cool a themed décor looks, even so, we suggest that you resist the urge to go all theme-y with your interiors and instead put together stuff which plays off each other, rather than matching with each other. The last thing you need to remember is that you need to play with the lighting around the house. Use a lot of layered lighting, dim and bright lighting as one central lighting fixture will never have the same magical result as layers of lighting. Above all, don't forget to add something personal to your décor scheme, something that will bring a smile to your face every time you look at it.

Timeless Home Décor Tips!

All of us would love our homes to look straight out of an interior design magazine but that is a little difficult, given that the pages keep changing! What we mean to say is that home décor trends keep changing and it's not feasible for most of us to change our décor with changing trends all the time. In such a scenario, we thought of coming up with some classic home décor ideas which will lend a timeless appeal to your home. The best part of a timeless décor scheme is that it allows you to play around with the latest trends and transform the look of your home from time to time.

There will be never a time when this has been said enough, minimalism is your best friend in all aspects of home décor. Beginning from not crowding your shelves to having furniture in proportion with the size of the room, in other words, refrain from overcrowding. Every season brings with it that one colour which you have to have to make your décor pop out, but it isn't practical to get your walls done in orange, yellow or green each time trends change. So, we suggest that you stick to accessories, like throw pillows, vases, flowers or other artwork for that dash of pop.

It will be better if you start buying furniture that is meant to be used and not only admired, get rid of those coffee tables and angular chairs to make room for some pretty practical furniture. Next, we come to the most important aspect of home décor, i.e. lighting. Firstly, make sure that you allow enough natural light into your house. Choose window drapes that let in the sun and if the place does not have much natural light reaching it, opt for quality lighting that lends a natural looking glow to your place. When going for wall paint, ignore the latest trends and settle for the classic shades like plum, caramel or ochre, as they lend a classy and cosy feel to any space.

Last but not the least, nothing looks better than a clutter-free and organized home and for this, you need to have smart storage options. Incorporate storage cases in as many furniture pieces as possible and make it a part of your design aesthetic. Most importantly, have fun while doing up your space and go trendy with items that can be replaced easily from season to season.
