Confused about accessorising your home? Don’t know how to do it within a convenient budget? Accessories look great when mixed with our most personal treasures, which in turn add warmth and interest in your space. Have a look at these simple yet effective suggestions and they’ll surely brighten up your space!
- Flower power. Start with the most basic accessorising item: fresh flowers. Choose a random colour to offset your room’s palette. Notice the layered effect of the bright yellow orchids against the gorgeous coral wall covering.
- A splash of zebra. A zebra pattern looks appealing everywhere. It adds an aura of exotic sophistication. Zebra print comforts home with traditional, modern, vibrant and eclectic styles.
- A starburst mirror. A starburst mirror creates a great focal point over a large-scale piece like a bed, a sofa or a fireplace. Notice this white starburst mirror which creates the fun colour on the wall.
- A beautiful bowl. Bowls range in style from modern to traditional and can be filled with anything. Bowls filled with beads serves just right for the textural effect for your home.
- An art grouping. If you have one good print, think of how good it would be if there were six. Revamp your space with some artistic imprints.
- Glazed pottery. Balance a collection of like-colored pottery pieces on a mantel or a shelf.
- A group of white. A collection of white accessories looks right in contrast to a bright colour such as blue behind these shelves. Group bowls, candlesticks and vases will do wonders to your space.
- Candlesticks. Do you have a collection of candlesticks shoved somewhere? Show them up on a sideboard or an entry table. These candlesticks with varying heights but still little similar would do. It’s not a compulsion to match them all; a balanced grouping of different candlesticks would work.
- Sculpture. Sculpture gives you an immense opportunity to personalize your room. Display something that portrays your interest or a hobby — for example, this ocean-theme piece on the table or the African headdress on the hearth shows just the perfect taste with perfect combination.
- A tray. Many of you might feel a little quirky reading this. But, a tray is a useful accessory and can look great. It can be perfect for a surface on an ottoman. Smaller trays also blend a vignette on a nightstand or an end table to give a perfect look.
